OK, that's it. Sweden wins. Along with everything else, now they have a mysterious collective street art group – appropriately named Anonymouse MMX – making mouse cafes. Not. Fair. The roughly 1-foot by 2-foot storefronts are tucked into basement windows in Malmö, Sweden. They offer the city's small scampering residents an irresistible array of mouse delicacies – nuts, cheese, and the likes. The details are nothing short of delightful. “It’s just too darn charming to imagine a world where mice live parallel to ours but just slightly out of sight,” a representative of Anonymouse MMX told The Huffington Post. “They are built of things that we had laying around and also things we collected, like caps, lids from tin cans, matches, buttons, a lampshade, Italian stamps, etc.,” the representative continued. “The idea was to use things mice themselves could have collected and reused.” Here's a taste from their Facebook page. Be charmed, and expect cheese. For now, there are just a few spots, but follow their Instagram as the group promises to expand the Lilliputian offerings: anonymouse_mmx. Cheese out!
