One taken about 6 years ago when we lived in Mount Maunganui - so nice to see people laughing and having fun.
It's been a busy week here as Christmas is getting nearer. My work started playing seasonal songs about 3 weeks ago - way too early for my liking but it's incredible sometimes to see what people spend their money on - it's mind boggling to see how much debt they go into at this time of year....and sad. I read last night that one of my favourite pie companies (Maketu Pies) are going into liquidation. Kiwis LOVE their pies and I don't mean the sweet kind. We love savoury pies usually filled with such foods as mince and cheese, or steak and mushroom but my favourite is either mussel pie or seafood pie.
Linking up with Weekend Reflections and the Weekend Roundup.

Shock! Great sadness. Being brought up in The Puke we all loved Maketu pies and one of my brother's lives out there now. Apparently they were bailed out some years ago by the Arawa Trust but still couldn't make a go of it. Such a pity. Some of the best. So are Maketu fish and chips. I hope they're not going to fold. Bade news for the small settlement, that's 49 people unemployed
