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=B0F) 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...


Not only freezing, but windy, and snow blowing. But is it raining in Sacramento?
