Just so y'all know, chocolate mousse doesn't taste the same at all when you've mistaken sea salt for sugar.
That is all.

*laughs* and do tell the events that precipitated this post...
Oh, you will be spared the sordid details. It's just that SOME people will buy their sea salt in bulk and keep it in canisters where it can masquerade as sugar. Therefore, it must be such peoples' fault, yes? No? Really? Oh. Ok. Ahem..
Janna made a stupid mistake in the kitchen. It doesn't happen often and she's quite mortified. Yet she has chosen to tell all of you. Why? She enjoys pain and suffering, that's why. The speaking in third person she can't quite explain.
(And yes, Gracie, it did look lovely. In matters of utmost importance such as these, style and not substance is the vital thing (-: )
*laughs even harder* Maybe you should stick to potato salad?
Well, that would not actually be so tragic. It definitely wouldn't ruin potato salad - the sugar would help balance the acidity of other ingredients AND there's only a pinch of salt anyway. SIX tablespoons of sea salt instead of sugar makes quite a difference in mousse.
I will say however that my egg whites whipped up quite nicely. Had I not made that fatal error, the mousse would have been splendid.
C'est la vie
Perhaps you should make another for Celebration to prove you really CAN?
My dear girl. Of course I CAN make it. But it doesn't travel well or hold up very long, you see. Therefore, not good fireworks food. But good thought...
First you make the chocolate, then you poor the chocolate on the moose. If one needs an extra helping of sea salt, it's available in one of the many canisters with white stuff in it.
Yes! Let us find the moral or lesson in this sad little tale! White stuff in canisters is not always what it appears! Do not be fooled by outward appearances! Otherwise you will have chocolate covered salt and will have disgraced yourself!
I shall never make mousse again...
And how exactly do you know so much about white powdered substances, hmm?
I plead the fifth!
Try onion soup mix in place of brown sugar sometime. The meatloaf oatmeal chocolate chip cookies that result are quite something.
