IN ACTION: Hillmorton High School put on its production, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, last week. Rykah Haddaway played Pyramus, Levi Fridd was The Wall, Daniel Blue played Quince and Dion Thornton was Thisbe. The production, which was on Monday and Tuesday nights, followed on from a successful entry in the Sheilah Winn Shakespeare competition last year where a number of the students were involved and performed an extract from the play in the finals in Wellington. Deputy principal Eleanor Sim said many in the audience enjoyed the age-old humour of the Shakespearean comedy.• More photos, page 7

Graffiti covering a heritage monu-ment in Woolston could soon be removed.
The Woolston Borough Monu-ment, which sits on the corner of Ferry Rd and Richardson Tce, has been a target for taggers in the last couple of years.
It is a heritage item and because it is made of Oamaru stone, the graffiti is difficult to get off without damaging the stone.
The city council is trialling ways to get rid of the graffiti without deteriorating the stone.
Hagley-Ferrymead Community Board chairwoman Sara Temple-ton said any work to a heritage item needed to get consent, and it was going through that process now.
She said the city council was tri-alling two options before attempt-ing them on the monument.
One was poultice application, which involves applying a paste to the graffiti and covering it with a plastic sheet to delay evaporation and pull the stain out of the stone.
The other was through me-chanical means, such as dry or wet blasting.
The city council would put a sign up to let people know what was happening, she said.
The monument was put on the site to commemorate Woolston be-coming a borough on July 27, 1893.
Ms Templeton said in the past graffiti had been left to fade with sunlight, but the previous tags had encouraged more, and now they would not fade.
She said it had got worse in the last six months.
When the graffiti was removed the city council planned to put a barrier around the monument to stop further damage, she said.

Earthquake repairs to the Malcolm Ave bridge will begin today.
Work on the bridge in St Martins will take about two weeks, subject to weather and on-site conditions.
The bridge suffered earthquake damage and needs to have cracks and damaged con-crete underneath it repaired.
Two-way traffic will be maintained throughout the works, but Downer workers
will need to return at a later date to re-seal the road, which will mean it will need to be closed to traffic.
A date for its re-sealing has not been con-firmed yet, but those in the area will be noti-fied closer to the time.
There will be no parking around the work site, on Waimea Tce and Hunter Tce during the works.
IN THOUGHT: Cashmere Primary School pupils Chris Watson (left), Joel Prince, Lewis Parker and Amos Doogue competed at the South Island Chess Competition held recently in Ashburton. The team came third. The pupils worked hard for their points against some tough competitors and enjoyed the day.

This is a great story of one very gutsy, tough, utterly loveable German Shepherd pup called “ Jerry Lee”. At just 17 months of age we have seen Jerry Lee over 30 times since his first visit for pup vaccinations. Luckily for us he’s a big softy and has never put up a fight to all our palpating and needle pricking. Occasionally to get us back he rips out the IV catheter in his leg and looks quite pleased with himself.
Jerry Lee first presented with weight loss and inappetance over a year ago as a pup. He just was never fussed on eating – no food really tickled his fancy and he was offered the best premium foods on the market and lots of variety. He wasn’t growing as he should have for his age and he often seemed really lethargic and lacking in energy. He had diarrhea and vomiting intermittently, salivating often, but what really concerned his owners was that as a pup he just didn’t have the energy he should of had. He has been blood tested many times, xrays have been taken of his gut and Catherine has performed ultrasounds. There isn’t many tests Jerry lee hasn’t had. No abnormalities were really detected but we all knew he wasn’t right. Many times we treated Jerry Lee with lower fat intestinal moist food, occasional antibiotics, drugs to help with nausea and vomiting, pain medications and we kept his worming up to date. He’d come right initially but before long we’d see him back just flat and listless and basically anorexic. He was a real worry to his owners and to us.
In his wee short life he’s had three anaesthetics and come through them brilliantly. Jerry Lee never complains and honestly is the perfect patient to treat. He’s been under the knife to be neutered, he then had an emergency dash to the afterhours clinic as he suddenly developed a twisted stomach and spleen. Then most
recently I performed exploratory surgery to inspect his stomach, small and large intestines all his abdominal organs, biopsying in particular many sections of stomach, bowel, pancreas and liver. This is where finally we
got a diagnosis of Inflammatory Bowell Disease – aptly called Eosinophilic, Lymphoplasmacytic, diffuse IBD!!!
He’s a true battler and at least we have a diagnosis now. Treatment is complicated, lengthy, costly and it really places an emotional strain on everyone in the family as its very hard seeing your loved pet (and a baby at that), go through at times pain and discomfort. To be hit with IBD as a young pup is very unlucky but Jerry Lee is so totally loved and adored by his family who would do anything for him. It would be fair to say his vet bills have been large and thanks to PetPlan Insurance, a massive financial burden has been lifted from Jerry Lee’s family. PetPlan are covering the vast majority of all his care and we are all praying we can get this nasty disease under control so Jerry Lee can finally enjoy life to the fullest!!
Pet Insurance for your new pup or kitten is something worthy of a discussion. Most pet insurance companies will offer 4-6 weeks free cover initially for your new pup or kitten, which gives you time to look at all the insurance options. We don’t sell pet insurance but we give you information on all the pet insurance companies out there for you to investigate the best option for you. Some cover pre-existing conditions which is a bonus. It makes life simplier for us as your pets veterinarian as we are able to do the very best in care, diagnostics and treatment for your pet with the financial worry removed.
For more information on Pet Insurance or Inflammatory Bowel disease be sure to give the clinic a call.

