.My fridge is stocked and as long as the power stays on things will be OK.
If it’s snowing and the power goes out, I’ll bet you can figure out a way to keep things cool. ;)

It’s cold enugh here in Maine this week.

Just put some milk jugs full of water outside. Let them freeze. When you lose power, bring one in at stick it the fridge. When it thaw, replace it and put the thawed one back outside.

This is not our first rodeo.

If you have the room, just leave the water jugs in your freezer all the time.

Another trick, if you are going to be away for a while and are worried about a power outage ruining your food -

freeze a half full pint bottle of water, then turn it upside down in your freezer. If the power goes out for long enough for your stuff to thaw, the water in the bottle will run to the “top”, and even if it refreezes, you have an indicator that your food thawed and refroze.
