About this word search

In a Kiwi kitchen you flick on the jug, not the kettle, wipe down the bench rather than the counter and keep the cereal in the pantry. Tea towels from holiday spots hang on the oven door, and the wooden spoon has stirred more dinners than anyone can count.

The grid is fourteen by fourteen and the words go across, down or diagonally, never backwards. Chopping board is the longest with thirteen letters, measuring cup has twelve and wooden spoon eleven, each written without spaces. Jug and pot are just three letters long and very easy to miss. The J in jug and the Z in freezer appear only once.

Use it while dinner is cooking: the cook calls out a word, and the helper has to find it on the sheet and the real thing in the kitchen.
