This morning the ADT HOME security system team came to install a new security system for our home. I contacted them last week to look into getting an alarm system because several houses in the neighborhood have been broken into recently. We have lived in the same house for twenty years and never really had any problems with crime. Whoever this burglar is that has been breaking into really has interesting taste. It is not the usual home burglary where the thieves steal things that are easy to hock on the black market and at pawn shops. This criminal has been breaking into homes and cleaning out the cooking wear. Pots, pans, cooking utensils, anything in the kitchen that you can think of, this person has been stealing. It is the strangest thing. I just can’t imagine what kind of thief just takes kitchen things. Surely it is someone who is trying to get money for the metal, because they aren’t just stealing the copper pots and pans! I’m glad they won’t be breaking into our house, it has taken me a really long time to accumulate everything in my kitchen!
