Movember Foodie Events
04-Nov-2010 No this is not one of my typos. It really is Movember! In addition to the usually hairy exploits that will no doubt occur over the month we have quite a few foodie and related events coming up that we hope will be of interest. The major events all seem to be over the same weekend… our pick is the Waiheke Olive festival and I hope to go along with my family, so we may see you there.Waiheke Olive Festival 2010
