Over the Hump, Baking and Mice

Still pregnant folks!

I've been baking A LOT lately. I bake a lot regardless, so the fact that I am baking more than usual, says a lot. There is currently the following diet killers in my kitchen (it's ridiculous, really):


-Cranberry walnut zucchini bread
-Chocolate chip cookies (made with 1/2 butter & half shortening, for texture)
-Pumpkin chocolate chip bread
-I made ahead and froze cookie dough as well, just in case I'm out of commission.


This morning, I saw a mouse in broad daylight next to my stove and royally fa-reaked out! Aren't mice SUPPOSE to be nocturnal? ha ha Funny thing is, mice don't particularly bother me as much as bats do. We tend to see a mouse or two every September/ October. We live next to a massive community garden and when the weather begins to get cooler, the mice have a go at our townhouse.



I hate mousetraps and refuse to use any type of loose poison; anybody have any mousetrap alternatives?
