The PM revealed that she raided the freezer for some fish fingers when she got home last night.

"Finished the day in Auckland at the E Tū campaign launch, and then home (where I'm not ashamed to admit that I raided Neve's stash of fish fingers from the freezer ...)," she wrote on Facebook.

Her busy day saw her go from a business breakfast to community project announcements to a campaign launch.
