Spending too much on weekday lunches?

Radhika from Redwood

Kia ora neighbours,

Do you feel you spend too much on buying lunch at work?
Is time or lack of inspiration (or both) the problem?

One interactive weekend class covering a variety of easy, yummy, nutritious recipes could change that for you!
GF / DF / Vegan / Vegetarian / LCHF ? No problem, there will be heaps of ideas to tailor to your requirements.
A new one-off class is being offered by Papanui High School's buzzing Adult Community Education Programme, where an easy Sunday morning of fun cooking will load you up with whanau-friendly recipes and ideas. Plus, you take home all what you cook during the class as well.
The recipes I will be sharing will reflect a crossover between my Indian roots and my Kiwi lifestyle. Delicious flavour combinations that will pack a punch and make each working meal a happy meal :)

When - Sunday 28 February, 10am to 12:30pm
Where - Papanui High School's spacious, well-equipped kitchen classrooms
Course fee - $76 (excluding cost of ingredients)

For more details and to register directly with the school, please click on the link below (scroll down the page to find the course titled CREATING INSPIRED WEEKDAY LUNCHES AND SNACKS WITH FLAVOUR AND EASE) -

If you have any queries about course content, please feel free to drop me a line at dishfulthinkingnz@gmail.com

Looking forward to seeing you in class!

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Addictive Eaters Anonymous

The Team from Addictive Eaters Anonymous - Christchurch

After ten years of depression, my life had hit rock bottom

I remember being ‘different’ around food for most of my life. This included things such as being the person who had two cream buns at morning tea when everyone else had one; eating icing sugar by the spoonful directly from the packet; and being the family member who went into the kitchen after dinner to eat the leftovers. There are numerous other examples – too many to list. I could overeat anything. If I couldn’t get my preferred favourites (e.g. chocolate), I’d be eating the vegetables.

Poll: Do you have a go-to adverse-weather checklist for your family? ☔⚠️

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Press, the same low-pressure system that lashed the North Island over the weekend is now making its way south, bringing heavy rain and strong winds with it. It’s a soggy start to the week for many of us.

With more wild weather on the cards, we’re curious: do you have a go-to adverse-weather checklist for your family? Or are you more of a “grab the torches and hope for the best” household?
