Discovered another Kitchenware shop
The last time I visited Lake Havasu AZ I finally made it to the kitchen shop Desperate Kitchens.
Lets go see what's inside.

While I was in Lake Havasu City AZ, daughter and I stopped by the new Mexican market, La Carcineria on Lake Havasu Ave.
I found the perfect thing for hot chocolate loving BJ. I learned from him it's especially good with a shot of Tequila Rose, mmmmm.
Hot Chocolate Kit.
The Mexican style chocolate contains sugar and cinnamon. One of the triangles in a cup of coffee is heavenly.
Twirl the molinillo between the palms of your hands to froth the chocolate.
The recipe is 4 cups of skim milk and 1 tablet of chocolate in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Now here's where the molinillo comes in. Mix constantly with molinillo, or a wire whisk which is not as much fun, until mixture is frothy and starts to boil.
We spent too much time and almost too much money. We really zeroed in on the Mexican candy.
It was close but I got out with some candy for myself.
I took some of my kitchen equipment with me when I visited my daughter over Christmas. One of them was my good and heavy large cutting board. I use it every day over the kitchen sink for more counter space. I was miles from her house when I realized I left it behind, that and an inexpensive set of ceramic knives. Drat!!!!!
I stopped by Linens and Things in Yuma to pick up the knives. They also had some nice looking bamboo cutting boards but they didn't have the size I needed, so I waited to get back to San Diego to get one. I really like it. So far I've only chopped up some vegetables for the vegetable soup I'm making tonight. Got it's first scars :-( It's beautiful, environmentally friendly and light weight. I think I'll go pick up a smaller one also.
The grain on it is just beautiful.