New deputy principalSt Mark’s School, Opawa, has appointed Adrian Rennie as its new deputy principal. The appointment comes seven months after former principal Paul Mathews and deputy Keith Moorfield resigned and Christine Nijdam was appointed commissioner, with Trevor Beaton as acting principal. Mr Rennie will take up his role at the start of term four.
Road closuresThe intersection of Woodbridge Rd and Colombo St, Cashmere, will be closed to traffic from today for McConnell Dowell workers to repair the stormwater network. The work is expected to take about a month to do. There may be temporary parking restrictions and reductions in lane widths during the works. Part of Simeon St, Spreydon, remains closed until Friday while workers repair the earthquake-damaged road. The closure is between Coronation St and Sydney Pl. Detours are in place and there is no parking around the work site. Smith St, Woolston, between Bray St and Ferry Rd will also be closed until October, traffic can use Mackworth St instead.
Tree submissionsThe public has until today to have its say on the planting of new trees in Somerfield Park and Sydenham Cemetery. The city council wants to know what sort of trees the community wants to be planted. Submissions can be made on the city council website and will close today.

City councillors have thrown their support behind a plea to stop the closure of Woolston’s only two banks.
Hagley-Ferrymead Com-munity Board chairwoman Sara Templeton spoke before the councillors last week asking them to take a stance of the plans.
New Zealand Post announced in July it would close the Woolston PostShop and Kiwibank, and expand in Ferrymead instead.
Postal services will be run from another business, but Kiwibank will be removed.
ANZ followed suit, leav-ing residents and businesses outraged they will be left with no banking services within walking distance.
The community board has already written to the chief executives of the New Zealand Post Group and the minister of state owned enterprises oppos-ing the closures.
The city council will now do
the same, as well as the chief executive of ANZ.
City councillor Yani Johan-son said it was important for the city council to play a role.
“The proposal is to take away a facility where people can walk to, to put it into Fer-rymead which is an area where nearly everyone has to drive to.”
City councillor Andrew Turner said a post office was not just a place where you go and buy stamps, it was often the heart of a community.
“This is about communities’ ability to do things within the community, and to be sustain-able as a community.”
City councillor Paul Lonsdale urged the councillors to vote to write to both banks.
“To plead to them that they are dealing with a post-earth-quake environment, we need to see that investment back in those smaller communities to ensure that we actually get the rebuild that we want to see for the future.”
The vote was unanimous.

