Do you have a favourite among the winners?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

A pūriri tree hideaway in Raglan, a super-energy efficient home in Cambridge, and a space that’s a mix of Pākeha modernism and te ao Māori are all winners in this year’s Waikato/Bay of Plenty architectural awards.

Twelve ‘stunning’ residential projects were recognised, along with another 14 that spanned commercial, public, educational, urban design and interior architecture, in the region’s Te Kāhui Whaihanga New Zealand Institute of Architects’ Awards this year.

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫

💡 A Little Brain Buzz for You⚡

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

I have two faces, but show you only one.
I once had guests, but now have none.
I’m rarely bloody and seldom blue.
I’m often promised and sometimes new
