Lamb, Lemon and Olive Pasta.
This is a kind of lightened-up bolognese using lamb mince. It’s nice with a baby spinach salad on the side.
Portions: 4
Time to make: 30 minutes

This website is awesome for anyone off to run this weekend.
It is a free service. You just plug in your desired time (or distance and time for “other than marathon”) and it will calculate suggested split times and enable you to print them out as a wristband to wear and refer to in the race.

Finally! The winner of the Blendtec blender is ….

Sorry. Blame it on me. We had some wonderful suggestions as to what should be blended in the Blendtec blender. Garden bugs. Chewing gum and i-Pods – the two most annoying things on public transport. I loved this one from SNICE – The other thing that I would love to blend would be that stuff [...]

If you, like me, are completely at a loss as to who you’ll be voting for, political blog Pundit has a great quiz. You may be very surprised at the result – I sure as hell was! Here’s the site:

I know, I know. You’ve got a cold which will probably turn into the flu by Sunday. You have a dreadful pain in your hip/knee/glute. You haven’t done nearly enough training; there’s simply no WAY you can run 21ks. Or 42ks. Depending on what you’ve entered. This whole running business is a bloody stupid idea, [...]

Pre-marathon pasta lunch.

It’s a tradition in New York to share a pasta dinner with other runners before the marathon. I thought it might be nice if we share a lunch before the Auckland Marathon on Saturday 1st of November. What I need from you is an expression of interest and numbers of those who’ll be attending. We’ll [...]
My own ‘tea-party’ and Putaruru Think Pink.
Posted in Kerre's Diary on Tuesday, 21 October, 2008 | 3 Comments »
Earlier this month, I went to the Tim Tam Think Pink Tea Party where we were encouraged to host tea parties to raise money for the Breast Cancer Aoetaroa Coalition. I’m not really a tea party type of girl so I put on pink champagne and invited my colleagues at NewsTalk ZB to come round [...]
