Donating proceeds to South Island Flooding
I received a newsletter from the fund site Give a Little about the S I flooding and thought i would sell my Organic Soaps and donate 90% of the proceeds for the South Island flooding. The 10% i keep is for the ingriedients to make my soaps.At least when you buy 1 of my soaps you are getting something for your donation. If you want to come and have a look or bring some friends just email me at andrea.taylor@xtra.co.nz
Below are just a small sample of my soaps,i also make lip gloss,bath bombs and body moisturizers. Baby Soaps come with a wee flannel and all are gift wrapped.
I am happy to post if you cant come around just let me know what you would like.
I will copy and paste the proceeds from my bank account at the end of the month to show how much you all contributed,thanks so much. I live in Mission Bay.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