A Heathcote Valley man is on a mission to beautify and im-prove bus stops in the area.
Flip Leijten was inspired to take on the challenge following the February 2011 earthquake when the community held a meeting to discuss ways to help residents recover.
The semi-retired fabrica-tion and welding tutor raised the idea to help improve both the look of stops, but also the conditions bus users face when waiting.
“I have the real desire to im-prove bus stops so people who wait are sheltered from winds and rain, can sit. I believe this will result in more people using the Christchurch public trans-port system.”
Following the meeting, a community working bee was set up, and all the stops in the area were surveyed.
There were 25 stops, three were sheltered, nine had seats and the remainder were just stops on a grassy spot or con-crete.
Mr Leijten often saw people waiting for the bus fully ex-posed to rain and wind.
“You can’t help feeling sorry
for those out there while you drive by in your car, in particu-lar students going to school or elderly. It’s not a good look in winter.”
Residents then showed city council staff the results of the survey, and asked to decorate some of the stops, and worked to have a shelter installed on Martindales Rd.
A survey was then carried out with residents who owned the fences next to each bus stop.
The first mural, on the corner of Bridle Path and Marsden
Rds has been completed.It has been painted onto a
piece of eco-plywood and fixed to the fence.
“This mural is to create awareness about the worldwide decline of bees who pollinate about one third of our food.”
Mr Leijten said he hoped to do more murals, not only in Heathcote Valley, but in other suburbs as well.
So where does he get his inspiration from?
“I am inspired by my creative impulse, I am an optimist, I love life . . . I have bees and
chickens and half an acre of garden.”
Practical, creative bus stops aim of artist

The Ferrymead Bridge traffic sig-nals will not be switched on until later this month due to “technical difficulties”.
The traffic signals were meant to be live by the end of August but the city council has revised the date to September 14.
The intersection, which the city council says will have about 1600 vehicles pass through daily, has traffic signals installed on Main Rd, Bridle Path Rd with a give way signal at the bottom of St Andrews Hill Rd.
City council Ferrymead Bridge
Replacement Project chairman John Mackie said there had been unexpected technical difficulties linking the new signals to the city-wide system.
“The safety of road users is our prime focus, so this work is essen-tial,” he said.
Hagley-Ferrymead Community Board chairwoman Sara Temple-ton said she had not been told about the delay.
She said it was “frustrating”, but people in Christchurch were very patient when it came to delays.

An $85 million project at Lyttelton Port of Christchurch is almost at its finish line.
The last of 22 concrete pours were finished recently at Cashin Quay 2 wharf, meaning the mas-sive $85 million project is almost at its end.
The entire wharf is reported to be around 230m long, including a large storage area for containers, called the wharf ’s ‘backland’.
The backland is a storage space which will allow for up to 700 containers, and will increase the
port’s productivity and efficiency.The finish line is also in sight
for the LPC’s newest project, a
27ha storage space in Rolleston, called MidlandPort.
The new space shows that LPC aims to ease the congestion of heavy trucks going through Christchurch, through its rail link from MidlandPort to Lyttelton Port, by early next year.
MidlandPort will be put in service to help the increasing productivity from the Canterbury Plains and will help reduce con-gestion on roading networks.
It provides a direct link to the 14 shipping lines and nine shipping services that call at the port.

CLOSER: The rebuild of earthquake-damaged Cashin Quay 2 wharf is nearing completion. BY BRIDGET RUTHERFORD
Plans to repair and rebuild com-munity facilities in St Martins are on track.
Concept plans for the St Mar-tins Community Facility, which is to be built on the corner of Wades Ave and Wilsons Rd, are to be pre-sented to the Spreydon-Heathcote Community Board on Friday.
The former St Martins Public Li-brary on the same site was demol-ished after the earthquakes.
A geotechnical investigation has found the soils on the site are poor grade, similar to TC3.
This could mean the foundation costs increase, and may impact the scale of the building.
City council community facili-ties unit manager Darren Moses said this would mean specific geo-technical input is required to pro-duce a foundation design.
But he said the design would be
completed before Christmas and there would be no delays.
The current budget for the entire project is $1.1m, and is expected to be completed by mid 2016, he said.
Meanwhile, the St Martins Opa-wa Toy Library, on Sandwich Rd in Beckenham, is currently going through the consenting stage for its repairs.
The city council had hoped the repairs would be completed by the end of the year, but acknowledged it was ambitious.
Mr Moses said consent is expect-ed to be granted next month, but the targeted opening date would be confirmed once that had been done.
“The budget for the strengthen-ing is $400,000.”
The building was given a second lease of life after a decision to de-molish it in 2013 was revoked by the city council because of its heri-tage looking exterior.
PROGRESS: Consent for the St Martins Opawa Toy Library building, formerly the Beckenham Library, is expected to be granted next month.

