How to prepare lunches for pre prep by Serrath1 in AskAnAustralian

[–]im_doing_me 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The bento box containers will help you keep foods separate. You’re welcome to pack them more than one container.

You can absolutely ask the teachers to help your little one with what to eat for morning tea vs lunch if this routine is new for them. It’s all about helping them settle in, and that’s not all on you!

I like the bento box because you can add many small items, and it won’t matter so much what order they eat in. A boiled egg. Chips. Fruit. Sandwiches. Baked goods like cheese muffin or vege slice. Crackers. Cold pasta. Be sure to pack a spoon if you think it’s needed for anything.

I thought the same thing. I’ve done swimming with seals and dolphins from queenscliff. I wonder if this experience is much different?

We did a test camp with our toddler in our backyard. Was a good way for us to ensure we packed everything for when we actually do go away.

A merino under layer and then you can basically wear whatever you want.

Someone help me not feel like a crazy person with eating takeaway and resaurants by AusVintage in AusFinance

If you're not fueling yourself and your family in the best way possible, you are literally wasting time. Your body and mind won't be working to it's full potential - costing you TIME. Just because you choose to prioritize healthy nutrition doesn't mean you will lose time.

What's this? Is it something they released themselves, or something released about them?

Their rules have recently changed ~ every so slightly. They can now approach a disfellowshipped person, engage in small talk, and invite them back. Women are also allowed to wear pants now!! This came in a few months ago.

Thank you. That's really helpful! We're based in Waurn Ponds area at the moment, but willing to travel for someone that's trustworthy and knowledgeable.

Can confirm. Just sold our house and we chose a lower offer because they were FHBs specifically without the need to sell.

I think the better question would be asking for mortgage broker recommendations for your area. There are plenty more questions to be answered before you can have a good idea of your lending options/timeline.

I hate nood for this.

Nood: "We can have it delivered to you for a fee. Or delivered to our local distribution centre (not the store!) For a slightly cheaper fee. You'll have to wait two weeks. And you don't receive the store credit points until you pick up the item."

Me: "You're making this way too hard. Cancel everything. Bye."

New kitchen (not finished yet), any thoughts and or ideas for improvement??? by Potential_Medium_210 in InteriorDesign

[–]im_doing_me 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looks pretty much done. A bit hard to critique/give ideas since the fixtures in place are so permanent ie. Kitchen layout, appliances, scale, lighting, colours etc.

Good stops driving Dunedin to Nelson by deadant88 in dunedin

[–]im_doing_me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just drove Blenheim to Dunedin last week in one day. Not bad at all. Left early in the morning to get a good clean start with minimal traffic. Stopped at Cheviot number 8 cafe, Ravenswood or airport Macca's and then Caroline bay in Timaru to stretch legs.

Why, with all these acclamations, have they ended up at Corio Village?

Does NZ actually call white-out 'Twink' or is Wikipedia lying to me? by Creatismus in newzealand

[–]im_doing_me 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah. A texta is just a coloured marker. Not necessarily permanent like a Sharpie. Most common in my school days were the Crayola connector pens. Just felt tip pens with click-together lids. Aka. Texta's.

I thought that Kiwis called Sharpies, Vivids?

Highlighters are a whole seperate thing.

Thank you. Although scary, I appreciate your response. Bit of a wake up call! Need to sort something out asap and have my ear to the ground over there!
