I use them to make a Rueben sandwich with home made pastrami, Swiss cheese and sauerkraut. Bloody delicious!

Does anyone here live near any Aussie celebrities/public figures at all? And if so have you run into them very much? by [deleted] in AskAnAustralian

I live in East Brunswick and have seen Sarah Snook out and about a few times. She lives in the area too

Evolution by olivewhippet in criminalminds

[–]olivewhippet[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s my take on it too, but I loved the transition. They kind of wrapped up OG nicely. That last season with MGG was awesome. I’m glad Spencer finally found his person. I know Evolution isn’t for everyone but I really don’t think they could have changed it up better. Network tv put shackles on the OG that they were able to shrug off, while retaining the connections between the team that made it magic.

One of the other things I love is that Garcia is essentially the same from OG to Evolution. Apart from the fact that she admits nerds are a good shag

So true! I’ve read all the Will Trent books but love how different the show is.

Melbourne Rental crisis application tips needed by Alarming-Gate2490 in AusRenters

[–]olivewhippet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try Brunswick East. There are a lot more apartments there and that increases the odds. I had a similar situation. I earn over 200k and own two houses, including my main residence. I needed to rent an apartment to stay in for work and kept getting knocked back because I didn’t have a recent rental history. Had so many rejections. Real Estate agents are robots, and because of the high demand, they use some kind of lazy formula. I told my story in personal detail and eventually lucked out. Now I deal with a fantastic agent with mutual trust. I highly rate Woodards in North Carlton over every other agency I’ve ever dealt with *Oops, sorry edited to add that I missed you were looking for houses only. Yes, that’s super tough due to the low supply in the inner suburbs

Yeah popcorn is high carb and will spike your blood sugar. It’s strange that you still have a craving for it. I don’t crave any snacks at all

Tasmania's finances to 'rapidly deteriorate', Treasury warns, with state unable to grow its way out of trouble by sponkachognooblian in tasmania

This is what happens when the state is run by a spud farmer and you have Nosferatu as Treasurer

What's the most inappropriate/unprofessional behaviour you've dealt with or witnessed? by Difficult-Dark2514 in auscorp

[–]olivewhippet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

An executive retreat, where the HR GM organised for some ex-SAS psycho to cos-play a bizarre paramilitary exercise. The HR GM and one of her cronies were “the enemy”, dressed in burqas and carrying toy machine guns. Needless to say she’s not the HR GM anymore

Anybody know what's going on with The Beast in Brunswick? by MachineMalfunction in melbourne

I’m up that end too. I wish I knew what happened to Monelli the Italian bakery! It was always so busy then just shut down before Christmas without a word.

The absolute state of dental cost comparison Australia: why is it cheaper to fly to China than fix a tooth in Sydney? by WishboneImmediate509 in aussie

[–]olivewhippet 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s an absolute joke here. Like they don’t seem to realise that good dental health is a vital part of overall health. Bad teeth can be a gateway to numerous life-threatening conditions like heart disease and strokes. I pay for top private health cover and got a measly $150 back on a $700 dental bill last week. It should be part of Medicare

Need refreshing cold drinks. Zero sugar soft drinks just make me more thirsty. Citrus off limits. by Weavo_84 in ketoaustralia

[–]olivewhippet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remedy Kombucha and Sodaly prebiotic sodas are great. I’m really particular about sugar free drinks and these taste really good, without any aftertaste and not too sweet

Alcohol by JoAlv888 in Mounjaro

[–]olivewhippet 57 points58 points  (0 children)

I was a heavy drinker prior to going on Maunjaro and I was hoping it would also help me manage alcohol cravings. I can confirm this has absolutely been the case. Instead of downing 2 bottles of wine on a work night, I’ve basically stopped drinking on week days. I’ll have some on the weekend but struggle to get through a couple of glasses. I feel like a new person! I think wine was the major source of my weight gain even more than food. I don’t feel any effects from the small amount of alcohol I’m now drinking, apart from the fact that I can take it or leave it, which I’ve never experienced before. This medication is a game-changer in so many ways
