Family, electronics, photography, fishing, renovations, distilling, brewing and a happy old kiwi grandad.
Relative to income a block of butter costing $8.60 on minimum wage is equal to the Frontera CEO paying $1055 a block.
The prime minister would pay $91 and our two right-wing knowalls, Peters/Seymour pay $60.

Frying up fritters tonight: Corn, silverbeet and parsley with parmersan egg and 50/50 corn flour and regular flour.
Simple, nourishing, economic and OMG rather tasty.

I let Tess choose the walk tonight. First she went on a smell tour of trees and posts checking her social media for likes (she's coming on heat). The she took me to the lake (I'm like noooooo). but she didn't jump in just selected a log and took me to the field to chuck for her. Joy #retriever #pets
