It featured this mouth-watering item:



I think we'll just stay home. It's supposed to snow, anyway.

I have a picture somewhere of the marquee of an actual diner here in cville that had that on it. It cracks me up every time. The kids and I still say chocolate mouse when we drive by. Yes, I am still 10 in the humor department, and I don't see that ever changing.

Now, now, it could be worse. Chocolate Mouse is much more lighter and fluffier than Chocolate Moose.

(Have you ever seen "A Chocolate Moose for Dinner" by the late Fred Gwynne [yes, the actor]? It's AWESOME.)

It's just like chocolate mousse, but there just isn't as much of it. Oh-and elephants are afraid of it!

If you can have a chocolate bunny on Easter, why not a chocolate mouse for Valentine's Day? (Though a chocolate heart would have been more traditional!)

If you can remember Kliban cartoons..."Love them little mousies, mousies what I love to eat, bite they little heads off, nibbles on they little feet"

They're cheating a bit. It's actually just a relabled chocolate bunny.
