13 Sep 2014 It was another scorcher at the market this morning. While most of the island hit the beach, me and Aroko made the most of the new water fountain at the Punanga Nui playground. Pepe also picked up a fresh-T from Fresh Local, and got a mean-as scorpion tattoo from Geena. Family friends dropped-by, plus Edith and Jeremy added a booth pic to their wedding photo album. Nice!

30 Aug 2014 Despite appearances, folks other than our family use the booth :). This week it was farewell to Nana Neen, Pat, and Jaz, and kia orana to Numa and Precious. We helped celebrate a honeymoon, a ‘break with the girls’, and a stopover between Miami and Fiji. Plus a grab-bag of BFFs, birthdays, and family pix.

23 Aug 2014 Weather permitted, so we were back at the market this week. With the Shapeshifter / Tiki Tane / Upbeats + support acts at Rehab last night, we had some CHCH massive picking up breakfast and grabbing quik pix. New arrivals to the island – 2am flight that is – joined us to soak up the island vibes. We helped celebrate some fabulous birthdays and family ties, including a cameo by Aroko’s Nana Neen, plus extended kuki family ex-Welly. All goods :).

9 Aug 2014 Back after a break due to the 50km+ trade winds that buffeted the island last week. Plenty of family and friends, friends of the family, and families of friends visited us this morning. Aroko’s appetite for Tuhe’s nu has increased. We missed out on the BBQ chicken so had a grilled fish sandwich instead. Ella returned with Shannon’s mum. Tipo took a post-haircutting pic (in a sweet T from Fresh Local), and we showed Ange, Nick and Taylor around the market.

19 Jul 2014 A manea morning, with a gentle sunrise and altogether pleasant ride into town for the market. This week we farewelled Tayla who leaves the rock next week for AU – meitaki ma'ata from the whole booth family :). Our cousins are here for a mid-winter break and compulsory shots. School’s out in NZ so we had big families and touring parties stopping-by. We also saw some returning boothers. See you again next week.

12 Jul 2014 We had a lot of fun with our boothers this morning. Families on holiday were hamming-it-up, cousins and BFFs let their hair down; we helped celebrate a birthday; plus visits from family friends Karen and Neil. Aroko has learnt to walk from aunty’s stall to ours (unassisted - gulp!). Elsewhere fresh nita (pawpaw or papaya) available, limes are all good, plus zesty grapefruit - a personal breakfast juice fav.

5 Jul 2014 It’s the NZ school holidays, so we had plenty of families exploring the markets, enjoying the food, entertainment, crafts and taking a few pix too. Paw paw are starting to be available again, there are a few tomatoes about, but it’s best to get to the market early if you want fresh produce. On the main stage the visiting Hamilton Boys ensemble were playing fonky music. :)

28 Jun 2014 More families and visiting Kukis to juggle into the booth this morning.
Just behind us Geena (well, for the moment Tevai), has the Napa’s Raro Temporary Tattoo stand up-and-running. Harry reckons there are over 1000 different designs to choose from, plus when you get tat’d, ask for your Island Booth voucher and get $1 off your next strip.

21 Jun 2014 The peak season for the island has now started. Large groups of families and friends came to visit this morning, keeping us busy arranging our various-height stools. Athletes are arriving for the Oceania Athletics Championships; plus we had a return visit from our dental interns. Elsewhere in the market, the first crop of sweetcorn has been harvested, but there’s little nita or tomati to be found.