PIT STOP: Zoe Howman, Mel Cook, Amber Skye Jewell, Joseph Davidson-Labout, Enzo Murray and Kaito Ito take a break on their visit to Arthurs Pass.
EXPERIENCE: A group of 38 year 6 pupils from Ōpāwa School went on the TranzAlpine train to Arthurs Pass recently. The group stayed at the Outdoor Education Centre for two nights and enjoyed walking and working as a team and a range of other activities. The highlights of the trip were the spectacular views, especially from the top of Bealey Spur, the sensory trail, which involved feeling your way through a trail while blind folded, and the observation platform on the train – even though it was chilly.

COMMUNITY ART: St Anne’s Catholic School pupils Kristyl, Samantha, Taurean and Jamal are helping to transform the former Woolston Library site by designing and decorating a large pot to go on the site. The pot will be placed at the entrance of the Ferry Rd site. The Woolston Library building was badly damaged in the earthquakes and demolished shortly after the February 2011 earthquake. Workshops were held and the community decided to turn the site into a transitional library and green space, which is being created now.

BY MARK THOMAS – FIRE RISK MANAGEMENTFrosts, snow on the Port Hills, cold southerlies all belie the fact that we are in spring.
In fact, on the 27th daylight sav-ing will start again.
That’s just a fortnight away so right now is a good time to check out the specials on batteries at local supermarkets, in preparation to giving your smoke alarms a treat on the day and replacing the bat-teries.
I’m sure there will be some
advertising from us about this but this is an eyes up that it is not far away.
Saturday night saw some easy chairs set on fire at the Sign of the Bellbird on the Port Hills. The fire spread into the roof of this structure and Governors Bay fire crew spent ages trying to dismantle the roof, which was an ancient and intricate design, to put the fire out.
More mindless vandalism casu-ally destroying something that has been with us for 100 years. Those responsible sure make it easy to
dislike them.A householder in Rasen Place,
Linwood, did the right thing when a fire started in her oven on Satur-day afternoon.
She called us and didn’t panic. People tend to open the door of the oven but our lady was rewarded for actually doing nothing as she could see the fire diminishing through the glass until it was out when our crew arrived. That’s a good result.
If she’d opened it? At the very least the fire crew
would have had work to do.

GRACEFUL: Florence Pearce (left) performs her rhythmic gymnastics routine as part of Cashmere Primary School’s arts celebration last week. Pupils have been working on mu-sic, dance and visual art throughout the term, ending with various presentations and exhibitions throughout last week. On Wednesday night the year 7 and 8 team presented To-tara’s Got Talent, with 13 acts, as well as class items. It was a great night of dance, singing, music and even some drama.

▌▌READER’S LETTERLast week the Southern View asked readers if there has been enough information provided for those living on potentially contaminated land in the Spreydon-Heath-cote ward.
Gary Knight, Hoon Hay: The pro-posed advisory group amalgama-tion between Spreydon-Heathcote Community Board and Environ-ment Canterbury to help property owners with possible contami-nated land, while commendable, is devoid of essential data for these residents.
Definition of contaminated land under section 2 of the Resource Management Act, covering hazard-ous substances not used, stored or disposed of safely, identifies the following areas: Extreme pesti-cide use inclusive of agrichemical
sources, gas and coal production synonymous with old gasworks, petroleum products, historic min-ing, timber treatment and sheep dips.
All having at some stage leeched into soil or dispersal into the atmo-sphere, are relevant factors of vital importance for those deemed to have contaminated soil.
This additional data would allow them to ascertain and reappraise their land status with relativity to the above.
These factors have not been forthcoming for many.
Apart from the detrimental effect from exposure to any of these, factors of concern would be corrosion, demeaning to build-ing structures, and reduction in land value through parochial and bureaucratic viewpoints by many now resultant in a $5000 fee for closure on the degree of their prop-erty contamination.
Xavier Siemonek-Wilson, Blake Higgins, Johnny Herles and Lewis van der Krabben all started at Spreydon School recently.

