This classic shortbread recipe is based on one from Edmond's Cookbook and is great to get the kids started on. Most shortbread recipes use caster sugar but I find that beginner cooks have greater success using icing sugar which is quick to cream.
Ingredients
225 g Butter, cut into cubes
225 g Flour
125 g Cornflour
125 g Icing sugar

After experiencing the run-around from traditional lenders, she came across Prospa on social media. They provided her with the funds she needed to open a new salon premises and do a complete fit out and refresh, all with an easy-to-manage weekly repayment plan that suited business cash flow.
Next step for Francis is to work with a business coach to grow the business further – and Prospa will be right alongside her.

Spread over two levels, this is the perfect family home for those who want to enjoy their precious relaxation time to the max!
Situated in the hub of the Bays, and equidistant to the facilities of both Rothesay Bay and Browns Bay is this gorgeous three bedroom home, capturing sun and views.
Complete with two living areas, there is ample family area, and also space for separation if required.
First level: Lounge / Family / Dining and Kitchen - leading to a sunny outdoor courtyard. Two double bedrooms, bathroom.
Second level: double bedroom, lounge with study/office area, leading to deck with urban and sea views.
Double garaging (with internal access) and ample off-street parking.
Only metres to Browns Bay Primary School, and zoned for Rangitoto College.
A short walk down to the well kept secret that is the "local" Rothesay Bay Beach and Reserve, and easy access from there onto the cliff top walkway, taking you to Browns Bay to the north, or Murrays and Mairangi Bays to the South.
Well sited for all the amenities of the Bays, shopping, restaurants and cafe's, close to public transport, and easy access to arterial routes.
1980's Build, and standing the test of time.
Exceptional opportunity for a lock up and leave.
Current owners are now committed to moving on in their next adventure.
Representing excellent buying, this is an immaculate home and property, family friendly and affordable, in the "Right Location".

The suspension comes after tensions between NZ Bus and union members as they tried to settle on a new collective agreement regarding pay and work hours. Union members had been declining bus fares from passengers, and planned to do so until Christmas before the suspension began. Now drivers will go without pay until Christmas Eve.
NZ Bus' biggest area is central Auckland, all of the Link services, and those serving the main isthmus arterials to eastern suburbs and along Mt Eden, Dominion and Sandringham Roads, as well as some to the outer west and northwest, and on the North Shore.
How has the bus driver suspension affected you? Let us know in the comments.
