Boy do I love going home. Heading north, coming over the top of the Brynderwyn’s, and there it is. The Heads. Home. Plus my Mama Bear always puts on a good spread.
Homemade Mexican and Rhubarb charlotte where on the menu this time. My favourite. Lucky girl.
My ma and pa built it with their very own hands, They are pretty brilliant. But once us kids moved out, they re built and now rent this as a holiday home. Yes, that does mean you can stay here too. For a price.
Until next time.
Gosh it felt good to get out of the city. A much needed get-away that the husband ‘surprised’ me with. What a good man. We went a few hours south and out to the coast, to Whangamata. It such a sleepy town at this time of year, just the way we like it.
Due to a stormy weekend most of it was spent indoors. With Empire records on VHS, Super Mario Brothers board game and Rummikub. French toast and the longest shake in town. And finally, with a little clearing in the weather we took a drive to Thames. Had a taste of America from a german man, and a beach adventure. Pretty bloody good if you ask me. Thanks Whangamata, Thanks Husband, We will be back.
Until next time

Quince // is a small, deciduous tree that bears a pome fruit, similar in appearance to a pear, and bright golden-yellow when mature. The fruit is edible when cooked and there is a long history of this, but the tree is also grown for its attractive pale pink blossom and other ornamental qualities.
Until next time.
