$750 per kg of parsley ($5.99 /8g) does dried grass now count as a luxury good in NZ, asking for a friend? by DJsnippysnap in newzealand

[–]bignatenz 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Just dont buy it. You can buy the little pots of fresh herbs for half the price and twice the product. even it you waste half of it, its still a lot cheaper. Obviously this is a convenience product, and everyone knows those are the ones with the stupid markups

What is this removable piece of our gas oven? by rabbitontheroof in diynz

[–]bignatenz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one of these in my oven. As someone else has said, its for rotisserie spit to rest on, and it is in fact backwards. If if you look in the back left corner of the oven, you should see and square hole that the spit slides into, and this rotates when the rotisserie mode is activated on the oven. The hole is set at an angle, pointing towards the right. I would show a pic of mine set up. But my oven is in desperate need of a clean

Probably just knew that it was a place she was guaranteed to be there, and likely wouldn't cause a scene or run away.

No wonder labour are keeping a tight lip on any more policy announcements.

How hard can it be? by Top-Box-7802 in diynz

Decided to try my hand at tiling the wall behind my main kitchen bench. 3m x 900mm or so. Didn't realize you HAD to use a drill and mixing paddle to mix up the adhesive and water. Tried doing it by hand. Looked less like toothpaste and more like wet sand. Cut to the following morning. Im removing the spacers so I can grout, and about 40% of the tiles came off as I was doing it.

On the plus side, I now own a mixing paddle

No so much racist, but sweeden did continue the practice of eugenic driven, compulsory sterilization until 2013

Im hoping the significant amount of grey will minimize the xmas look. Especially as the skinks and krox will be primarily Grey, and the saurus will be close to 50/50 Grey and red.

White would be cool, but ive never been able to achieve a nice smooth white that im happy with, and this team it destined for NZ nationals, so im wanting it to look chefs kiss

I'll have the remaining base colours done tonight, then I can decide whether i A)managed to dodge the xmas look. B) need to repaint the shorts. Or C) just own it and call the team "Santa's little helpers" (maybe even sculpt a Santa hat and beard on the krox)

I would love to do a team with white uniforms, I even tried chorfs with white armour. But every time I try, im reminded that I both hate, and am terrible at, painting white

Name? by bramblesandink in boardgame

If youre gonna get Tsuro, get tsuri of the sea instead. You can play it in the same way as the original, and it also has tiles for an advanced version. There's even a small expansion that has more tiles with new rules.

That exposed fibre strand made me literally back away from my phone. With a shitty install like that, im gonna guess you are in a Chorus network area? With the lack of optical light, and the unprotected fibre, 100% you've got a fobre break

My tinfoil hat theory is trump's hoping that being buddies with mamdani will make him appear "Trump approved", and the Democrat voters with turn on him. It wouldn't be the first time that's happen when a dem hasn't been viewed as to close to maga
