Photoshoots - Gumboot Friday - I AM HOPE

Tanja from Totara Vale

I AM HOPE is one of The MaGik in ME's companions and we walk beside them as they walk beside us and others. We support each companion individually as well as together.

The youth are the future and all of us need to make it a safe and happy place, a place where there is no judgment, no bullying, no harassment, no intimidation... a place where there is kindness, understanding, and support. For this to happen, we need to have people in place that can and are able help and support our youth in need. To do that, in this day and age, we need money to make this support and help available in the form of counselling.

Please, book a photoshoot with us and help us to help make difference to the youth needing help and support. In 2020 GUMBOOT FRIDAY did not happen due to lock-down from Covid-19. SO let's make this one bigger and better than ever. Let's show that we DO REALLY CARE!

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!

Home made bread problem

Karen from Totara Vale

Is anyone else having trouble with bread dough not rising properly?

I used to be able to turn out a decent loaf but now the bread is half the height - if that - and very dense.

I've used 4 different brands of yeast including the type bakers use to no avail. I've changed the flour to the best available and I've followed the recipe meticulously.

It can only be the flour?

What do you think?
