What's one highway or road that needs attention?
We've all been on a summer roadie and experienced first-hand the state of our roads.
If you've ever been stuck in a summer traffic jam, had near-misses on dangerous turns or feared for your life on clifftops (while the car behind you is tail-gating!) - you may have an opinion on this one.
Tell us what main road or highway you think needs some serious attention across the country, and why!
What historical moment lives on in your memory?
Everyone has at least one world event they’ll never forget. Whether it’s something recent like the pandemic or the passing of the Pope, or something from the past like 9/11 or a World War.
If you're comfortable sharing, let us know where you were when the news broke, and what do you remember most about that moment?

The PICKERS
✨ Feijoa Fun in the Kitchen! ✨
I'm always experimenting with new ways to repurpose the fresh produce that is generously gifted to us, and this week it was all about feijoas!
After washing and top and tailing them, I cut them in half — skins and all—and popped them into a pot with a splash of water and a little sugar. Once they were stewed soft, I mashed them gently with a potato masher.
Then came the fun part: I grabbed my Edmonds Cook Book and used the banana loaf recipe, swapping the banana for the same amount of feijoa pulp.
The result? Absolutely delicious. Moist, flavourful, and that uniquely gritty feijoa texture we all secretly love! 😋
Give it a go — you might just find a new favourite!
