Avocado Lovers, Meet Your Dream Job

Oct 31, 2017

If one of your hobbies includes eating avocados in creative ways (i.e. toasts, smoothies, literally anywhere else), you might want to dust off your resume. Good Fat, an Australian avocado restaurant popup, is seeking a Head of Avo Control to taste test the goods ahead of their November 2 opening in Sydney — and it sounds like a creamy green dream come true.

Roles and responsibilities include sampling each and every one of the restaurant’s 20 or so avo-centric dishes, including (obvi) avocado toast, smoothie bowls, and avocado ice cream.

But if you think your love for the creamy fruit is enough to put you in the running for the gig, think again. As per the job description, candidates must have a “proven knowledge of how to check avocado ripeness by gently pressing the sweet spot” as well as “a minimum two years experience in smashing avocados on toast or similar.”

While we’re pretty sure even the most casual of avocado-aficionados can attest to having said skills, we’re still wondering how anyone would *actually* prove their smashing and squeezing abilities. After all, this is the first time we’ve heard of such an avo-centric job. Perhaps a curated portfolio of your weekend Insta-toast posts would suffice?

Speaking of Insta posts, the job also requires promoting the popup via social media using the hastag #OzAvoGoodFat. The salary (in case you’re still seriously considering the gig) is as many avocados as your heart — or stomach — desires, plus unlimited items from the Good Fat menu. While the gig doesn’t pay cold, hard cash, is there anything else you’d rather spend your money on anyway?

If you’re not picked for the gig, but are in the Sydney area (slash willing to travel for avocados!), you can still bask in avocado glory by visiting Good Fat through the entire month of November. All dishes will be priced under $20 AUD, which is totally a reason to sample every possible thing on the menu. For those of us stuck elsewhere this upcoming month, let’s just hope we get some more avocado restaurants around the world ASAP. Until then, we’ll be brushing up on our mashing skills.

Florence Pugh Has A New Boyfriend, And No It's Not Andrew Garfield

We can't wait to see Florence Pugh's performance tug at our heartstrings in We Live In Time — especially given all the talk about how spicy her chemistry is with Andrew Garfield. However, all this talk about chemistry has us wondering...who IS Florence dating these days, if not Andrew?

As of late, it seems like Florence is linked to fellow actor, Finn Cole. Here's everything we know so far about the alleged new couple!

Who has Florence Pugh dated before?

Jeff Spicer/Getty Images

Prior to now, Florence dated Zach Braff and Charlie Gooch before those relationships ultimately ended. She recently spoke to British Vogue about how much "bullying" impacted her relationship with Zach, acknowledging that during the three years they were together were "quite private" for a while. She said, "I think any relationship in this limelight is going to be stressed.”

Now all that matters is the rumored bond she's building with Finn.

A Quick Timeline Of Florence Pugh And Finn Cole's Relationship

2017 — Fans Take Notice Of Florence And Finn's Friendship

Florence and Pugh have known each other for a while, but attentive fans noticed the actress began frequently supporting whatever Finn shared on Instagram beginning in 2017. Any post — from personal updates to his time on Peaky Blinders — received a like from Florence (via Cosmopolitan).

September 3, 2024 — Florence And Finn Attend The Premiere Of The Perfect Couple In London

The two showed up to the East London premiere of The Perfect Couple, and were even seen at the party following the event (via The Sun). They apparently were comfortable in each other's as they seemed to be "having a great time." At the same time, a source noticed the pair seemed to be intentional about not being "pictured or seen" together. Prior to this, Florence and Finn were seen having a good time at the Glastonbury Festival (via Daily Mail).

September 18, 2024 — Florence Cheekily Admits She's Seeing Someone New

Finn Cole's kept quiet about anything pertaining his relationship status, but Florence has offered a unique insight into hers without naming who she's dating. "We are figuring what we actually are. And I think for the first time, I’m not allowing myself to go on a roller-coaster," she said (via British Vogue).

Admitting she's prone to falling head over heels in love, the actress further explained her reasoning for taking things slow. "I’m allowing myself to take time to let something evolve and let it be completely real to its core, as opposed to racing into that," she said.

What else has Florence Pugh starred in?

