froths the milk but could be improved on

Advantages: aerates semi skim or skim milk, fun initially,
Disadvantages: expensive on the batteries

...After trying cappucino of the instant variety, I wanted the real thing to compare it to, and decided to buy myself a frother. The Salter CRXR frother comes in a very sturdy white background box, with colour pictures of the machine and scrummy cappucino and milk shake on the front, pics and blurb on sides, and on the back just 5 points written out in various languages. Opening the box you find the machine securely seated inside because of the cardboard protection about it, alongside is the user guide in 8 languages. It is clearly and well written, starts with safeguards and precautions, battery installation, usage instructions and cleaning with the gaurantee at the end of the sheet, How did it fare? I found it difficult to put the battery cover back in place, and started to get quite annoyed, had to give it up and try...

Review of Salter Cafe Froth Turbo Milk Frother

~ Milk Tray ~

Advantages: Great variety, amazing tatses, luxury packaging
Disadvantages: price for some

...~ Milk Tray ~ Milk Tray chocolates are one of my favourite boxes you can buy from Cadbury?s. This week one of our colleagues brought a box in for us all to share. We usually have biscuit Fridays but this week it was chocolate. I only ever see boxes like this really at Christmas time. We never buy boxes otherwise and I hadn?t had Milk ray for years. Due to the demand and high quality the box was pretty much gone by noon. You have to be quick in this place, as soon as you?re offered you have to take one or you won?t get a chance. Even those on a diet can?t resist one of these cheeky choc?s. I am not a huge fan of chocolate myself, I mean I like the stuff but if I had to choose out of a bar of chocolate and sweets it wouldn?t be the chocolate. ~ Where did it come from? ~ The Milk Tray box is produced by the one...

Review of Cadbury Milk Tray

The best milk

Advantages: see review
Disadvantages: see review

...it was more expensive than the other milks, only by a pound but I am sure this would soon add up if your baby was solely bottle fed. The tub isn't anything fancy, it's not all bright and colourful with pictures of babies on the front like other formula tubs, instead it is a simple blue tub with a white polar bear on. It does not say 'formula milk' on it but 'breastmilk substitute' which suggests it is in a different league to the other formulas on the market. The tub itself has the information about how to make up a feed and how much your baby should be having. The lid is resealable with a plastic lid that clips back down. It is useful as it keeps the powder dry and sealed, but the lid is so very hard to open. It's not a case of just lifting it up, I still don't quite understand what it is you're meant to do to make it open but it...

Got Milk?

Advantages: inspiring, educational
Disadvantages: it did not cover Harvey Milk's entire life

...About Harvey Milk Harvey Bernard Milk was born during the era of the Great Depression (one of the worst economic downturns in modern history) to William and Minerva Karns Milk. Even as a youngster, Harvey was quite popular. Who would have ever thought that a person who seriously fought for gay rights was once a class clown? Milk graduated New York State College for Teachers with a degree in Mathematics and was active in the school paper. He later served in the US Navy in the Korean War. Afterwards, he took up jobs such as being an insurance salesman, a researcher and shop owner of a small camera shop. Along the way, Milk had a string of homosexual relationships. He seemed to gravitate towards younger men. He however, lived in a society which had laws that curtailed homosexuality. They were persecuted at that time. Milk later...

a shower with milk?

Advantages: see review
Disadvantages: see review

...Mrs B is a busy old bee right now that we have Baby B who seems to take up all of our time. It's not very often that she is able to find the time to have a luxurious bath and relax and she can't justify spending a fortune on luxrious bath products either but this doesn't mean that she doesn't want to actually have a spot of luxury now that she is so busy. Mrs B decided to treat herself to this shower milk last time we went shopping. After a very hectic week with a teething 9 month old Mrs B decided that she needed to feel human again and whilst we were in our local Sainsbury's she disappeared off down the 'smelly' aisle and came back with this bottle of palmolive. She declared that she needed it as she wantd to treat herself to something different to just a standard soap and that it was cheap and smelt good. Palmolive...

