Tiny baby has goal to be big performer<br />

INSPIRATION: Jasmine Butcher has gone from weighing 665gm at birth to becoming a music<br />

student with dreams of performing on Broadway.<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

JASMINE BUTCHER was a<br />

very special baby. She was born<br />

15 weeks early, weighing only<br />

665gm, and just clinging to life.<br />

Her parents Maree and<br />

Norm Butcher were told she was<br />

at high risk of developmental<br />

delays or disability.<br />

But the Heathcote resident has<br />

overcome the odds and now at<br />

19, has dreams of making it big<br />

on New York’s Broadway.<br />

Hosing<br />

ban<br />

causes<br />

issues for<br />

Akaroa<br />

• By Jess Gibson<br />

A TOTAL hosing ban in Akaroa<br />

has been causing issues in the<br />

community.<br />

Level four restrictions were<br />

set for the township, along with<br />

Duvauchelle and Takamatua,<br />

at the beginning of February as<br />

very dry conditions were putting<br />

pressure on water supplies.<br />

The ban means people cannot<br />

use water outside their homes,<br />

so the use of hand-held hoses,<br />

unattended hoses, sprinklers, and<br />

garden irrigation systems is not<br />

allowed.<br />

Water to fill pools or paddling<br />

pools is also prohibited.<br />

There have been several issues<br />

since the ban was set for residents,<br />

business owners and schools,<br />

which were not given any warning<br />

beforehand.<br />

Akaroa Area School has<br />

had to cancel events, including<br />

inter-school swimming sports,<br />

as the pool could not be filled.<br />

Said principal Brent Ingram:<br />

“It’s something we don’t want<br />

to do but of course, we’ve got no<br />

control over that.<br />

IF YOU want to see some great surfing,<br />

New Brighton will be the place to be.<br />

The annual Duke Festival of Surfing<br />

starts on Friday and runs through the<br />

weekend (see page 8).<br />

It is probably the biggest event on the Canterbury surfing<br />

calendar. Fingers crossed the weather will play its part and<br />

provide good, big waves.<br />

Sumner board riders will be heavily represented in the<br />

various divisions, from juniors through to over 60s, and the<br />

longboarders. They should bring a good haul of titles home. No<br />

surprises there.<br />

And watch out for Jack Tyro and Amelie Clark and other<br />

youngsters in the The Point Surf Team, all of whom have great<br />

futures ahead of them in the sport.<br />

Bid for lookout over harbour<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

