Donating proceeds to South Island Flooding
I received a newsletter from the fund site Give a Little about the S I flooding and thought i would sell my Organic Soaps and donate 90% of the proceeds for the South Island flooding. The 10% i keep is for the ingriedients to make my soaps.At least when you buy 1 of my soaps you are getting something for your donation. If you want to come and have a look or bring some friends just email me at andrea.taylor@xtra.co.nz
Below are just a small sample of my soaps,i also make lip gloss,bath bombs and body moisturizers. Baby Soaps come with a wee flannel and all are gift wrapped.
I am happy to post if you cant come around just let me know what you would like.
I will copy and paste the proceeds from my bank account at the end of the month to show how much you all contributed,thanks so much. I live in Mission Bay.

Smoke in Mt Wellington
Smoke has been seen coming from the crater of the Auckland maunga Mt Wellington.
Images of the smoke began appearing on social media on Friday afternoon.
Around 1.45pm, Fire and Emergency (Fenz) shift manager Josh Pennefather told the NZ Herald a crew was fighting a fire of about 60 square metres in size.
”It’s spreading up hill … [but] there’s no property at risk at this stage,” Pennefather said.
Six fire trucks were in attendance working to contain a grass fire that's spreading up the maunga.
A helicopter was on its way to assist firefighting efforts, he added.
At 2pm, Pennefather shared that the fire was contained and they were working to extinguish it, including “keeping an eye on a whole bunch of hot spots“.
