Dessert that you can freeze can be handy. These could include cookies, brownies or Christmas mince pies. Texture's are important when serving multiple desserts. Try not to have everything soft. Break it up with a crunchy crumble, broken biscuits and nuts. Lighten the heavy creams up with fresh fruit. Strawberries, blackberries and boysenberries are in season and are perfect fat cutters.

In August 2014 Connor Morris was fatally injured during a street fight in West Auckland. He was struck in the head with a sickle-like tool and died instantly. Morris, 27, was a patched gang member, the son of a senior leader and was in a relationship with the daughter of one of New Zealand's most prominent broadcasters.  His murder and the trial for the man responsible, was high profile. A Moment In Crime writer and host Anna Leask covered the trial and sentencing for the Herald and looks back a the case 10 years on, as the killer becomes eligible for parole.  Michael Thrift Murry admitted he killed Connor. But, he claimed there was no murderous intent, that he was trying to defend his younger brother from being attacked. After a two-week trial a jury of eight men and four women found him guilty. He was jailed for life with a minimum non-parole period of 10 years. The Morris family were contacted before the podcast aired. They did not want to comment publicly but wanted to ensure people knew how much their son, brother and partner was loved by them.

Cynric Temple-Camp is one of New Zealand's top pathologists - and he has just published his third book about his work. The Final Diagnosis is a collection of stranger-than-fiction stories of death, disease and murder - as well as Temple-Camp sharing new perspectives on high-profile cases, including the disappearance of Ben Smart and Olivia Hope and the trial of Mark Lundy. A Moment In Crime host Anna Leask spoke with Temple-Camp about the book, his career and why he is sure beyond reasonable doubt that Lundy is guilty.  Episodes of A Moment In Crime - written and hosted by Leask - usually focus on old cases, cold cases or recent cases of national and international significance involving Kiwi offenders or victims. But this episode comes from the other side of the cordon - from a person often charged with determining how and why a person died and, who is responsible. To read more about Temple-Camp, the Lundy case and other crimes covered by Leask for the Herald, click here. Episodes of A Moment In Crime are usually released monthly and, so far, Leask has covered more than 55 cases including the murders of Grace Millane, Scott Guy, Austin Hemmings, Carmen Thomas, Karen Aim; the deaths of the Kahui Twins, the Edgeware Rd murders, the Bain family murders, the Christchurch House of Horrors and the massacres at Raurimu and Aramoana. Last year, a three-part special covered the case of rich lister and philanthropist James Wallace who was convicted of sexually assaulting three men and was jailed and had his knighthood stripped from him as a result. A Moment In Crime has topped the overall and true crime charts on numerous occasions, and has listeners in more than 80 countries. The podcast was a finalist at the 2024 NZ Radio & Podcast Awards and won a silver award in the true crime category at the inaugural New Zealand Podcast Awards in 2021.

On May 5 2007 Lipine Sila murdered Hannah Rossiter and Jane Young and caused grievous bodily harm to eight other teens when he drove his car through a crowd outside a party in the Christchurch suburb of Edgeware.  The collision took place after Sila and his brother had been involved in fights at the gathering. Sila claimed he was scared for his life and was trying to get away from people attacking him - and that he never meant to harm any of the victims. However a jury found him guilty of murder and in 2008 he was jailed for life with a minimum non-parole period of 17 years.  The murders were like nothing seen in New Zealand before. They impacted many in Christchurch - from the family and friends of the dead girls to their schoolmates and community, the wider city and the country.  There was anger towards Sila, toward those who organised the party - which had been widely shared and discussed on social media in the week leading up to it - and police for their response when it was clear it was about to go haywire. In this episode of A Moment In Crime senior journalist Anna Leask revisit the Edgeware Road murders - taking you inside the tragic party, the police handling of it and the trial and sentencing of one of the country's most notorious double murderers.

One afternoon this week, after watching the glorious 80s inspired intergalactic silliness of Thor: Love and Thunder, I found myself driving down the motorway singing my lungs out to Guns and Roses – it's been a few decades since I've felt the inclination to do this!It was just over a month ago many of us rediscovered the rich emotive voice of Kate Bush, and realised how at home Kenny Loggins Danger Zone still is in 2022.While Top Gun, Stranger Things and now Thor Love and Thunder may make it seem a flux of 80s' nostalgia is upon us, the 80s have been back with us for some time; those who can have long been wearing high waisted jeans and fluro nail polish.The prevalence of 80s on our TV, movie screens and Spotify play lists is nothing to fear. It's not a sign original ideas no longer exist. The 80s is simply a beloved decade and it's inevitable it will inspire and inform filmmakers and storytellers.It's mostly coincidence three recent screen events each nod to the 80s, the pandemic brought their release dates closer together.We've always looked to the past. In pop culture, decades often have a retro twin.In music, the 70s took inspiration from the rock'n'roll era of the 50s, the 80s was obsessed with the 60s and 90s looked back to the 70s for inspiration. When we hit the noughties, 80s electropop made a resurgence, and the 80s have continued to inspire this century.There's no denying laziness prevails at times when TV and film studios constantly look to the past to resurrect box office or audience numbers. The sometimes winning power of familiarity and a sense of fondness drive these decisions, but that shouldn't be the only thing considered.A revival also needs a modern take with a fresh point of view, or something new to say to. Top Gun isn't a global hit just because it's the sequel to a film released 36 years ago; it's also because it's thrilling, well-crafted entertainment staring one of the biggest movie stars in the world.Stranger Things works because it's inspired by 80s blockbusters but it's not trying to be a 80s blockbuster; it may bring back fond memories for viewers who remember the 80s but it is also a whole new experience for everyone watching.It doesn't always work, remember the 2016 Ghostbusters with an all-female cast?Other remake misadventures include, to name a few: Dynasty, Fame, Conan the Barbarian, Arthur, Annie, RoboCop, and MacGyver.Which all acts in stark contrast to one of the joys of the year.The New Zealand International Film Festival released its programme at the beginning of the week, and it reassures us that there is plenty of originality, ambition and artistic vision out there. So if you need a break from the 80s onslaught then head to NZIFF.co.nzSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