A $370,000 lookout is being<br />

proposed for the car park<br />

opposite the Sign of the Bellbird<br />

in Kennedys Bush with a view of<br />

Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong>.<br />

The Summit Road Society is<br />

currently consulting the public<br />

on the proposal to decide on a<br />

finalised option which it will put<br />

forward to the city council for<br />

consideration.<br />

It has secured more than<br />

half of the funds needed to<br />

build the lookout through a<br />

combination of its own funds<br />

and a $150,000 grant from the<br />

city council.<br />

Options for gaining the<br />

rest of the funding are being<br />

investigated, including setting<br />

up a Givealittle page in the near<br />

future.<br />

Said the society’s secretary<br />

Marie Gray: “What we’re<br />

proposing is a low stone wall<br />

which is in the style of Harry<br />

Ell’s rest houses . . . some<br />

steps, a lookout platform,<br />

all complemented by native<br />

planting and also disability<br />

access around the side.”<br />

Harry Ell was a city councillor<br />

and member of Parliament in<br />

the early 1900s. He is famous for<br />

his advocacy for the Summit Rd<br />

HIKING BOOTS<br />

& SHOES<br />

For men, women<br />

and children<br />

From<br />

$79.95<br />

to $250<br />

and conservation work around<br />

the Port Hills.<br />

His grandson John Jameson<br />

founded the Summit Road<br />

Society in 1948 and the lookout<br />

will be named after Mr Jameson<br />

if it is approved.<br />

Mrs Gray said the idea for<br />

a new lookout has existed for<br />

“absolutely years,” but the<br />

society started really pushing<br />

for it after Mr Jameson’s death<br />

in 2018.<br />

“If you stand at the edge of<br />

that car park, you’re just like,<br />

wow, it takes your breath away,<br />

tree trouble?<br />

it’s such an amazing view. But<br />

it’s pretty rough up there at the<br />

It’s just a car park.<br />

she said.<br />

Mrs Gray said naming the<br />

lookout The John Jameson<br />

he and Harry Ell did for the area<br />

around it.<br />

The society has outlined<br />

the proposal in its current<br />

form to the Spreydon-<br />

and consultation with the<br />

community is ongoing.<br />

In Brief<br />

REPAIRS NEARLY FINISHED<br />

Repairs to the Scarborough<br />

The completion date for<br />

restoration work on the historic,<br />

earthquake-damaged structure<br />

and again in February after<br />

contractors found the concrete<br />

in worse condition than initial<br />

investigations suggested.<br />

END OF SUMMER READS<br />

NEW RELEASES<br />

GREAT READS INSTORE<br />

Here We Are<br />

by Graham Swift<br />

The extraordinary new novel from the winner of the Booker Prize in<br />

1996 for Last Orders<br />

It is Brighton, 1959, and the theatre at the end of the pier is<br />

having its best summer season in years. Ronnie, a brilliant young<br />

magician, and Evie, his dazzling assistant, are top of the bill,<br />

drawing audiences each night. Meanwhile, Jack – Jack Robinson,<br />

as in ‘before you can say’ – is everyone’s favourite compère, a born<br />

entertainer, holding the whole show together.<br />

As the summer progresses, the off-stage drama between the three<br />

begins to overshadow their theatrical success, and events unfold<br />

which will have lasting consequences for all their futures.<br />

New Feast: Modern Middle Eastern<br />

Vegetarian<br />

by Greg and Lucy Malouf<br />

Delve into beautiful, delicious vegetarian food from the masters of Middle<br />

Eastern cuisine. The Middle East—from North Africa and Moorish Spain,<br />

through Turkey, Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan to the Arabian Peninsula—has<br />

long had a vibrant tradition of home-style vegetarian cuisine— from their<br />

abundant fresh salads, dips, and breads to a diverse collection of delicious<br />

and hearty main meals. Greg and Lucy Malouf’s recipes are designed for<br />

sharing and enjoying in company.<br />

Their approach to vegetarian food comes from their love of traditional Middle<br />

Eastern flavor combinations and the importance of color and texture. The<br />

recipes are new interpretations of Middle Eastern food, inspired by the spirit of<br />

