Thank you for all the well wishes over the past couple days. It warms my heart to know how many lovely, caring people there are in the world. I think foodies are a special breed of caring people. I have my blog enabled so that every comment comes into my inbox. They are most often the first emails I read. I am like a little kid getting presents. Your comments are very much appreciated by me and I want to thank you.

ok i am SO SOLD on this one. love this Lori!
chocolate and mango is such a unique combo and I'm very intrigued. Sounds yummy! I had chocolate covered pineapple slices once and those were to die for as well.
I know what you mean...comments ARE like getting gifts!
first of all, i love the name. secondly, i love the dish itself--so creamy and light, but with an unexpected combination of flavors! bravo. :)
I think chocolate & mango together sounds so wonderful
Uh, did I miss something? I'm usually slow with the jokes but ......? Hope everything's okay!!
I'm not digging the chocolate part but the mango's a whole other story! Mango Mousse? Yes, please!
