The Aussie & NZ Thread!

We have a new thread, Aussies/NZers!

QueenV · **Posted:** Wed Oct 20, 2010 12:35 pm

If anyone who posts in this thread is interested in doing some recipe testing for a new book project then PM me. I developed a bunch of recipes over out (Canadian) summer which need more testing, and as you are heading into summer it makes perfect sense to get people from Australia and NZ on board. Any questions just ask.

ETA - thanks for everyone volunteering. I'm good for now.

sweet as, we get our own thread?
I actually have nothing productive to add but will be keen as to see if any more kiwis come out of the woodwork : )

Kitteh · **Posted:** Wed Oct 20, 2010 4:44 pm

We had an Aussie thread on the old boards and the NZ PPKers posted in it too so now it belongs to all of us. And the rest of them should be here soon!

All this newness was terribly exciting to wake up to this morning. Can this render my productivity at work today even lower than usual? CHALLENGE ACCEPTED.

Yay, hi Erin!

Where is everyone, aren't they awake yet? Or are they all (GASP) actually being productive?

IMPOSSIBLE!!

My day has pretty much been a PPK write off.
I am originally from NZ, born in Whakatane, lived in all sorts of places in NZ, then in Noosa and Port Douglas in QLD, then in Scotland and now here. I count as sort of belonging in this thread. but only sort of.

I just got a delivery of chocolate from the Curious Chocolatier! 3 flavours: blueberry almond, mint raspberry and sea salt pistachio. Buy some! I really should be having my green smoothie but I just ate 4 squares of the blueb almond!

Maybe they all got lost? Come back Aussies & NZers!

Hello! I used to be VeganAmy, but KoalaT sounded much cooler. How are all my Aussie/NZ vegan peeps this morning?
I'm avoiding listening to lecture recordings! Tee hee....

BrisVegan · **Posted:** Wed Oct 20, 2010 7:16 pm

Hi all! I used to be Eucalypt and am now BrisVegan, after my blog and twitter names.

Like KoalaT, I should be doing Uni stuff (marking, that I am being paid for), but have decided I need an early coffee break and PPK time. I will pay for this when I am marking at midnight tonight.

BTW, if you are in Brisbane/Southeast Qld, come along to our meet-up at the Loving Hut on Saturday 23 October at 12.30. Loving Hut is at Shop 2, 1420 Logan Rd, Mount Gravatt.

Hello! And I used to be so bad with lecture recordings. I would get all psyched for recorded lectures because it meant I could stay home and listen to them later while naked or in bed or whatever, but I don't think I ever once was motivated enough to actually listen to one.

Hello NZ'ers and Aussies! I used to be RoflMyWaffle, but that was a silly name so now im Sforzand. Hope you all are having a great day!

I had to leave at 5am for workies. But I'm here now! Yay!

Oh and I'll be there on sat for the Brissy meetup! Except I don't know what you look like so you'll have to yell at me when I get there (there is a picture of me in the 'what are you wearing today' thread). Or you can add me on facebook so I can facebook stalk you first http://www.facebook.com/gelsworth

Hello everyone!

I've got the day off work tomorrow so am hoping the weather stays nice. I'm almost giddy with excitement, it's a bit sad really...

I'd just like to add that QueenV's recipes are awesome, so go test :)
