That sucks. Sure, it probably would have been fine if you were a clothes store or something. But a bakery? 🤨

Good point on the HVAC, it definitely was always smoky in there. To the point that the baked goods tended to take on the smoke flavor.
Still tasted good though
Also, when you guys opened Planet Fitness was there already. But nothing else though… except for Fountain Spa 😂

Best croissants I’ve ever had. I love their almond ones.
Sorry seven stars, but you’ve got to hire that guy to help you fix your almond croissants.

I’m sorry to hear that about the owner of Vanuatu. Has Pastiche gone back to cafe mode? Last time I was in there (not that long ago) they still seemed to be in pandemic mode. Take out only. I missed the cozy cafe feel with the fireplace.

I think it still is. The letter I received has Spring/Summer rate for RI Energy and the new PVD one is still (nominally) lower.

Reply to Cost to convert oil to gas? by EmperorMing101
I second the other comments about looking into an air source heat pump instead of installing a whole new gas fired heating system—there are lots of incentives out there; however, nobody has mentioned a gas conversion burner. It is the perfect solution since it seems you’re just looking to switch fuel types.
11 years ago, we converted our steam boilers to natural gas. I bought these Wayne conversion burners from Johnstone Supply on Niantic Ave. and paid a heating contractor to install it. We pulled permits and the all in cost was about $1000/boiler. WAY CHEAPER than complete replacement!

Umm. Thank you for the update?

Here’s an actual irrelevant comment, for comparison:

An interstate along Nayatt Rd. LMAO. Never stood a chance! It’s super cool that there are some remnants of the second plan. I’ve always wondered what’s up with the stubs at the end of 295 @ 95 and at the end of the Newport Bridge access road in Newport. Thanks for posting!

Just a quick note: yes, you say the system can run off either fuel, but just make sure there isn’t some conversion that is necessary first.
Because propane operates at much higher pressure than natural gas, it uses smaller orifices. Using natural gas with propane orifices results in a weak/inoperable system, using propane with natural gas orifices can result in explosion.

First off, contact your bank ASAP to see if you can put a stop payment on the check. Even though the check was already deposited they might be able to claw back the funds. Tell your bank that she defrauded you.

So your thesis is:

Um okay, thanks for the insight.

Yes! I have no idea what’s going on with their almond croissants! Their regular croissants aren’t like that. 🤔
Have you tried Butterbang?
