This past weekend, a very special thing happened. And no, I’m not talking about the vintage walrus tusk chalice that I found at the estate sale on Highland Ave.
No, something much grander happened this past weekend: A girl that I’ve never met threw her annual “Winter Warm Up Party” in Toronto, and served Whynattes to approximately 35 of her closest friends. Her name is Shiri, and she makes up for her marginal photography through her support of Whynatte, Darfur, and other important international social causes.
From what I hear, one of the more gregarious attendees stood before the party, and gave a riveting speech about how they were a part of the first Whynatte party ever held in Toronto, and how this marked an extraordinary moment in history. Shiri reports that it was like listening to a young Robert Kennedy.
Anyway, we’d like to give a venti sized “thank you” to Shiri and her friends. We are humbled by your support for Whynatte, and hope that you will spread the the word wherever your travels take you.
Shiri only took one photo of partygoers actually drinking Whynattes. Her excuse is that she took down a few Whynattes, was loaded like a stolen uzi, and then lost track of her camera:
Okay, this is a stretch, but you see those two jugs? No, not on the girl in the white tank, the jugs on the counter in the background…They’re filled with hot latte, and were used to make Whynattes:
It’s not every day that you see an old fashioned “hand pump” style espresso machine like this one:

“loaded like a stolen uzi” — in a word: splendid.
I don’t know who these folks are, but they have descended on our humble whynatte tribe like some conquering race from the north and they must be honored. It is the way of our people.
The glorious thing is that even I, the CEO of Whynatte, don’t know who these people are. But I love them. Each and every one of them. I would like to keep them all in a medium sized cage, suspended from my bedroom ceiling, and let that one guy work on that handheld latte pump. That would be ideal.
can we turn http://www.whynatte.com into a dating service (or my personal dating service) Everytime I come to this site I see a picture of a girl (whom i have never meet) and I think to myself “gee I would like to know that girl, she is very attractive.” If some how whynatte.com could make this come true, not just for me, but maybe someone else, I would be about 68% happier.
Thanks,

Mike,
That’s a fantastic call. Wonderful, actually. I should have a facebook type feature, where you can scroll over a person’s picture, and have an option of sending that person an email. It’s a great idea, and I think it’s probably doable.
Until then, you can just tell me which of these slices of brisket you would be interesting in broiling, and I will see if I can get you hooked up. Will you travel?
I was the Whynatte Toronto hookup thank you very much…Shiri is one of my best friends
so what is the status on whynatte.com/dating. I am waiting by the phone, which is in my pocket so i am still quite mobile. Toronto is far, but love knows no bounds.
You guys are hilarious! Maybe one day we will have a U.S/ Canada Wynatte retreat!! Until then..we will support from the North…=)
