HOMEMADE SOAP
Hi, I have started to make my own soap,after doing research into what ingredients go into the soap we buy off the supermarket shelf. My soap isnt perfect to look at, this is the first time I have ever tried to sell anything that I have made, but I Im very proud of it, it has cleansing and nourishing oils and fats, and lather well, and smell lovely, some with Essential Oils, some with Fragrance Oils. This soap has Cocoa, which has many skin benefits, also for a natural colour, Coconut and Olive oils, Ylang Ylang & Patchouli EO, size varies 80-100g.I found it hard to take good photos, the light showed up all the small imperfections.
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!