generosity and sharing that characterizes the region.<br />

Caging Skies<br />

by Christine Leunens<br />

A gripping, atmospheric novel about obsession and love.<br />

Inspiring a major film, this gripping novel examines truth and lies, and<br />

lays bare our darkest impulses. I was sure I heard steps up and down<br />

the hall in the middle of the night. Johannes is an avid member of the<br />

Hitler Youth. As the war rages on, he discovers his parents are hiding<br />

a Jewish girl called Elsa behind a false wall in their large house in<br />

Vienna. His initial horror turns to love and obsession.<br />

Both manipulating and manipulated, Johannes soon finds he is<br />

the only one aware of Elsa’s existence in the house, the only one<br />

responsible for her survival.<br />

‘It is a beautiful novel, powerful, different, and ambitious.’ — Le Monde.<br />

When Time Stopped<br />

A Memoir of My Father’s War and What remains<br />

by Ariana Neumann<br />

In this remarkably moving memoir Ariana Neumann dives into the<br />

secrets of her father’s past: years spent hiding in plain sight in wartorn<br />

Berlin, the annihilation of dozens of family members in the Holocaust,<br />

and the courageous choice to build anew. In 1941, the first Neumann<br />

family member was taken by the Nazis, arrested in German-occupied<br />

Czechoslovakia for bathing in a stretch of river forbidden to Jews.<br />

He was transported to Auschwitz. Eighteen days later his prisoner<br />

number was entered into the morgue book. Of thirty-four Neumann<br />

family members, twenty-five were murdered by the Nazis. One of the<br />

survivors was Hans Neumann, this book is his daughter Ariana’s<br />

tribute to her father.<br />

Little Green Kitchen<br />

Simple vegetarian family recipes<br />

by david Frenkiel and Luise Vindahl<br />

Like most families, David and Luise know that the road to feeding your<br />

children isn’t always a straight one. They have raised three kids while<br />

writing their acclaimed vegetarian cookbooks and have experienced a<br />

fair share of food tossed on the floor and soup bowls left untouched.<br />

But they have also learned ways around this. In this book they share<br />

their passion for cooking fun, modern, wholesome meals with kids’<br />

palates in mind, but that also are interesting enough for adults to<br />

enjoy. Take your own inspiration from their quest to bring joy back<br />

to the dinner table: whip up a batch of Dino Burgers (made with<br />

spinach, quinoa, oats and peas), Spinach Waffles, or Stuffed Rainbow<br />

Tomatoes with black rice, feta, raisins and cinnamon.<br />

Fire Brigade<br />

deputy chief<br />

officer Stuart Weaver said<br />

crews from Governors<br />

<strong>Bay</strong> and Lyttelton received<br />

reports of a bush on fire<br />

about <strong>11</strong>.20pm.<br />

Upon arrival, they discovered<br />

a fully lit car halfway<br />

up a driveway, hanging<br />

over a bank.<br />

While firefighters were<br />

extinguishing the blaze,<br />

a member of the public<br />

called police and reported<br />

two vehicles allegedly leaving<br />

the scene of the fire.<br />

A police spokeswoman<br />

said the Eagle went to<br />

the scene of the fire, then<br />

commenced searching for<br />

the vehicles and quickly<br />

located two which fitted<br />

the description given by the<br />

caller.<br />

She said the Eagle continued<br />

tracking the two<br />

cars and was able to<br />

direct police units on the<br />

ground to their location.<br />

However, after speaking<br />

to the occupants of the<br />

cars, police were able to<br />

confirm they had not been<br />

involved in the vehicle fire<br />

as they had driven past the<br />

fire while firefighters were<br />

in attendance.<br />

Goal to pursue US career<br />

•From page 1<br />

She has just started her second<br />

year of a music degree at Canterbury<br />

University.<br />

In five years, the goal will be<br />

pursuing a musical career in the<br />

United States. Broadway is at the<br />

top of the list.<br />

“One of my dreams since I<br />

was little was to move to the<br />

US and become a singer,<br />

actress or Broadway star. That<br />

dream is still very alive today,”<br />

she said.<br />

“Whether I do ever make<br />

it to the US or whether I just<br />

start off doing some shows for<br />

more local places like Showbiz<br />

