    The power outage in San Mateo was no joke! I lived in Sonoma County for 9 years, but trying to maintain “normalcy” for my foster child was a whole different level of hijinks!

    • Krystal

      I feel your pain about the power outages! I live in Central Florida and we are no stranger to several days long power outages here every time a tropical storm or hurricane comes through! We usually end up grilling everything because it’s the only cooking method we have, but some things are strangely delicious grilled (grilled fried rice, anyone?!)