Froth without hassle

Advantages: Froths milk quickly and efficiently
Disadvantages: None

...The Aerolatte is one of those products that you think you can do without - until you buy one and wonder how you ever did without it. Priced £14.99, it may not seem that cheap but it is well worth the money and you will get a lot of use out of it. I had seen the Aerolatte milk frother on QVC several times and although I was fascinated by the demonstration, I didn't buy it. Then I went to the Ideal Home Show at Earl's court last year and there was an Aerolatte demonstration going on, on one of the stalls. I stayed and watched it, even more fascinated than when I saw it on QVC. The man who demonstrated it showed every which way it could be used, from frothing milk for capuccinos to milk shakes, to Horlicks and so on. I couldn't believe just how a simple device like this could work so well. I bought it at the special price of £12...

Cows Milk or Cow & Gate Milk

Advantages: added vitamins andminerals
Disadvantages: expensive

...Cow & Gate Follow on Milk... Jack is now an unbelievable 20 months old and I had stopped giving him any sort of formula milk when he was 1 year and moved him on to full fat cows milk. However he seemed to get cold after cold so we decided that maybe he needed the added nutrients that formula milk would offer him. We reverted back to formula milk several months ago and surprisingly he hasn't had a cold since so perhaps it has helped. When Jack was younger and on only formula milk for his food we used SMA milk but when looking at the price of SMA compared to Cow & Gate in the shops, most stores were selling Cow & Gate at around 25 to 30 pence cheaper. This may seem like a small amount but every little helps plus Cow & Gate sold a follow on milk which is specially designed for children from one year on. This is the milk we bought...

Milk Bottles - Bottles Of Milk!

Advantages: Cheap Price, nice packaging.
Disadvantages: High in sugars.

...Asda have a long term price off where you can buy three bags of these sweets (and others in the range) for £1.00 or buy each bag separately for around 35-40p (price varies). The sweets are all decorated nicely in clear bags (so you can be tempted by the appearance of the sweets) and with miscellaneous things on them. This one has a cow (just in case you didn't see the word milk!). The bag is 95g and for your money you will normally get between 35 & 40 milk bottles just under an inch high, this is a great amount for an adult or even to share amongst little ones. Each bag contains 316 calories & 50.7g of sugars so too many of these will definitely contribute to your next trip to the dentist. I would advise eating these in moderation and don't give them to your kids too frequently (well unless they've still got their milk teeth...

Review of Asda Milk Bottles

Milk and Honey

Advantages: Nice smell, moisturises
Disadvantages: None

...Palmolive Milk and Honey Liquid Handwash Back in 1898 a gentleman called B.J. Johnson from the United States developed a formula for a new soap made out of palm and olive oil. The product, Palmolive was so popular that he named his company after it. At the turn of the century Palmolive was the world's best selling soap. In 1928 they bought the Colgate Company to become Colgate-Palmolive. Today the soap is just as popular as it has ever been. They produce my favourite line of liquid soaps and have quite a few different varieties to choose from such as the hypoallergenic range and the florals range but for this review I am going to concentrate on the Naturals range, in particular the Milk and Honey smell. Naturals from Palmolive is a soap-free formula. The extracts of milk and honey are designed to leave the skin feeling soft...

Milk the Cows

Advantages: tastes better
Disadvantages: a little bit more money

...I do love milk especially when it is poured generously on a large bowl of cereal (preferably coco pops) I have found recently that this Cravendale milk is much nicer to use than the normal local farm milk. It costs only a fraction of the price more and for a 2-litre bottle you will be paying around the £1.25pence mark. This is about only 10pence more than getting the other cheaper milk. The taste seems to much more nicer and less gacky than the other milk that I used to use. This particular Cravendale milk comes in the same ranges you would expect from milk. This is skimmed, semi skimmed and whole milk. I always go for the semi skimmed but I have tried the whole milk and this i think is just as nice in flavour if not better than the semi skimmed. The milk itself can be kept for longer than the usual milk because it has...
