Hooting through the Bathwash recently?
We stopped blaming each other and found the pump was pushing more out.
A nice little fix. A rubber band around the pump as shown will reduce the squirt.
Cheaper living everybody

Māori “threat” to Affordable 3 Waters was minimal. The terrifying governance was at a tier that acknowledged our partnership but was not at ownership or managerial level.
Many mayors didn’t even bother to check the lies inspite of being told. They failed their ratepayers big time.

Can anyone please tell me when my scallopini are ready? I have 2 plants one producing green, the other producing yellow at the moment. Any other tips for growing these? 🌱🇳🇿

Another awesome tip from the kitchen.
White spirits to melt even the most stubborn glue manufacturers use to keep wretched labels on.
Tried eucalyptus, meths, scrub, detergent but white spirits melted it. Try not to get it in inside of jar. Must wash jar after.
You’re welcome 🥰 #kikorangi 🇳🇿

Bought a range of pegs to try because I am sick of pegs nowadays breaking. They used to last - now they are brittle.

See that ridiculous RNZ is promoting Luxon today as well. Chlöes 68 spineless is more iconic than Luxon’s & Willis’s corny rehearsed quips. Link above #nzpol

No bias Elaine but I expected more from Chippy. Although I see he left an out by saying he had no recollection of this convo, doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. Curious and pleasantly surprised he would not appoint a person who had an affair in 2018? to a position of importance years later though.

Quirky but a taste sensation.
Sour cream rice crackers, homemade lime marmalade and Pam’s black label Camembert.
Idky? 😋

Are these cauliflowers ever going to flower? They have been in for ages and are just leaves with no discernible centre? When do you give up fellow kiwi gardeners? Thanks 🌱🇳🇿

NZ Foodie recommendation. Woody’s Freerange lovingly farmed bacon. Nitrate free. It’s delicious, crisps well
We usually buy nitrate free Hendersons (not freerange or always NZ sourced)
Sells other meats too, online/in select NZ stores
Have a look & try😋

Jevon McSkimming was a Master Manipulator. He well and truly sold the crazy, harassing, scorned woman lie to senior police, nameless MP’s (why?) and nameless media outlets who did nothing.
He is taking everyone down with him.

When you leave the French Stick in the car for 5 days and it goes hard… crostini.
The secret of rubbing raw garlic on freshly cooked crostini rather than my previously slightly bitter batches when I cook them with garlic.

Tama Potaka’s maiden speech - wonder what Gerry Brownlee’s toxic eye would think if it today.
“Performative acclaim?”
Sad how Luxon’s coalition govt has moved the goal posts in such a short period of time when NZ strength has always been our unity.

Lime Marmalade turned out well and I took Bluesky advice and added Vanilla. Not at all bitter so good idea removing pith 💛

Careful volunteering to make lime marmalade. 🍋🟩
It’s not easy like the others.
It can be bitter so I’m hoping cutting the pith out will help.
Any other suggestions #kikorangi?
