My friend's basement started flooding last week and they still haven't found the problem. Then their furnace stopped working and there was a carbon monoxide build-up. They think it was starting to make her sick. They had older detectors that obviously weren't working. Her husband told us we should likely be changing them every 3 years or so and also that the newer ones detect a wider range of gases. So we are going to get some new ones, ours are OLD. How old are your carbon monoxide detectors? Another friend just mentioned to me that she has a detector near the furnace as well as in other parts of the house.
I just received this recipe for a Salmon Vegetable Chowder, it looks healthy and delicious. The regular seafood chowder recipes are usually quite rich.
Or how about some Yogurt strawberry jam - jam muffins?

Oh, that soup sounds perfect for these crazy cold winter nights. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI have to say I am fanatical about detectors for O2 and fire. We have multipule O2 detectors and we have the dual smoke detectors. You can never be too safe when it comes to your family.
ReplyDeleteMy heart goes out to your friend and her basement, last year we had the flood and had to gut the basement, what a mess. I hope they figure it out soon
I'm glad I don't have to worry too much about carbon monoxide poisoning here since our windows are almost always opened.
ReplyDeleteI;m glad your freinds figured out the CO issue--it not only yes can make you sick but kill you to!
ReplyDeleteThinking of you and hoping your xmas time is going well. Enjoy those delicious meals!
Japra, I made the chowder in half an hour and it was delicious, you have to try it.
ReplyDeleteSoccerMom, you had to gut your basement? Too stressful.
Kay, nothing like fresh air, lucky you.
Mmm I hope your xmas is going well too, thanks for the good wishes
