We knew our kitchen would be out of service for two or three months. Each week I cooked extra food to put into the freezer. I bought three pound packages of hamburger once a week and fried it up with bell peppers and onion. I froze bags of white rice and extra chili and casseroles. We planned to plug the fridge in with an extension cord and move the microwave and toaster oven to the porch. I bought an electric skillet at a garage sale and stocked up on paper plates, plastic service-ware and cups. As I packed up our stuff, I kept the strainers, microwave dishes and glass measuring cups. We are currently on day 10 and it has been the easiest camping I've ever done. We are lucky to have a nice space on our porch for the table and are washing dishes in the main floor bathroom sink.
