Brown paper bags
Is it just me, or are the brown paper bags in the supermarket getting thinner? I bought 6 mandarins, folded the top over and the bad split. It took me two bags, and the lady at the checkout took them out of the 2nd bag to weigh them, so that i was not over charged.👍
I also had a leak in a tray-packed chicken, which dripped onto a bag and guess what happened.
I know for a fact we throw out more produce than we used to, through not being able to see inside the bags, let alone these silly incidents.
I am not complaining, just pointing things out.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
