Fire Toast

Every time that we make toast in our kitchen, either it is underdone, or burnt to a cinder. I keep twiddling the timer setting on the toaster, up and down, but different breads need different times and so I never get the perfect toast.

But what I have found is that if I put the timer on max, "don't care if you burn", then at about the right moment that the toast is how I like it the fire/smoke alarm in the hall goes off. It seems very sensitive and goes off as well when I cook bacon...

So that made me think. Why not do away with the timer in the toaster and put a fire alarm in instead?

Now isn't that a brilliant idea? Get to it toast makers.
