Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Dear neighbours and gardeners,

Here's another great project from our DIY guru Jacob Leaf.

DEEP CLEAN

Gail from Henderson

Does anybody know what a 'deep clean' entails in a shop, hospital or anywhere. We hear about it often but have not been told exactly what it is. One 'deep clean' is not always anothers 'deep clean'.

Recipe: Mushroom Risotto

New Zealand School of Food & Wine

This is an ultimate comfort meal and an easy recipe to prepare at home. It is a rich and creamy mushroom risotto recipe is made with the specialist Italian short-grain rice, parmesan cheese, white wine, and mushrooms.
View the recipe in the link below.

PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY

Linda from Henderson

Lack of personal responsibilty over vaccinations to yourself and more importantly to other vulnerable citizens is now being rewarded by bribes in the form of prezzies, spot prizes, supermarket vouchers etc.
How about acknowledging all those who quietly became vaccinated ASAP.

How about acknowledging all those who quietly became vaccinated ASAP.
NZ standards have been turned upside down. Bad behaviour used to be punished, not rewarded.

Spark spam phone bill

Pam from Titirangi

I have just received a spam spark phone bill which looks just like to real thing. Colours and all. Please check your account number with any phone bill coming in. They are so realistic but this one came in on the wrong email account.

Covid Jab

Lyn from Te Atatu Peninsula

I'm fully vaccinated and, no, I don't know exactly what's in it - neither this vaccine, the ones I had as a child, nor in the Big Mac, or in hot dogs, or in other treatments…whether it's for cancer, AIDS, the one for polyarthritis, or vaccines for infants or children.
I also … View moreI'm fully vaccinated and, no, I don't know exactly what's in it - neither this vaccine, the ones I had as a child, nor in the Big Mac, or in hot dogs, or in other treatments…whether it's for cancer, AIDS, the one for polyarthritis, or vaccines for infants or children.
I also don't know what's in Ibuprofen, Paracetamol , or other meds, it just cures my headaches & my pains.
I don't know what's in the ink for tattoos, vaping, Botox and fillers, or every ingredient in my soap or shampoo or even deodorants. I don’t know the long term effect of mobile phone use or whether or not that restaurant I just ate at REALLY used clean foods and washed their hands.

In short ...

There's a lot of things I don't know and never will…

I just know one thing: life is short, very short, and I still want to do something other than just going to work every day or staying locked in my home. I still want to travel and hug people without fear and find a little feeling of life "before".

As a child and as an adult I've been vaccinated for mumps, measles, polio, chicken pox, and quite a few others; my parents and I trusted the science and never had to suffer through or transmit any of said diseases.

I'm vaccinated, not to please the government but:

* To not die from Covid-19.

* To NOT clutter a hospital bed if I get sick.

* To hug my loved ones

* To Not have to do PCR or antigenic tests to go out dancing, go to a restaurant, go on holidays and many more things to come ...

* To live my life.

* To have kids go back to school and play sports.

* For Covid-19 to be an old memory.

* To protect us.

Wooden Stairs

Anita from Titirangi

We'd love some old wooden stairs that may be being chucked out during local renovations. It's for a children's hut we're building.
