Vege planter prepped for summer: 10 pea seedlings, 4 heritage tomato seedlings, corn and beetroot sown in front. Space for up to 6 pumpkins to trail over the front when germinated, and melons are sown directly into compost around to the side out of shot 🌱 #gardening #gardensky

Had vanilla mascapone icing left after the school bake-sale, so I made the chocolate cake from @mbrobergmoffitt.bsky.socialmbrobergmoffitt.bsky.social Color Taste Texture to help use it up! Some neighbours came to help us with eating it and loved it too.

Irritation Against the Machine

Are there better songs for creating a mood of vaguely meloncholic unease on an overcast winter's day than White Valiant or Too Close To The Sun?

Aurora australis in Napier/Ahuriri! We took the munchkin out to see, I hope he remembers.
