On the Target product check on TV3 tonight, they road-tested store bought pancake mixes. The host pointed out that the most basic pancake recipes only have 4 ingredients, so it’s a little disturbing when the ingredients listed on a pre-mix constitute an entire paragraph! So in an endeavour to save you from the supermarket shelves, and maybe encourage you to …
Stunning Auckland sunset from our lawn, staining the sky tower bright pink I have been trying to get a pic of the lights at night since we moved in, this picture sucks but at least you get some idea of the fabulous view. There is a new boy on the farm and his name is Jim. He is a …