[Christchurch] or The Court<br />

Theatre, anything to achieve<br />

my dreams would be<br />

amazing.”<br />

From when Jasmine was threeand-a-half<br />

months old until<br />

she was four, she attended the<br />

Champion Centre at Burwood<br />

Hospital. The centre provides<br />

early intervention services for<br />

children with significant developmental<br />

delays and disabilities<br />

up to the age of six.<br />

Jasmine says it played a significant<br />

part in getting her ready for<br />

school.<br />

“I feel like the centre definitely<br />

helped me to catch up with my<br />

peers because like, I was always<br />

a little bit, well not behind but,<br />

like, a couple of steps behind<br />

everybody else.<br />

“By the time I was at primary<br />

school I was, like, ahead of everyone<br />

else,” she said.<br />

Jasmine’s sessions at the centre<br />

involved both group and one-onone<br />

work.<br />

She struggled with matching<br />

things such as patterns and pairs<br />

but was able to use computer<br />

software that teaches basic skills<br />

in reading, identifying shapes,<br />

matching objects and letters,<br />

counting and using a computer<br />

mouse.<br />

Said Jasmine: “If I hadn’t gone<br />

through all that, I probably<br />

wouldn’t be where I am today,<br />

you know. I wouldn’t have been<br />

able to catch up on things and<br />

wouldn’t have probably found<br />

‘If I hadn’t<br />

gone through<br />

all that, I<br />

probably<br />

wouldn’t be<br />

where I am<br />

today.’<br />

– Jasmine<br />

Butcher<br />

school as easy as what I did. I<br />

probably would have struggled<br />

more.”<br />

She took up singing, keyboard<br />

lessons, started tap and jazz<br />

dancing and piano lessons after<br />

primary school.<br />

Mrs Butcher credits the Champion<br />

Centre as a big factor in<br />

Jasmine’s progress.<br />

“By the time she started primary<br />

school, she hit the ground<br />

running and was ahead of other<br />

kids,” she said.<br />

About 100 children<br />

currently attend intensive<br />

weekly programmes at the<br />

centre in Burwood, with a<br />

further 89 children attending<br />

less frequently as part of a<br />

monitoring service for children<br />

born prematurely.<br />

No lifting of water<br />

restrictions until<br />

stream flows increase<br />

•From page 1<br />

“The biggest thing is frustration<br />

for parents who want to support<br />

their kids.”<br />

Banks Peninsula Community<br />

Board member Jamie Stewart<br />

said Akaroa went from having<br />

no water restrictions to level four<br />

“pretty much overnight.”<br />

“The community<br />

wasn’t<br />

given an<br />

option to conserve<br />

water,”<br />

he said.<br />

“I get a lot<br />

of people talking<br />

about not<br />

being able to<br />

water their<br />

Jamie Stewart<br />

gardens and veges. Akaroa has a<br />

bit of an ageing population and<br />

gardens are really important to<br />

them.”<br />

Outside of his role on the community<br />

board, Mr Stewart owns<br />

Peninsula Trading Post, which<br />

sells plants and gardening items.<br />

He said sales of those items<br />

have dropped by about 80 per<br />

cent since the start of the ban.<br />

The rest of Christchurch and<br />

Banks Peninsula currently have<br />

level one restrictions in place,<br />

City council head of three<br />

three times a week to determine<br />

whether restriction levels can be<br />

Fundraisers for Lachie’s cancer battle<br />

• By Jess Gibson<br />

“AS A result of this most<br />

unwanted experience, you get to<br />

see the very best in people.”<br />

This is Huntsbury mother<br />

Kelly Sharpe’s reaction to the<br />

support her family has received<br />

as her 12-year-old son, Lachie<br />

Sutherland, battles neuroblastoma<br />

for a second time.<br />

So far, about $26,000 has been<br />

raised towards an $80,000 goal to<br />

afford self-funded MIGD therapy<br />

in Sydney, which Lachie is scheduled<br />

to receive later this month.<br />

The treatment delivers targeted<br />

radiation to the rare type of cancer<br />

which develops in infants and<br />

young children.<br />

With a number of fundraisers<br />

to go Mrs Sharpe is “very optimistic”<br />

the target will be met.<br />

An auction and comedy night<br />

with live music on Saturday at The<br />

