Made huge pot of pork & beef chili (cooked dried beans in crock pot) plus vegan version… All to share w friends & family who don’t have power.
We luckily never really lost it (flickered many times, most for 2 minutes). So, I’ve opened up my small-one bathroom house to all I know. I’ve had people shower and bathe, do laundry, sleep over, enjoy a hot coffee/tea, eat a meal or two and recharge in many ways. It’s nice for us to be in a position to reciprocate. Last year we moved into my friend’s home and gave the kids a fabulous Halloween despite the weather/loss of power/trick or treating.
We’re just so lucky. Many have lost so much.
