I ordered one when you did your thread in November.
I've just received it (not dwelling on the WHOLE MONTH WAIT! 
)
it's fab!
I love the vortex 
the stirrer looks a bit flimsy though.
anyway, wanted to ask, before i try it - can you use it for hot chocolate (you know the stuff that you add water to?) and if so, do you have to put the water in first?
(asking before i try it cos i don't want to break it, cos might have to send it to santa...)