Tannery’s Cassels Blue Smoke is<br />

the next event, and Mrs Sharpe is<br />

hoping to sell 350 tickets.<br />

Following that, there will be a<br />

quiz night, karma keg night and<br />

a Hoyts movie screening.<br />

Before his MIGD therapy, Lachie<br />

has spent the past five months<br />

undergoing eight rounds of<br />

chemotherapy and seven cycles of<br />

immunotherapy and radiation.<br />

He relapsed with neuroblastoma<br />

in August after showing<br />

no evidence of the disease since<br />

2013.<br />

It was 2012 when Lachie was<br />

diagnosed for the first time.<br />

He flew to Sydney, aged four, to<br />

receive MIGD therapy and was<br />

there for his fifth birthday.<br />

His last treatment fell around<br />

the same time as his father, Chris<br />

Sutherland, died from metastatic<br />

melanoma after having been<br />

diagnosed the month before.<br />

But six years on, Lachie was<br />

embracing life.<br />

About to embark on his final<br />

year of primary school and excitedly<br />

considering high school<br />

options.<br />

Relapse was the last thing on<br />

anyone’s mind.<br />

Said Mrs Sharpe: “I think<br />

everyone was surprised when<br />

the results came back showing a<br />

relapse.<br />

“We were devastated and<br />

HUMBLED:<br />

Kelly Sharpe,<br />

Lachie<br />

Sutherland and<br />

Jon Sharpe<br />

feel fortunate<br />

to have had<br />

the support<br />

of so many<br />

people during<br />

Lachie’s second<br />

battle with<br />

neuroblastoma<br />

cancer.<br />

heartbroken and quickly catapulted<br />

back into a world we never<br />

wanted to revisit.<br />

It was made harder by the fact<br />

Mrs Sharpe had lost her mother<br />

to cancer early last year.<br />

But in finding a silver lining,<br />

she said she has been “really<br />

fortunate to have the support of<br />

so many wonderful people.<br />

“I think we all struggle to<br />

rationalise why a child should<br />

have to experience cancer, so<br />

when they do, it seems to be<br />

something that calls people to<br />

action. They want to help, to<br />

make a difference and ease his<br />

suffering.”<br />

Sumner surfers should feature<br />

in Duke Festival of Surfing<br />

• By Warren Hawke<br />

SUMNER SURFERS are<br />

expected to have a big impact<br />

during The Ray White New<br />

Brighton Duke Festival<br />

of Surfing from Friday to<br />

Sunday.<br />

On Friday, the shortboard<br />

surfing begins with the under-12<br />

years events in which<br />

Poppy Entwistle and Benji<br />

Lowen are expected to do well<br />

in the girls and boys finals.<br />

In the under-14 age group<br />

Jack Tyro in the boys and<br />

Amelie Clark in the girls are<br />

likely finalists as well.<br />

These surfers will be accompanied<br />

by several other<br />

Sumner grommets who are<br />

members of The Point Surf<br />

Team.<br />

The much-coveted Duke<br />

Trophy along with accompanying<br />

prizes are all part of the<br />

rewards for surfing the sometimes,<br />

difficult conditions<br />

New Brighton beach beside<br />

the pier often produces.<br />

Top New Zealand surfer<br />

Estella Hungerford who has<br />

strong links to Sumner will be<br />

helping some inexperienced<br />

surfers with new skills about<br />

surfing around the pier which<br />

can be known for its rips on<br />

an out-going tide.<br />

On Saturday morning the<br />

longboard competitions will<br />

begin and Sumner surfers are<br />

expected to provide finalists in<br />

nearly every division.<br />

Casper McCormick, Luke<br />

O’Neil, Seb Johnson are all locals<br />

who could make the Open<br />

Longboard final which is one<br />

of The Duke’s premier events.<br />

Others who could well be<br />

winners are Steve Andrews in<br />

the 50s and Grant Cochrane<br />

in the over 60s men’s sections.<br />

Sumner longboarders,<br />

Lucy Temoananui, Lucy<br />

Johnson, Minnie Robberds<br />

and Anneliese Coberger and<br />

Brittany Andrews could also<br />

find themselves in a number<br />

of finals.<br />

Sumner is so rich in top<br />

longboarders that they could<br />

quite easily have finalists in<br />

every section.<br />

A dark horse could be Ambrose<br />

McNeill who will return<br />

Your Local Views<br />

Readers respond to<br />

letters in last week’s<br />

<strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News<br />

