Sweet couple and...

Rainy Day

Snapped at car park today when we went out for a vegetable store.
Keep eye/ear on the information like this site; http://www.nelsontasmancivildefence.co.nz .

Last Light

No trick, 5 minutes ago!

KIWI DIP

According to many source this is the traditional KIWI DIP recipe.
1 can of nestle reduced cream + 1 packet of Magge onion soup mix + 1tsp vinegar (or lemon juice).

Honestly? I like mine but it will cost little more.

Whipped cream cheese block (or spreadable one)
+ chopped cold smoked salmon bits (almost to be minced)
+ lemon juice
+ Very finely chopped shallot 
+ pinch of dill
+ bit of salt & pepper for your taste

Happy Holidays

This is a Pohutukawa aka New Zealand Christmas Tree. Happy holidays!

Today, it was mostly fine. Little (gentle) rain in evening but not too serious. Thanks for those people working hard to clean up the mess around town!

And road closure and slip wherever

Those are just small example and nothing compare to other places.

Rain, rain, rain....

This is Mitai river just about 30min ago.  Yes we have very heavy rain right now.  there is few land slips at rocks road as well.

Red

This is a miniature size Japanese maple tree.  Its hight is about 50cm (we keep it small) and each leave is about (+ -) 4cm.  I remember, it s usually start with lime green but as you see, it's quite eye catching red.   

Rain makes a colour looks more vivid.

It's a very nice art (sign) display!  This is taken couple of weeks ago.

And Wondering

My tiny lettuce patch was cleaned and tidied last week.  The empty spaces now have red lettuce, marigolds, soy, and one more kind of seeds I can't remember.  I'm not sure, though, how many of the them remain in tact after the torrential rain on the weekend.  Fingers, toes and eyes crossed!
