Shoutout to all the MEN going through a lot, with no one to turn to, because this world wrongly taught our males to mask their emotions 👍😊

So here’s a couple.
Baking powder mix:
2 tbsp baking soda
2 tbsp cornflour
4 tbsp cream of tartar
It’s better (and cheaper) than the bought stuff. Use it the same as commercial baking powder.
Ciabatta
500g plain flour (about 3 1/2 Cups)
1/2 tsp white sugar
1 1/2 tsp dry yeast (check the back of your fridge for a forgotten jar. It lasts forever there)
1 1/2 tsp salt
450 ml warm water (tap is fine)
Olive oil
Mix your dry ingredients together (preferably in a bowl)
Mix in the water (don’t worry about being gentle)
Rub oil all over, around and under the dough with your hands (think wet play dough)
Cover the bowl with glad wrap or a tea towel and leave to double in size (takes about as long as a movie, so go watch one)
Preheat the oven to 200C
Pour the sticky mess into an oiled and floured tray (a big one), or into an oiled and floured loaf tin (or whatever oven proof dish you like.
Just remember, the wiser it is, the flatter it will be, the less time it will take to cook.
Cook for 30-40 minutes. If you want a softer crust, put a dish of warm water in the oven to steam the dough. I like it crusty.
To check if it’s ready, lift if out of the dish (don’t use your hands, unless they’re made of asbestos), knock on the bottom, and listen for a “hello possums!” (or a hollow sound).
Enjoy. It will go a little dry if kept out, but it toasts like crumpets. Yum yum.

Welcome Your Day
I go to bed thinking of what to do the next day,
A constant thought that keeps me at bay.
Rises the sun and reminds me of my duty,
For the day ahead I fail to see the beauty.
Life will be so much more wonderful,
If you are not so distressful.
Have a Good Morning 🌞🌞🌞🌞

If money was no object, which house
would you pick to completely redo and make your dream home???
I have always been so intrigued by old abandoned houses. Out in a field all sad looking, abandoned and forgotten. I wish I could go bring them all back to life and
make them pretty again. ❤

So walking on the farm we walk into a deer carcass with it's head chopped off !! Who do we report flagrant water pollution to? This is the Tuki Tuki River - a brainless idiot has shot and killed the animal and and left the carcass to rot in the river! Do we contact police? HB Regional Council?… View moreSo walking on the farm we walk into a deer carcass with it's head chopped off !! Who do we report flagrant water pollution to? This is the Tuki Tuki River - a brainless idiot has shot and killed the animal and and left the carcass to rot in the river! Do we contact police? HB Regional Council? Who do we report this horrific sight to? Worse - we had a couple of German tourists with us (in our bubble on the farm) who were mortified thinking it was normal farming behaviour. Take it from me - the farmers around here are ropable about this! I have not been allowed to post the photos because they are simply horrific...you can only imagine what it was like to see it.

These snaps, taken this hour, show why the spread of the Covid 19 virus is spreading so fast in the USA.
These are aircraft in the air.

One day, when my children are grown, I hope they still come through the front door without knocking. I hope they head to the kitchen for a snack and slump on the sofa to watch TV. I hope they come in and feel the weight of adulthood leave them, for they are home.

Rotorua police 🚨 did a fine job of setting up road blocks out of the township but many were still using side roads to escape. Also noticed that here in hastings too.... People don't realise that the ones who are staying home to save lives are the ones looking out our windows watching and seeing people do these things.... Not to be nosy but because there isnt much else to do!!! We are all going to suffer cause some prick wants to self isolate in their holiday home. Shame on you!

Within two weeks, we have delivered over 5,000 face shields, but we are still hearing the calls of many. As the government and DHB’s publicly assure us that all necessary equipment is readily accessible, the demand for our face shields continues to grow daily, with requests for 30,000 shields.
If you would like to help us help them, sign up to volunteer at shieldsup.org.nz, or make a donation to ensure we can continue to produce and distribute our shields to protect our frontline heroes.
ShieldsUp, offering protection to Kiwi’s against COVID-19.

So who lives in the very early 100's on fredrick St and insist it's OK to have mates over, play loud music.

Families have and are losing. Loved ones, not just to the virus but to other health issues and they are not able to be there with them...
People are losing their jobs because companies cannot keep going because of no company income.
People are losing their business because they are required to follow level 4 lockdown.. And you who live at this address feel you have a right?? If other neighbours close by know who they are please name and shame... Because if I did.. I would!!
PS. Have filed a police covid 19 complaint
Hi All, I hope your staying safe in your bubble. It is important to support local business's now and after lockdown. Here's some places you can get good food online.