Opportunities for AllCultural Arts Sports
Music is taught as part of the performing arts curriculum in all classrooms but extra opportunities exist for students to learn music and to participate in our choir, orchestra, rock band and other music groups.
We are also able to arrange music instrument tutors so our students are able to learn a variety of instruments if they are interested.
We currently have students learning: cello; violin; piano; ukulele; guitar; flute; saxophone; clarinet and drums.
Those students who learn are then invited to join and perform in our orchestra, string ensemble and rock band.
We have several other opportunities for children who are interested in the performing
arts such as Jump Jam, Aerobics, Showcase, The Community Concert as well as our Production (held every second year). This production offers a large singing, dancing and acting performance which is the culmination of over a term’s work.

Parenting can be difficult when you’re together, let alone when you are separated. Parents or guardians may disagree on things such as

But there’s a lot you can do to make things easier, for both you and your children. Parenting Through Separation is a free programme now being offered by Family Works in various locations in North Canterbury, Selwyn and Christchurch, depending on demand.
By taking part, you’ll get practical advice about separation and planning for your

Her incredible results really do speak for themselves because Dr Lan Xiao’s patients are happy to tell anyone and everyone just
how amazing and how quickly the results of their treatment with her have been.
One patient, who suffered from chronic pain and depression for 4 years and tried both conventional and alternative medicine, says that she felt great after just one session. She’s keen to spread the word, saying that “it feels like a pressure has been lifted from her whole body.” Another who suffered from chronic fatigue syndrome for many years used to struggle to find the energy to do her work. Dr. Lan gradually gave her her energy back. “It pulled me back from the brink … and I will be grateful forever,” she says.
Dr. Lan’s website is full of similar success stories, covering a wide range of ailments including everything from dyslexia to
Results that Speak for themselves
addictions and arthritis to stroke recovery. But just how does it work?
Acupuncture Without Needles stimulates particular points on the body, giving an instant release of energy and helps the body to heal itself. The treatment is not invasive or painful, and, as Dr. Lan explains, “the results are very quick and effective.”
Her ideas are revolutionary and are captured in her book “Dr. Lan’s Reflexology Network.” In it, she explains that unlike many other practitioners, she has found that there are reflexology points across the entire body and not just in certain areas, and she believes that her successes are based on her wider understanding.

As Spring comes along, many of us feel compelled to spring into action….dig the garden, clean up the house - inside and out, climb
ladders to clean out guttering, tidy back-yards, trim hedges etc.
This sudden burst of physical activity, after a winter spent in semi-hibernation, can often cause pain and discomfort in different parts of the body, stopping us in our tracks.
However, help is at hand from the osteopaths at Osteopaths on Ensors & Wairakei, where our UK trained professionals can bring relief, usually in just a few sessions. “There’s a misconception that osteopathy is only about bones and backs”, says osteopath Christina Creek, “but it can help with shoulder, hip, ankle problems and indeed any other musculoskeletal pain or indeed visceral pain, ie other internal problem.”
“We don’t just treat the problem area,” Christina continues, “we look for the cause of the problem and treat that first.”
Christina trained in the UK at the European School of Osteopathy, graduating in 1993, then went on to study paediatric
osteopathy in Melbourne, graduating in 1999. Living in NZ since 1993, she launched the Ensors Clinic in 1995 and the Wairakei Clinic in 2004 & both have been busy ever since.
“People with sporting injuries, people suffering from migraines or difficulty sleeping, are all able to be given some relief ”, says Christina, “with our gentle hands-on osteopathic techniques.”
All osteopaths have undergone comprehensive 4-5 year training and are registered with the NZ Osteopathic Registration Council and ACC.
So this Spring, if something ‘Oooooh---Aaaargh!’ happens to your body, pop in to Osteopaths on Ensors or Osteopaths On Wairakei and we will help put the spring back in your step!!!
Osteopaths spring to the rescue

