Torbay Plunket are currently having some landscaping work done at the front of the clinic and as part of this we are going to be creating an outdoor play area.
If anyone has a small wooden row boat that they no longer need and would be happy to donate to us, it would be much appreciated.
It does not matter if the boat is damaged, as we are planning on painting it etc. before installing it in the play area.
So please get in touch if you, or anyone you know, may have something that would be suitable.
Thanks for supporting Torbay Plunket!

Eggplant is definitely a popular ingredient in Russian and Ukrainian cooking and it tastes amazing when prepared correctly.
Ingredients for Eggplant Spread Recipe:
2 big eggplants, peeled and diced
2 bell peppers (preferably red, yellow, or orange), diced
2 to 3 medium carrots, grated
1 medium onion, finely diced
3 medium tomatoes
1 tsp salt, or to taste
1/2 tsp black pepper, or to taste
Extra light olive oil to sauté
How to Make Sauteed Eggplant Spread:
1. Place a large non-stick pan over medium/ high heat and add 3-4 Tbsp oil. Add eggplant and saute, stirring occasionally until softened and moist (15-20 min), adding more oil if needed to keep it from sticking to the bottom.
2. At the same time, in a separate large skillet, add 2 Tbsp oil, diced bell pepper, grated carrots and finely diced onion. Saute until golden and softened (10-15 minutes). Combine with eggplant mixture
3. Add diced tomatoes, season with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper, reduce heat to low, cover and simmer 1 hour, stirring occasionally. It is done when there is no liquid pooling and the mixture is a spreadable and still somewhat chunky consistency.
Serve eggplant spread with crusty bread. So delicious!
Moreover you can buy different kinds of eggplant spread in our store.

Hi neighbours, Val Davies from Wainui was shocked to crack open an egg with three yolks inside. She was even more shocked when she learned her chicken had laid a one in 25 million type of egg. An egg-spert said double-yolkers are rare, and triple-yolkers very, very rare.
