DAY 31: SUCCULENT IN THE CITY

In life all things had to adapt to the self-isolation we saw ourselves in. These plants had to move from their comfy country life to living the life of a succulent in the city. They have gotten on and grown just fine. We all did. Well done, everyone.

DAY 31: BAY FARMS AND BEYOND

Our team grew obsessed with the delivery options that became available through Level 4 lockdown.  Out with the old and in with the new insanely delicious fare that was on offer to be delivered to your doorstep. 

Bay Farms specializes in advocados and kiwi fruit grown in New Zealand for New Zealanders to enjoy. Freshly harvested, packaged, shipped out and received within a few days of ordering. Brilliant work, team. These just arrived today and despite the alert adjustment, we are pretty sure to be sticking to having these delivered on the regular.

29: ODDLY GOOD TIMES

DAY 28: REORG GOALS

We are all writing and living with different goals and perspectives from our bubbles. My organizational goal was this image seen above. Almond Tree Designs & Styling My Interior out of Australia posted this and it immediately became my inspiration. So tidy. It still remains just a goal of mine as I have done nothing in regards to organization. I am homeschooling on the fly and baking bread with the best of them. We will be in this for a few more weeks now so perhaps by some miracle it could happen in my home nonetheless, this photo has been pinned to my Pinterest and burned on my brain as one of my primary post-lockdown goals.

DAY 28: ORGANIC TO GO

Today should have been the last day of the blog. However,we have been told today that there will be some additional time in lockdown. This is a smart measure considering staying home has actually attributed to us staying safe and healthy reflected in lower Covid cases across the board in NZ. So we will continue on until who knows when while we socially distance ourselves for at least another few weeks. In the meantime, we will make a real effort to undo the damage that the last few weeks of gluttony have created. Huckleberry is the online organic grocery store. It has most everything stocked from groceries to home care, personal items and earth-friendly essentials can all be found online all delivered direct to your doorstep in line with current shipping rules and regulations. We have a few more weeks of this so perhaps setting some short-term goals with small changes for the sake of life longevity. Food is life so eat the best of it.

DAY 27: EARTH DAY AND BEYOND

Today we celebrate Earth Day. How fitting it falls within the confides of Covid. We are all reflecting in our own way and hopefully found our own personal ways to give back to Mother Nature and all that she does for us. She feeds us, fuels us, sustains us. We should all give thanks and look towards the future for guiding more considered decisions these days. Plant a tree. Refuse to use a product that is bad for the environment. Grow a garden. Donate to a worldwide foundation. Just showing consideration is key to moving towards a better world for all. Big brands are doing their part for the day and let Maggie Marilyn set the example for us all.
