It took less than 1/2 hr to make and turned out very good. The recipe called for walnuts, but I didn’t have any, so i substituted it with Horlick malk drink mix. Quite good! It made it a malty flavour. Ask me if you want the recipe!

First I tried Loblaws, I couldn’t find it myself so I asked someone. They are very stupid:”What a milk frother?”

I tried to explain to them what it is, albeit, I sounded quite stupid. “It a spinning thing that makes milk foam.” In the end, they didn’t have one.

So onto The Bay hoping to find a decently priced one. They had one, it was $29.99. $29.99!??! Why are they charging me $29.99 for a stupid metal prong stuck on a motor? I left hastly. I give up, I’m going home.

On my way home, I saw this store:

04192009117 04192009115 04192009118

This store is amazing! How could I have missed it all this time? They get all this kitchen stuff for LESS! Spent some time, walked around. Alas, I have found my milk frother. Guess how much? $5! Still expensive IMO but better than $29.99… They also had all these coffee pots, moka pots, and french presses. (Stephen if you read this they have cheap french presses, check out the picture!) The also have a cheap espresso machine they sell at The Bay for $100 for $60 and they’re assortment of random kitchen stuffs is very complete including an avocado slicer.

If you need kitchen stuff, go to this place first. This locations @ Yonge & High Tech (north of 7)
