Why was this blazing pizza oven being towed through Boston tunnel traffic?

Wood-fired pizza caterer Fired Up said it received a “flood” of messages after video of its lit oven going through a Boston tunnel was shared online. Like Forrest Gump’s box of chocolates, Boston’s downtown tunnels remain a master class in the unusual and unexpected. Traffic is a given, but recent years have also brought luggage-wielding walkers, unruly teens on bikes, and even an adorably turned-around pup.

Winter gas rates for many in Mass. hold steady — a rare reprieve as other costs rise

On a gray November morning in Worcester, the gas bill that lands in a mailbox can feel like a verdict. Heat is not a luxury in New England. It is the difference between a livable kitchen and a room a family abandons after dinner. This year, for many households, that verdict is unusually calm. Massachusetts gas rates for the winter period are holding steady for a large share of customers, a pause that arrives while groceries, insurance, and rent keep climbing. Regulators approved supply prices that do not jump the way they did in the hardest winters of the early 2020s. The relief is real. It is also narrow, and it does not rewrite the longer story of what it costs to stay warm north of Hartford and south of the Canadian border.
