we have a propane bbq in the back yard and a gas stove. they work great when power goes out. a generator can help for other needs. being prepared can make life a little bit more like normal. we also have a bunch of the freeze dried mountain house meals. a sterno type thing to heat the water to pour in or heat water on the stove and we are good. a bunch of canned foods can be heated on the stove as well.

you can make life as simple or complex as you want. if a hurricane is coming, we fill up the bath tub for bathing and using the facilities. bottled water takes care of our drinking needs. easy, no mess, no fuss clean up afterwards. unless the sewers back up. oh well. hotel time.

Back to canned goods going out of date, it’s a “best by” date so don’t toss without opening and checking first.

When Ike came through we lost power for 7 days +/- and had all the neighbors over for a cook out and then found a children’s charity (The Mission of Yahweh) that didn’t lose power and took everything else out of the freezers to them.
