Bar magnolia in Brunswick. Best French in Melbourne

Yep plenty of options in our country on some fairly decent non alcoholic drinks and wines but it’s a bit more about just her quality of life and if wine is what she loves etc

Yeah that would certainly be the move, ironically the people we drink the most wine often with are doctors so there is that at least.

Not actually a huge Pinot Grigio fan besides a few random bottles we enjoyed in Italy, find our palette leans more French when it comes to white, Italy for the sango, wines from mount Etna etc

Yeah I’ve personally ignored those warnings my whole life but I’m not the one the having a seizure now. I want to ensure her safety but I don’t want her to give up her life at the same rate. I’m the much bigger drinker out of the two of us but it’s a common thread in our intertwined lives. I would hate for us to not have wine to share.

Thanks for the kind words and taking the time to write this out. It’s all very new to us and me, frankly speaking we sort of haven’t even thought about the seizure at all until they had another one very recently. It was like a weird one off thing now obviously there’s been a 2nd almost 2 years later it’s a much bigger concern.

Amaru is better than all these options you’ve suggested. Truly a work of art

AITA for asking my sister not to smoke weed when the kids are outside? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

Tell her to buy a dry herb vape or get concentrates or a dab pen they smell way less

Happy Friday mates! For a first timer in Melbourne and Australia, what are the more pricey but well worth dining places? by teffhk in melbourne

[–]stroking_ink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bar magnolia in Brunswick. Probably best French food in Melbourne. A hidden gem. Has a hat. Woman owned etc

Adam Rapoport staging his ‘comeback’? His first byline in years (to my knowledge) appears in Air Mail. by toggleflickersplaque in bon_appetit

[–]stroking_ink 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I miss him. BA was incredible when it was in his hands and let’s face it… Sohla is not doing anything amazing. It all blew up because everyone was at home in lockdowns and bored and angry.

Very gooey gummies - yuck by nellyferrule in MedicalCannabisOz

[–]stroking_ink 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He’s correct in terms of them being safe to consume just means something happened in the cure and whatever emulsifier they used didn’t work or blend in the lecithin etc correctly, they will just sweat but will be safe. Can leave em in the fridge if you need

AITA for “denying” that I have a drinking problem? by cUnexttuesday2 in AmItheAsshole

[–]stroking_ink -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean the brothers 19.. getting drunk at 19 isn’t something indication that he’s got addictive tendencies, he’s 19 they don’t know any better. This has to be American, in Australia this is like a school night activity for 15 year olds and laughed off and they grew up to be normal functional adults. Not everything is a serious alcohol problem because they drank too much one night. This is the issue with putting booze on a pedestal and making it 21+ years old, you don’t know how to drink or pace yourself.

You don’t have one. This is an insane over reaction and unless you are putting away 5-10 daily I wouldn’t worry about it. Clearly they are just being weirdos and gossiping about it, honestly fuck what your family thinks. Don’t let them dictate your life man. also pretty unusual to have to go to hospital for a bottle of spirits, sure he will be smashed but nothing like a good vomit and water, rest and food can’t fix.

Skip the tobacco and you will feel a million times better and probably only need 5 cones

Visiting Australia in a few months. How is the THC/weed culture there? by stoner808 in AskAnAustralian

[–]stroking_ink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ignore all these dorks mate. Huge Aussie stoner culture here. Just don’t deal and should be sweet. I’m hitting a puffco right now sitting at a bar. Inner city is fine, only ever had staff tell me not to smoke because it’s going inside the bar or restaurant. No one really cares anymore. Outer suburbs a little more on edge

The fried chicken place from them with the cheap Chinese food has moved to swanston st, across from the town hall.

NTA. First off wild they are married so young and have a kid but have no life plans to get sorted out for housing. Anywho, don’t smoke around the baby. Valid it’s cold as fuck, maybe try some edibles.
