We lost power for seven days or so following a hurricane a few years ago. Fortunately, after the first few days a friend loaned us a generator. The most difficult challenge was lack of water.

We have those sort of power outages all the time. It’s no big deal. I use the sterno stove to make coffee, and heat up soup or whatever. Several cases of home canned poultry, beef, or pork. Canned meats, Dak Hams, Bacon Bits, tuna, salmon, clams, chili sauce, cheese sauce, alfredo sauce, pork and beans, fruits and veggies etc.

Plenty to eat without cooking. We have two fireplaces, a fire pit, charcoal grill, and two generators, which have come in handy for cooling, heating, and running the freezers and refrigerators when needed. Have used to cook with an electric skillet a few times.
