lifeasdaddy - The IKEA milk frother gathers devotees.

  I mentioned the other day that amongst Ed's treasures is a milk frother.

It was a present to Ed from his Aunt Lauren; it operates on 2 x AA batteries, and he plays with it by watching and listening to it whir when he turns it on and off.

It came from IKEA and I see on the Economist's Free Exchange blog that it has created great enthusiasm amongst adults too, who use it to froth their milk for coffee.

There's a quick  explanation of the economic theory behind the excitement too.

A thing of beauty is a joy forever.
