I haven't installed a new battery as yet and I have to say I am really enjoying cooking without the accompanying noise.<br /><br />I wonder if our smoke alarms have anything to do with the phrase..."Dinner is ready when the smoke alarm goes off." :)Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09409645438732452330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6292915201767940326.post-8568566859508728072016-08-25T01:15:07.611-05:002016-08-25T01:15:07.611-05:00Vicki,

I hate that thing because it alerted everyone that I was burning something else.<br />LindaPractical Parsimonyhttp://www.practical-parsimony.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6292915201767940326.post-10138391689065756072016-08-23T01:25:01.525-05:002016-08-23T01:25:01.525-05:00Linda...I keep a broom nearby.

The broom handle is for reaching the button on the bottom of the alarm to shut it off. But that doesn't help when I need to change a battery. Then someone has to climb up and take care of the problem. Since I didn't have a battery, the darned thing had to be taken down and buried somewhere to stifle the noise until I can install the new battery. I suppose I could have just whacked it to pieces, but then I would have to buy a new one. I really hate that smoke alarm!!Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09409645438732452330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6292915201767940326.post-88276078424295473482016-08-23T01:01:30.648-05:002016-08-23T01:01:30.648-05:00Got a broom and a good aim?Got a broom and a good aim?Practical Parsimonyhttp://www.practical-parsimony.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6292915201767940326.post-70273455084464866772016-08-22T13:16:46.345-05:002016-08-22T13:16:46.345-05:00BW...Once that infernal chirping went away I was a...BW...Once that infernal chirping went away I was able to snooze for a while.
