My DD's first BF worked for Cost Plus (now called World Market) - he
gave me a milk frother for Christmas (and espresso pot) one year.
Wish I knew were that darned thing wound up... it disappeared after we
remodeled the kitchen. I didn't use the coffee pot very much, but I
really did like that little milk steamer and gave it quite a workout
during subsequent winters - long after he became a footnote of life.
