major froth for the block cafe!! theblockcafenz is ya ideal sunday brunch place with big portions, great buzz and delishhh meals 😮💨 i can never look past corn fritters, and these ones were particularly fluffy and crunchy 🤤 super generous on the avo and bacon fronts, i also loved the chilli jam at the bottom 😲😲 the blueberry ricotta pancakes were a firm fav, esp w the crumb and maple-y cream 🤩 the sri lankan chicken lollipops were battered and then coated in a sticky sauce that packed a real heat, defs messy but a great addition to the meal 🤪 hugeee portion of skinny fries for the price, so we stan 🥰 the only averagé was the eggs bene but def the perfect brunch place with such good food, worth going for 😍

After an unexpected storm, even a giant tree could fall into half and damaged anything closed to it! You do need some luck in life of who you work with, cooperate with and befriended with! #luckandgianttree #unexpectedstorm #blockhousebayauckland
Blockhouse Bay, l like it. A community where people would stop and still talk to a stranger who looks foreign. People here to me are as beautiful as these beautiful roses greeted me upon entering the Amanasco House for a day of piano teaching, it is the historical building of BHBay, opened for public viewing in certain days of a week.
Yes, l have been travelling and cruising around since earlier morning and returning to Blockhouse Bay again due to l have forgotten to return the keys after renting the BHBay community center's hall and kitchen. This is second round whole NZ teachers strike this year 2018. This BHBay teachers group is the largest and most cooperative group l have come across. Lucky that BHBay students have them as their teachers, my more than 30 yrs teaching experience told me here in the community crouched the excellent leadership and real educational gems. You could tell the community shows their support to them as well..Treat your teachers kindly and nicely, they have to get up earlier than anyone and sleep later than anyone due to writing reports required. Show them your appreciation this Christmas please, bring them a bottle of wine is not too much!
