Bags - Simple Pleasures #3

 


Simple pleasures for this week: 

  • I have the "Z App" for one of our local petrol stations named "Z". Because I use the app when I get petrol, I accumulate points and this week I was able to get a free mochaccino and it was pretty good.
  • That I have the option of buying a keto type bread as I am wheat intolerant with normal bread.
  • We've had rain on and off but nothing major so far unlike other parts of the country.
  • That the rest of the "Squid Game" series has come back to Netflix.

Linking up with Weekend Reflections and the Weekend Roundup.

Dentists are not my idea for weekend pleasures but bonus points are okay.

new world supermarkets do coffee rewards at their cafe's too - last two times I was there I had conversations with strangers (initiated by them). That seldom if ever happened in UK.

Happiness in a bag, good choice for "B". Here you get points, too, but thankfully I have no car no more.

Not having a car, I always seem to be carrying stuff, too...

We have a points card at a gas station. Since we bought a hybrid car, we don’t use much gas however, so the card doesn’t accumulate many points.

I would rather have cheap petrol than expensive petrol with points.

What do the bonus points get you? We are the opposite, we get grocery points that reduce our gasoline cost. An accumulated in incremeted100 points, one per 10 dollars spent, gets 10 cents off per gallon of gas. Our Kroger brand does that at the Kroger gas pumps.

Love it when petrol turns into perks—free coffee makes it even sweeter!

Auckland Metropolis Museum

In amongt the modern new highrise buildings in Auckland City is this smaller vintage building that is currently for sale (I'd buy it if I had the money).   My research found that:  "It was designed by English-born architect Charles Towle and erected in the early 1930s as the Church of Christ, Scientist, the building's Graeco-Roman facade has towering columns that frame its impressive entranceway, with three ornate timber doors decorated with leadlight inserts providing access to the expansive foyer. Arched ceilings dominate the former congregational high stud space beyond the foyer and numerous picturesque windows provide a light, airy feel and an ambience many office buildings lack. The building housed congregational and Sunday school services for 70 years until it was sold and converted into office space in 2003. A significant refurbishment was also carried out with care taken to ensure that the building's distinctive character remained intact. Special architectural ...

Family

  Photo taken Spring 2024 in Auckland We have been invited to a family reunion in June 2026 which will be held in Auckland so I'm looking forward to catching up with relatives that I haven't seen in over 10 years.  This week we have: Had a good chat with a friend who has also adopted a rescue dog - must arrange a play date. I've bought some non alcoholic liqueurs to mix up for mocktails which have been very nice as I don't really drink. We had a massive wind storm 2 days ago, we were ok but a good friend who lives 20 minutes away had a bolt of lightning strike her house, the result was a blown up power box inside and part of her kitchen got burned, she had to call out the fire brigade to put it out. And I have a question for you; when you add your blog post to a blog meme or a blog link up, do you expect the owner of that blog to at least come back and comment on the other blogs that have linked up to it including yours even if it's only occasionally?  I actually th...

Hail

  Spring is throwing out some strange weather right now. We don't get snow where we live but it is visible on some of the mountains around us over Winter. Last week around 4.30am we had a very loud thunderstorm with hail. It wasn't until an hour or so later my daughter said this is what she saw out on our deck.  Clumps of hail all over the deck and on her hand. Apparently various other suburbs around town got it too.
