Good morning everyone. Happy Waitangi Day.
Overcast again but we end up with really hot afternoons.
I used to preserve heaps. There were good orchards in Rotorua and Galatea. Did all mine on the coal range.. We had a sleep out lined with shelves. Our neighbour asked why I did it when you can buy cans. I just looked at him and said Ill show you why. He admitted mine was much nicer. MrP always helped with peeling. We did most of our preserving together and he often spoke about doing it with his mum.
I DONT miss pickling onions lol..
Haven't been to Tairua in many years. I bet it has changed massively Kiwimade. One of my school friends and her hubby brought land in Pauanui when young. They profited well.
I need to get a few groceries this morning, and I Need to do some lawn. Ill make sure there is plenty to drink for after.
I Kitted up for my next picture. A clear glass vase of Tulips. Ive had it for a while. I think I will take a few into the home to show the ladies on Friday. Photos dont do them justice.
Have a wonderful day everyone
