Seems that I bought a "kitchen" smoke alarm a few years ago that had a

disabling a smoke alarm for something like ten minutes with negligible
effect on battery life? Thanks.


Maybe now's the time to invest in that backyard propane barbecue
grill...

That's where a majority of our cooking is done from just about now
until November.

Then it's too cold (~65°F) to stand out there ;-)

I just cooked some steaks for lunch on the outdoor BBQ yesterday. It's
around about freezing, so popping out in a short-sleeved shirt isn't
an issue. ;-)

Freezing, yesterday, during lunch? What part of the country are you
in?

It's in the high 60s/low 70s out here in Sacramento right about now.
I'd better go skiing in the Sierra mountains soon before all the good
snow is gone...
