What'cha got cookin?

Pooooo-weeee the stink of onions boiling away in my house.  Reminds me of my childhood visits to my grans house where she would cook onions in white sauce...smells gross, tastes GOOD.

I am boiling red onions, and avocado skin and a pit for a Science experiment on natural dyes.  Hopefully the students are surprised by the dye colours they produce? 

I'll also do a red cabbage dye and then change the colour using an alkaline and acid.

Kitchen science is such FUN.

 Nau mai ki te akomanga 6.

Well, this hasn't quite been the start to the year we expected, but as a wise young man once told me: 

  IT IS, WHAT IT IS!  

This may be our new normal and we need to be prepared for lockdown again.

It is important we don't lose heart 💖, and remember to find our happy place 😁 while we are away from our classmates.