can’t find a reason for the recurring pain.Teeth grinding at night and teeth
clenching during the day are also a major cause of muscle tightening.
Physiotherapy treatment for these problems is based on deactivating the ‘trigger points’ through hands-on massage therapy to relax the muscles, which is the least invasive and a very effective form of treatment. Dry needling is another technique used for muscle relaxation, but is only used with the client’s consent,
Physical Sense Gym and Physio is located at 300 Colombo Street, Sydenham. To enquire about specialised exercise classes or physiotherapy treatment, phone 377 2577 or visit www.triggerpoints.co.nz.
Ietje says.“We release the muscles to give
immediate relief, and at the same time work on the cause. For example, we have a feedback headband that is worn at night to help people to learn not to clench their teeth while they’re asleep. We also work on the client’s cervical or neck part of the spine, where overuse can cause muscles to tighten, creating pain.”
Teaching self-management of stress is an important aspect of the clinic’s treatment as well as teaching breathing techniques, which go hand in hand with managing stress.
As physiotherapist Ietje van Stolk explains, when our muscles tighten this can refer pain to many of these areas around the
face and head. Dehydration can be the catalyst for tightening the neck muscle (SCM), which causes pain in the ear, forehead and round the eye and jaw joint areas. Tightening of the temporalis muscle can refer pain to the teeth, which can be confusing when the person visits the dentist to have it seen to and the dentist

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER CHEESE — Serves 6I made this dairy-free cheese sauce with diluted coconut milk.
1 medium head cauliflower 2 tbsp olive oil freshly ground black pepper Cheese Sauce: ½ cup Angel Food Cheesey Sauce Mix; 2½ cups rice, soy or coconut milk Topping: 2 tbsp capers, rinsed and drained; 1 tbsp oregano leaves
Preheat the oven to 220 deg C. Trim the cauli of its major leaves. Cut the base so the cauli sits flat. Place in a large microwave-proof bowl with 2 tablespoons of water. Cover and microwave on high for 2 minutes. Remove and place in a small baking dish. Drizzle
with the olive oil. Sprinkle with black pepper. Bake for about 50 minutes or until tender.
Meanwhile, prepare the sauce. Place the dry cheese sauce mix-ture in a microwave-proof bowl. Gradually, whisk in the dairy-free milk, until smooth. Cook in the microwave for about 3 minutes, until thickened. Stir every minute. To serve, drizzle a little of the sauce in lines over the cauli letting it form a pool in the baking dish. Garnish with capers and oregano leaves.

When I’m scanning theenormous smorgasbord of winechoices on the shop shelf, if theprice is right and I have no otherinformation— then forme it’s allabout looks. I want that bottle tolook great on the dinner table; Iwant it to become a talkingpoint. Thankfully, these winestaste as good as they look.
Mojo Barossa ValleyShiraz 2013, $24★★★★The label says thestorybookish, fantasyforest creaturesartworkwas done byGhostpatrolwhile“listening to K.Frimpong and hisCubano Fiestas”.Delicious aromas of dustyspices, leather and cocoa lead tosweet plum and berry-soakedgoodness in themouth. Thefinish is edgedwith vanilla andpepper. blackmarket.co.nz
Zeppelin “Big Bertha” BarossaShiraz 2014, $24★★★★Saturatedmagentacolour and oozing withsweet cherry and berryaromas, gentle spicesand a palate soakedwith fruit, vanilla,pepper and hints ofdark chocolate. This isa cracker of a winethat’s smooth, velvetyand dangerously easyto drink. For stockists, contactRed &White Cellar 09 376 0760.
Two Hands Gnarly DudesBarossa Shiraz 2013, $38★★★★ 1/2There’s somethingoddly comfortingabout drinking a winefrom a bottle that hasa picture on the labelof a grapevine so oldand gnarly it lookslike Treebeard theEnt, from Lord of theRings.

Stir-fry a fewminutesmore, then add 1 tsp saltand 2 cups chicken stock.Cover and cook 20minutesor until vegetables aretender, stir in 1 cupmilk andblend until smooth. Addmore salt if necessary plusfreshly ground black pepperand 1 tbsp chopped freshherbs, such as parsley,chives and thyme. Reheatgently, sprinklingindividual serves withgrated cheddar.
WHY DO SO MANY DISHES CALLFOR AN ONION COOKED INBUTTER BEFORE THE MAINCOOKING?
For flavour. Some recipessuggest cooking untiltender but not brown,others go on until the
onions are golden orcaramelised. Either way it’sworth it if you enjoy tastyfood. You can cut theamount of fat used bycovering the pot while youronion cooks— the lidcollects moisture thatwould normally evaporate,and by returning this to theonion, it avoids burning.

