Matariki

 A short explanation of Matariki taken from the internet.

 Matariki, also known as the Māori New Year, is a time of celebration, remembrance, and looking forward, marked by the rising of the Matariki star cluster (Pleiades) in the winter sky. It's a time for communities to gather, share stories, reflect on the past, celebrate the present, and plan for the future.

Hot out of the oven

Cold weather lunch.

 Hot toasted crumpets and a cup of whatever hot drink you fancy.

Pasta meal

 I cooked the meal for Friday Light this week. So much easier now that they are happy with a one pot meal instead of the meat and veges we used to cook.

What is through the arch?

 We never did go through so I can't tell you but I like the words.

Eureka!

 Someone hit paydirt panning in Lawrence.

Good advice