regarding an article on<br />

rocks at the surface of<br />

Clifton Beach<br />

Pat McIntosh – I<br />

would just like to reply to<br />

some of your correspondents<br />

who wrote about<br />

the rocks now present on<br />

Clifton Beach, as I think<br />

they may be unaware of the<br />

extent of the problem.<br />

The pathway and seawall<br />

themselves are lovely – not<br />

a problem and much appreciated.<br />

But the beach<br />

area that was affected is not<br />

just the small section near<br />

Shag Rock, but extends the<br />

whole length of the excavations.<br />

Rocks that had lain<br />

buried up to 4m deep in<br />

the beach were distributed<br />

through the sand in the<br />

course of the works.<br />

Currently the high tide<br />

is cutting in just below the<br />

deposits and the concern<br />

is that if the beach changes<br />

shape, as it has in the past,<br />

these sharp stones will be<br />

even more widely distributed<br />

and start to affect the<br />

lower part of the beach<br />

where people like to paddle<br />

and swim. Not a good<br />

prospect.<br />

A small part is now covered<br />

by wind-blown sand,<br />

but this could just as easily<br />

get blown off again.<br />

And yes, people did consider<br />

removing some of the<br />

surface rocks themselves,<br />

but the job is far too big<br />

to be done without some<br />

machinery and the city<br />

council did not want any<br />

machinery used on the<br />

beach during the penguin<br />

nesting season.<br />

Jillian Wilson – Those<br />

rocks appeared on the<br />

beach during and following<br />

the recent construction of<br />

the Coastal Pathway. They<br />

are rock spoil. I’ve even<br />

brought one home as a souvenir<br />

as they don’t fit the<br />

geology of the area. I live<br />

on Clifton hill, walk the<br />

beach regularly and have<br />

done so for 20 years. To<br />

suggest that those rocks are<br />

occurring naturally simply<br />

isn’t true.<br />

They are rubbish, left<br />

lying on the beach by the<br />

contractors, and should be<br />

removed.<br />

That landscaping is<br />

unnatural to the area<br />

too, in spite of the plants<br />

chosen. I think the Coastal<br />

Pathway is a good idea<br />

but did we have to end up<br />

with sanitised landscaping,<br />

which has led to this<br />

appalling degradation of<br />

Clifton Beach?<br />

Tanya Jenkins is the manager of the Avon-Heathcote Estuary Ihutai Trust,<br />

a non-profit organisation formed in 2002 to protect one of New Zealand’s<br />

most important coastal wetlands. Each week she introduces a new bird<br />

found in the estuary. Her column aims to raise the understanding of the<br />

values and uniqueness of the area.<br />

Banded dotterel becoming<br />

a victim of modern society<br />

THE TINY little banded<br />

dotterel or tuturiwhatu is<br />

quickly becoming as rare as<br />

some of our kiwi species.<br />

Only 10 years ago some<br />

100 dotterel were counted<br />

around our estuary, last<br />

month only two single<br />

birds were counted.<br />

It is very likely that the<br />

banded dotterel will be<br />

another victim of modern<br />

society and increased predators<br />

such as hedgehogs,<br />

cats, dogs, rats and stoats.<br />

But we too are guilty of<br />

causing the loss of this tiny<br />

bird.<br />

As they nest on sand or<br />

gravel along the estuary<br />

edge and are extremely<br />

well camouflaged, we have<br />

trampled nests, often without<br />

realising, when taking<br />

out boats, paddleboards,<br />

surfboards, kayaks, windsurf<br />

boards or walking<br />

the dog out on the estuary<br />

shoreline.<br />

The Department of Conservation<br />

is trialling methods<br />

of protecting bird nests<br />

by covering the nest with a<br />

cage to make them visible<br />

RARITY: Banded dotterel numbers are dwindling due<br />

to predation and carelessness from people and pets.<br />

to people and preventing us<br />

from standing on the nests.<br />

They have seen some success<br />

but cages do not stop<br />

the nests from being raided<br />

by the predators. Watch<br />

this space.<br />

How can we help the<br />

dotterel numbers to thrive?<br />

Keep dogs on the lead<br />

when walking along the<br />

estuary edge. Keep an eye<br />

out for this tiny bird and<br />

stay well clear of them.

