Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Just as honeybees pollinating orchards provide a service that benefits humans through fruit production, birds provide a valuable service too. What native birds do you see in your garden?

Hey neighbours,

All New Zealand police officers will receive new stab- and bullet-proof vests in a $20 million roll-out over the next three-and-a-half years.

The current vests - which were introduced in 2006 - are stab-proof, but special vests are worn by any officers involved in firearms call-outs.

They have passed their warranty, but remain "safe and fit for purpose", says Police Commissioner Mike Bush.

What do you think about the new armour? Are police officers safe using the current vests? Are you surprised the existing vests aren't stab- and bullet-proof?

Yes you do! Our Triple Cheese Mini Muffins are the perfect snack – just the right size and shape for little hands.

Better still, they’re a snap to make, especially if you have ready-grated tasty and parmesan cheese from Mainland in the fridge.

For the more adventurous eaters, finish each muffin with a little wedge of Brie, Noble or Blue cheese. You might not be able to resist sneaking a couple for your own lunch!

Are you wanting to get more active?

How about joining me in a walking/running challenge? The idea is that you challenge yourself to walk(or run) 150km's for the whole month. You track your distance using any walking/running apps on your phone/fitbit or use google maps to workout how far you walk each day. Keep a record and try to reach a total of 150km's by the end of the month.

If I get enough interest, I will start a facebook group for the month of Feb (and possibly future months if I get enough interest) and create a community of fellow ladies wanting to get their bodies moving and feel happier and healthier along the way. The group will be motivation and support throughout the month and you can share your progress as we go along.

Any fitness level is acceptable! We all have to start from somewhere and it is totally at your own pace.

If this sounds like something you would like to be a part of, pop your email below and if there are a few of us interested, I will start the facebook group.

I know that I am late in posting this, but real life had other plans, so as they say ... better late than never :)
To each and everyone one of you out there in Neighbourly land, I would like to take a moment to wish you all an incredible New Year filled with love and good health.
I would also like to send you as many blessings you may need to help you through those small moments when the sun isn't shinning so brightly and things seem so dark.
I recently came across a wonderful quote (I'm not sure who said it) which I would like to share with you all:
"Regardless of what each nightfall steals from our life, may dawn give us another day to weave new hopes and dreams"
Let this New Year be the one, where all your dreams come true.
Wishing you all an amazing New Year
