Colourful decorating outside the town library – with an excellent message

Lilliput Library
This has popped up in town (or have I just noticed it?). A communal library, where you take a book, enjoy it, then return it or pass it on. Love the idea!
Reo first
The sign outside a new(ish) cafe in Ōtaki. Sometimes that’s all it takes (and great coffee). Kia ora, Gorge cafe.

Rā Kiritata
I spotted this brochure at the local library – promoting Neighbours’ day in te reo. Mīharo.
Reo magnets
Spotted these in our local doctor’s surgery, which the boys immediately gravitated to. Sometimes the smallest things can make you feel validated as Māori.

Limequat
This is a limequat (no, really, that’s what it’s called). It’s a lime version of a kumquat, and apparently is awesome in marmalade. This is the first year it has produced fruit after about 5 years in our garden. Exciting.
Storing spuds
Storing some of our precious taewa Māori for next season’s planting.