Tasty Bites<br />

Divine date night delights<br />

• By Ian Knott<br />

These delicious date<br />

night dishes are bound to<br />

impress your significant<br />

other - or better still,<br />

spend some quality time<br />

preparing and cooking<br />

them together<br />

Seared scallops with bacon<br />

and zucchini noodles<br />

Serves 2<br />

Ingredients<br />

3 slices bacon<br />

6 jumbo scallops<br />

2 zucchinis made into noodles<br />

½ large lemon, juiced (1½ Tbsp)<br />

1 tsp lemon zest<br />

1 cups chopped tomatoes<br />

1 Tbsp fresh parsley, chopped<br />

Salt and pepper to taste<br />

Directions<br />

Place a large, heavy skillet<br />

(cast iron will be best for searing<br />

scallops) over medium heat,<br />

add bacon and cook for 3-5min<br />

on each side or until crispy but<br />

not burnt (it will add a different<br />

texture to the dish). Remove<br />

bacon and transfer to a plate lined<br />

with paper towel. Crumble or<br />

roughly chop after it’s cool.<br />

Leave bacon fat in the skillet<br />

and remove skillet from heat<br />

(about 2-3min) to cool slightly.<br />

Pat scallops dry. Right before<br />

cooking, season scallops with<br />

salt & pepper. Do it any sooner,<br />

and the salt will draw out their<br />

moisture, making them wet again,<br />

and thus preventing that delicious<br />

caramelisation.<br />

Gently, add scallops one at a<br />

time to heated skillet. Add about<br />

1 Tbsp butter to pan only if you<br />

don’t have enough bacon fat left.<br />

Scallops cook quickly and if<br />

they’re overcooked, they will<br />

become rubbery. Once they are<br />

deeply golden brown, with a<br />

caramelised exterior (2-3min<br />

max), flip them only once when<br />

they’re nicely browned. Once<br />

browned on both sides, remove<br />

them to a plate.<br />

Add zucchini noodles to the<br />

same skillet and season with salt<br />

& pepper. Let zucchini noodles<br />

cook for about 1min, flipping and<br />

stirring frequently. As the noodles<br />

cook, add in the lemon juice and<br />

zest. Also, toss in tomatoes and<br />

crumbled bacon. Continue to<br />

cook for about 2-3min.<br />

Divide zucchini noodles onto<br />

four plates, top with scallops and<br />

garnish with fresh chopped<br />

parsley. Enjoy!<br />

Espresso<br />

brownies<br />

Ingredients<br />

1 egg at room<br />

temperature<br />

¼ cup + 2 Tbsp<br />

coconut oil<br />

½ cup espresso or<br />

strong brewed coffee<br />

⅔ cup of sugar<br />

¼ cup + 1 Tbsp coconut flour<br />

¼ cup cocoa powder<br />

3 Tbsp instant coffee<br />

2 tsp vanilla essence<br />

¼ tsp sea salt<br />

3 tsp cornflour or arrowroot<br />

Directions<br />

Preheat oven to 180 deg C and<br />

prepare an 20cm square baking<br />

pan by lining it with a sheet of<br />

aluminum foil, leaving overhang on<br />

the sides to allow for easy removal.<br />

Grease the foil and set aside.<br />

Combine all ingredients in a<br />

mixing bowl using an electric<br />

mixer and add to baking pan. You<br />

can also just mix by hand.<br />

Bake for about 25-30min until<br />

center is set. Allow brownies<br />

to cool for about 20min before<br />

cutting.<br />

REAL ESTATE<br />

‘Sea’ for miles<br />

28B Ripon Street, Lyttelton<br />

Buyer Inquiry over $620,000<br />

4 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 1 living room<br />

open-plan kitchen/dining | 1 car garage<br />

plus 1 carport - Listing no. 10099<br />

Elegant and stylish. Built for maximum<br />

sun with panoramic views over Lyttelton<br />

<strong>Harbour</strong> and surrounding hills across to<br />

Quail Island.<br />

Stroll up the driveway, past single garage<br />

and carport up a few steps across a deck<br />

onto the first level. Here you find three<br />

double bedrooms. The master bedroom<br />

has direct access to a lovely bathroom<br />

containing a shower, king-size bath and<br />

double his-and -hers sinks. A separate<br />

toilet and laundry are also located on this<br />

floor. Continue up the central stairway<br />

onto the second level landing. Turn left to<br />

the living, right to kitchen or diagonal to<br />

access the rear of the property.<br />

The private landscaped courtyard provides<br />

all day living, ideal for that morning cuppa<br />

to evening BBQs. Take time to breath in<br />

the fragrant Jasmine that adorns the trellis.<br />

The light-filled open-plan kitchen/dining<br />

area is the heart of the home. Here stunning<br />

picture-perfect sea views from the fulllength<br />

dining room window combine with<br />

high ceilings making for that feeling of<br />

spaciousness.<br />

Flow continues through to the living area<br />

where a balcony off this room provides<br />

additional living or entertaining space.<br />

Stairs continue through the centre of the<br />

house to a cleverly designed mezzanine<br />

floor. Again, be spoilt with superb views<br />

from the dining room windows. Having its<br />

own shower and toilet makes this a super<br />

fourth double bedroom, but if you want<br />

space, light, and a “special spot” in which<br />

to work from home, then this is just the<br />

space. This is one of those properties where<br />

careful planning, quality and convenience<br />

for modern day living will have you want<br />

to live here.<br />

Lyttelton has become a sought-after<br />
