One spring, during heavy flooding the power went out, we were told it would be out for 2-3 days. I had invited friends over for dinner. Said friend called the morning of to re-schedule because of the outage, said " no , come anyway, I'll jut used the microwave" . THEY CAME! all 4 of us, Me and the DH, girl friend and her DH all had the same "senior moment" that lasted all afternoon and up to the moment I put the casserole into the microwave! We had salad and crackers and cheese by candlelight. Duh?
