Looking for a last minute Christmas Recipe?

New Zealand School of Food & Wine

This is a great alternative to the traditional Christmas pudding.

The lemon syrup that is poured over these puddings just before you serve them gives it a delicious moistness and the fragrant citrus flavour is irresistible. It also works with oranges instead of lemons and you can replace the sour cream with yoghurt.

You can bake the puddings in advance but don’t make the sugar syrup until you wish to eat it. The pudding reheats well in the microwave for 2-3 minutes. I like to serve it with a dollop of sweetened cream or yoghurt and some poached fruit such as apples or pears.

Mid Town WaterCare Works start October - Info for Residents

CCRG from Auckland City Centre Residents' Group - CCRG

Mid Town WaterCare works are starting in October. To cater for growth, reduce wastewater overflows to our moana, & improve wastewater capacity.
This is by installing pipes, via bored tunnels, deep beneath Queen St, Mayoral Dr, Vincent, Marmion & White Streets.

Wastewater has to be maintained, if not future proofed and upgraded, there's no doubt about that. But it's also difficult to not be disappointed to have another 2+ year project in the Waihorotiu/Queen St Valley with significant construction impacts in 4 areas. If your building is none of these four areas, make sure your building manager and/or Body Corp is in touch with Watercare for all the info on how you might be affected, and what they are doing to mitigate impacts.
