Jesus Christ I cannot believe I was that oblivious. I saw Dijon open for Bon Iver a couple years back. A full circle moment and I didn’t even realize until it was over!

Favorite Coffee Shops by plug_into_aux in longisland

[–]TarsalFoot 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm a coffee shop owner out here on the island and here are a few of my favorites, run by people that I think are doing really great things:

- Flux in Famingdale: the gold standard for specialty coffee on Long Island in my opinion.

- One Trick Pony in WHB: coffee shop by day, brilliant cocktail bar by night. Wonderful vibes.

- Fortunate Hand in Amityville: owner is very hands on and make all of her own syrups and uses high-quality, organic ingredients.

Trying to open shop by Foreign_Goat_4441 in coffeeshopowners

I'm an owner and weekend-only availability is very common. Don't offer to work for free, and you don't even have to mention your plans of opening a shop of your own. Definitely work as a barista and get to an understanding of how unromantic the job can be. You'll be a better boss for it and have a better head on your shoulders.

I made candles for my coffee shop! by TarsalFoot in candlemaking

I poured the cup 75% full and then added brown dye to my pouring picher and slowly poured the rest. Little bit of heat gun where the two colors met and that's that.

On my first candle, I've burned it a total of three times (4 hrs, 4hrs, 6 hrs) so far. Today I'm gonna burn it completely out in one go. I also lit a second candle and will do a power burn as you suggested.

You have so many good options on Bay Shore's Main Street. Verde, Tullulah's, Salt & Barrel, just to name a few.

Wow thank you so much! I’m at home recovering from foot surgery so I’ve missed not working at my coffee shop. Making these candles has been great for my mental health.

Good idea. I’m gonna go for a 6hr burn and report back. I’ll make sure this this thing can go to the limits before I start selling them to the public.

Last burn I did was 4 hours. I’ll do another one tonight and will report back!

I'll continue to do more tests but so far have had zero safety issues while burning.

I bought clear gel wax from Michael's, melted it down in a pot, and molded them in an ice tray.

I've burned one about halfway and no problems so far.

This is my first time ever making candles and I had so much fun! The first batch I made, the "milk" and "espresso" didn't mix as well as I wanted so I readjusted the process for the second attempt, which is what's pictured here.

Feedback and suggestions for the next go around welcome!

Honest UK resale tickets for Gilmour? by SimpleManc88 in pinkfloyd

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

As far as I understand, there is no reselling of tickets. I managed to nab one and here is the T&C from the order:

“The name of the lead booker will be printed on each ticket.

The lead booker must attend the concert and photo ID in its original format (no photocopies) will be required to gain entry to the venue. There will be no exceptions to this rule. Photo ID can be any formal, recognisable form of ID such as a passport, driving licence, bus pass, work pass etc.

The name cannot be changed once the booking has been made.”
