well fine then.....i won't say that word either then.
i can say "anything" but i won't say "......." !
speaking of in the black..hehehe. i just got our power back on after two and a half day's without electricity!
there were storms that came through the area....real bad down in tennesee but mostly downed powerlines around here. lost all my refridge and freezer goods. since i'm all electric i couldn't even cook normally!
i had some cans of sterno....big 2.5 hour cans that i opened up the front of the stove door....put a can on it and used the grate inside...sliding it out to above the can and .....sort-of cooked over an open fire!
made coffee that way too. not the best , but when your needing coffee you do what must be done. i have an old perk pot for making coffee and just fitted a filter in the top of it. it worked.
slow cooked some chicken before it went bad. cooked it with a 1 can and some BBQ sauce and when it was done it just fell off the bones....mmmmmmm!
but milk and alot of open condements were ready for the trash. so i was able to totally clean out the fridge for spring cleaning. and totally defrosted my cube deep freezer that had the pizzas and meat in it. i hated to toss it but better safe than sorry. most of my deer meat is at my dad's in his big deep freezer anyway so i can replentish that. but the pizzas and ham ,sausages and such were all defrosted by the time it was turned back on.
hehehe...."in the black"!
i was using candles and oil lamps for light and sterno for cooking and heating water to wash in. i thought any hour now it was going to be back on.....
