How can there be bad kittens? I look around at the shredded piles of toilet paper and I see only good kittens who sometimes do bad things. That said, it is pretty hard to shake the sense that Tangerine is truly a bad, bad kitten pretending at occasional goodness -- what's with all the glowing demon-eyes in the photos!!

[This was Tatiana going crazy here while we were making Chocolate Mousse]

Chocolate moose


We're also going to make chocolate mousse!

This recipe is from Chris at work. He says he got it verbatim from a friend named Frank who is an executive chef in Tahoe. Tatiana and I have made this once before, and so now we're practicing so as to get good at it!


10 oz Chocolate Baker’s squares, unsweetened.

1 ½ cups Coffee reduced to ½ cup coffee

Brandy (save some for the mousse)

3 cups of Heavy Whipping cream

Powered Sugar to taste (at least a cup, if you have good taste like us)





Reduce the coffee in a sauce pan (or make a double/triple espresso and you’re ready)



Melt the chocolate in a double boiler, stir often (make sure the chocolate doesn’t burn or sieze. If you want to make it easier,just melt it in the microwave).

Add the reduced coffee/espresso & brandy; at the beginning of the melting process.



Stir until mixture is smooth. Place in ice bath and continue to stir.

When mixture is cool to touch, add whipping cream and beat w/ mixer on high.

Beat until soft peak (or desired consistency.)



Add Powered Sugar to taste (I do during the mixing).
