pure happiness....

I have an important question to ask....is there anything better on this planet than Julia Child's chocolate mousse? As I was preparing it, my knees were already beginning to buckle when I dipped my finger into the batter and taste tested the magic....what heaven!!!

This evening's menu will include lamb chops in a mustard garlic marinade; broccoli with a fresh hollandaise sauce; and baby roasted potatoes....mmmm....and before you ask; yes, I did watch Julie and Julia the other night; and yes, it did inspire....however, that being said, it is NOT the easiest cookbook to read despite its claims, but the results are truly amazing.....

So tonight we will indulge in some incredibly wonderful (and very fattening!!!) selections from Mastering the Art of French Cooking...

and just to torture you...here is a pic of the mousse....
