Diana, you’ve convinced me that avocado and mousse go hand in hand! I’m going to give it a go. Plus I really like the simplicity of this recipe.

Hi, Julia.
Great! I love the richness of avocado! Let me know how you like it, OK? I’m going to experiment with making chocolate pudding with cooked squash — it’s so sweet and has a beautiful texture. If it turns out, I’ll keep you posted.

An avocado and a moose hand in hand would make a great pic!