‘‘Whenharvested, theywere keptexclusively forthe Inca kings.
WHOwould havethought that thehumble spudwasonce regarded asboth a food and a
fashion accessory fit for royalty?Native to South America,
potatoes were first cultivated bythe Incas about 200BC. The jewelin the crownwas the Peruvianpurple potato— royally purpleinside and out.When harvested,theywere kept exclusively forthe Inca kings.And in 18th-century France,
Marie Antoinette made aWorldofWearable Art-type fashionstatement by parading aroundthe countryside wearing potatoblossoms on her expensivedresses.Whenmost of us think of
packet ‘‘chips’’ we tend to thinkof fatty, salty occasional treats.But I was recently pleasantly
surprised to discover amoreishrange of proper chips— 100 percent natural, gluten-free, GMO-free and hand-cooked in high-oleic sunflower oil. Ned andMina Smith, the expatriateAmerican couple who run thefamily-style Proper Crispsoperation in Nelson, brandedtheir delights ‘‘crisps’’ todistinguish them frommass-produced ‘‘chips’’. And they are
different. I just love themcrushed and sprinkled overicecream. The rapport between
the salty tang of the chips andthe sweetness of the icecream isa taste treat.The potato is certainly
common and a staple worldwide.They are cheap, hardy and easyto grow, and are high in starch,protein and vitamins. They arealso versatile.We all love thetraditional potato favourites butthis week I’m serving upsomething funky— potatoeswith icecream, in chocolatetruffles, with squid and in agluten-free pastry.
RECIPESTOFFEE & POTATOCRISPS VANILLAICECREAMProper Crisps are delicate.Perfect for coating icecream.

Refreeze the scoops oficecream. When hard, roll in thecrushed crisps and coconut.Freeze, until ready to serve.
To make the toffee, placesugar and water in a large,microwave-proof glass bowl.Microwave on high for 2minutes.
Stir to dissolve sugar.Continue microwaving for 3-4minutes until liquid is lightgolden. Remove — the toffeewill continue to colour onstanding.
Remove icecream fromfreezer. Place in meringuenests, if using. Drizzle withtoffee. Serve immediately.
Serves 4.

1 cup dark chocolate chips1/2 cup cold cooked mashedpotatoes1/2 tsp vanilla essence4-5 pieces crystallised gingerDark cocoa powder for dusting
Place chocolate chips in amicrowave-proof bowl. Melt on50 per cent power for about 2minutes. When completelymelted, stir into mashed potatovery well.Add vanilla essence and stir wellagain. The mixture should besmooth. Chill for 30 minutes.

Relax in the cosy lounge, entertain your friends in the dining area or sit in the sunroom and soak up the warmth of the winter sun while enjoying the views. These living areas flow nicely out onto the large deck where you can relax, sheltered from the easterly, and feel connected to life going on below you in Moncks Bay.
Deceptively spacious; the home also offers a large galley kitchen, 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a very useful mezzanine area. Combine this with a double garage on the Main Road at the foot of Mulgans Track and all your bases are covered as a family home.
Surrounded by native shrubs and trees; the sounds of bell birds will call to you as you sit and enjoy your own private paradise protected by the nature of the walk-in access to the home.

Billy T Award winning comedian and star of the hit feature film, What We Do In The Shadows, Chilean born New Zealander, Cori Gonzalez-Macuer, brings his unique comedy stylings to Morrell & Co for one night only.
Following sold out shows in Auckland and Wellington during this year's NZ International Comedy Festival, this is one hour of award winning stand-up, not to be missed.
As seen on the Old Mout Comedy Gala and a regular on 7Days, Cori is one of NZ's finest young comedy talents. The last year has seen him attend the prestigious Sundance and Berlin Film Festivals as part of the What We Do In The Shadows team as well as attending the film's U.S. premiere in New York, whereafter, he performed massive shows across New York and L.A., alongside some of the biggest names in the industry like Hannibal Burress, Nick Kroll, Jeffrey Ross and Kristen Schaal.
WIth a busy second half of the year, which includes a recent addition to the family and more shows overseas, this might be the last time to see him live in
Christchurch for a while.
Opening for Cori will be local comics Snap RuseWebsites (self professed national sex icon) and Dylan Neale ('blind' stand up comedian).
Cori Gonzalez-Maucer performs this Thursday (17 th September) at Morrell & Co, 280 Lincoln Rd, phone 423 1440. Tickets on sale now at Eventfinda.
