Toast.
My grandson and I meet each week after his day at school. We make great toast, or we did. Each time the smoke alarm goes off no matter how careful we are. However, rushing to quieten the alarm is no fun. Toast with strawberry jam, it doesn’t get any better than that.

This is the first time I have ever seen the word “quieten.” I had to Google it and learned that it’s primarily British. We Americans would more likely use the verb “quite,” as in “…to quiet the alarm is no fun.” It’s good to learn new word usages, right?
Mr Fandango life is a never ending learning opportunity and yes one of the things I love about blog land is coming across new words. Though if you look on my blog in the next few weeks you’ll find a nonsense word that I run through Tale Weavers and that’s a lot of fun seeing what people come up with with that task.
Toast is a great comfort food 🙂 The smoke alarms in my apartment are ridiculously sensitive–no matter how careful I am, making toast, it usually shrieks!
Must be the same brand as the one’s in my Grandson’s place, mine you need a raging fire under to set them off…lol
I guess there’s no middle ground 🙂
What irritated us was that we didn’t burn the toast and it still went off.
I know exactly! When I was hollering about this issue with my neighbor, he said, “well how Dark do you need your toast?” I replied,”I’d like it to have SOME color–toast is not supposed to be beige!”
lol…exactly..
🙂 🙂
Toast is the best… since I have been on this diet I have craved hot buttered toast with Strawberry jam!
Sorry I may not be doing you favours today.
It’s one of those prompts… I am being reminded of toast frequently… thanks Sacha! 😀
