We Dream of Roma

Every summer a local grower/veg shop allows us to pick our own tomatoes, and other veg; this year we were allowed into the tom patch after Waitangi Day but we didn't get there until yesterday. We picked about 25kg of Roma for slow roasting, but may have to go back, as last year a friend taught us about cauliflower pizza base and 16kg didn't last us a month as we had night after night of vegetarian pizza.

Again, it was colorful and spectacular sunset.

Sunset on last night, quite spectacular show again.

According to weather news, there is small effect of Australia bush fire smoke across Tasman. This time it largely covered north island and top of sooth where I'm at. 

It wasn't obvious to me like last time ..





About minuets later see the effect of smoke on top half side little more, where it usually get little more blue shade on when sun goes down. 

Happy New Year and Kia Kaha to OZ friends.
