It makes a tasty soft and flexible wrap. The water can be replaced with vegetable juices for different colour and flavour. Spices such as cummin, or herbs such as parsley can be added to the mix for extra flavour as well. Once cooked, the wraps can be brushed with olive oil and sprinkled with salt then cut into wedges and baked in the oven until crisp for tasty chips. Alternatively, garlic butter can be used instead of oil and salt. I find that it is useful to keep a packet of the wrap mix in the pantry for when unexpected visitors arrive, so that I can produce quick and easy food that meets all dietary requirements.

Curriculum changes would reset a national framework so that all learners and ākonga were aware of key aspects of New Zealand history and how they had influenced and shaped the nation.
What do you think? Should New Zealand history be taught in all schools, or are there other, more important subjects to teach?

Hi neighbours - what'd you think of the All Blacks vs. South Africa game on Saturday night?
Some All Blacks supporters have expressed disgust that Springboks fans sang loudly during the All Blacks' first haka at the World Cup, even though this isn't uncommon. What are your thoughts?

We've hand picked five fabulous locations to showcase a variety of homes, reflecting local design flare and style. The tours are self-driven, and give attendees the opportunity to take in the best scenery the region has to offer, try some quirky cafes or eateries along the way, and also visit our Hub; a one stop shop for all your house tour information and where they can meet the editorial team behind their much-loved magazine.
Weleda Teething Powder is back in stock. This old favourite now has a new look. It has been sorely missed by many while the packaging was in the process of change!