Florence Pugh has starred in a few groundbreaking films that have aided in her burgeoning acting career. She stunned audiences with her roles as Dani in Midsommar, Amy March in Little Women, Yelena Belova in Black Widow, Alice in Don't Worry Darling, Jean Tatlock Oppenheimer, and as Princess Irulan in Dune 2.

Where else have we seen Finn Cole?

In addition to starring in Peaky Blinders as Michael Grey, Finn Cole is also known for Animal Kingdom as Joshua 'J' Cody, Slaughterhouse Rulez as Don Wallace, and F9: The Fast Saga as Young Jakob.

Clearly Florence Pugh isn't ready to spill the beans about her rumored new boyfriend Finn Cole just yet, and that's okay! We'll be here waiting for the joyous day she decides to let everyone in that part of her world again.

How To Build A Local Community When You’re A Digital Creator

Verizon

verizon

In our Take 5 series, sponsored by Verizon, we ask women in business about unexpected challenges, their inspirations, recent wins, and how the free Verizon Small Business Digital Ready Program has helped propel their business forward. Here, we meet Rita Suzanne, a marketing strategist for health and wellness businesses who learned to network, connect with other entrepreneurs, and build her business online and IRL.

What's an unexpected business challenge that you've had to face and how did you overcome it?

The hardest thing for me was my sister passed away and I ended up taking custody of my nieces. I ended up being a single mom of four kids. This is the thing that transitioned my whole entire life. I stopped doing web design and started my podcast Mom Owned and Operated. I wanted to reconnect with other moms and figure out how they were able to run their businesses and raise a family and take care of themselves because I wasn't able to do all three at the same time. Through that journey, I realized that I really needed to connect with other people and how important it was for my business. It helped me to create that community that I was yearning for that I didn't realize that I needed.

What's a recent small win for your business?

For me, the win was just pivoting back to something that I actually wanted to do. Also, I’ve started to say no to things that I no longer want to do.

Who is a woman in business that you look up to and why?

I have always admired and looked up to Amy Porterfield [author of Two Weeks Notice]. I listened to her all the time when I was starting out. I think that she's amazing and I love her stuff. She just seems like a very genuine person.

Is there a resource that has made an impact on you as an entrepreneur?

I listen to a lot of audio books. One of my favorites that has been huge for me is You Are A Badass by Jen Sincero. I was told when I first started my business, by a friend who was a business coach, that I have a mindset problem. Ten years ago, I had no idea even what “mindset” was. Sincero’s book helped me to see what she meant by “mindset” and helped me adjust that mindset and fix some of the things that I didn't realize were broken.

How has the Verizon Small Business Digital Ready Program helped propel your business forward?

There are a lot of things that I have loved about it. There are local networking and training opportunities, and that has been great, and the online training is very valuable. It's a great resource. I find that marketing needs a three-tiered approach, meaning you need to network it locally, socially, and then also have a very comprehensive online approach to your marketing. One of the Verizon Small Business trainings that I took was all about taking advantage of your local resources. I found that to be extremely valuable because often people think they need to just focus on social media. I don't think that people focus enough on their local community.

Spending any major holiday together is a pretty big deal, which is why I was floored when Taylor Swift showed up to the Chiefs' Christmas Day game.

Artichoke Olive Naan Pizza

The Last Food Blog

If you're vegetarian but miss the flavor kick of pepperoni, try loading your naan pizza with bold toppings like olives, pesto, red pepper flakes, and grilled artichokes. Toasted pine nuts, chopped parsley, and a spritz of lemon juice finish the whole thing off.

What Should I Make For

Blue cheese has a strong flavor that can overwhelm other ingredients, but it’s well met here by sweet figs and peppery arugula. A drizzle of vinaigrette on top makes every last bite pop.

Roasting cherry tomatoes amplifies their flavor. They’re the star of this pizza, joined by spinach, milky mozzarella, and garlic.

Fresh tomatoes, basil, and fresh mozzarella top these pizzas. A thin layer of tomato sauce keeps the naan base from drying out, and a balsamic drizzle ties all of the flavors together.

Roasted Veggie Naan Pizza

The Rustic Foodie

We can’t think of a better way to get in our daily veggies than roasting them and using them to top a naan pizza. Well, a little mozzarella doesn’t hurt either.

Bowl of Delicious

No sauce? No problem! Make a white pizza that showcases the beauty of a simple sautéed vegetable topping.

Mini Cuban Naan Pizzas

Show Me The Yummy
