Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

Our family does the big get together on Christmas Eve, so will be heading out the door soon. I usually make a certain kind of salad, and a dark chocolate mousse as well. This year I thought I'd try a raspberry one, that didn't work quite as intended (tastes nice but the texture isn't quite right), so I (impatiently and in a rush) went back to the good old chocolate one.

But since I was impatient, I messed it up and there are chocolate lumps all through it. Fail. That was yesterday, so this morning I made the third batch, which turned out fine like normal (since I was in a better frame of mind and actually paying attention to what I was doing).

So, long story short - I have vast quantities of b-grade mousse in the fridge, so that will be what we're eating for the next few days. Mousseaggedon.

Take the raspberry one anyway! If it tastes nice then people probably won't care, plus you can bring the good one as well so people can choose.
