This must be the Week of Storms, for us. We came home from work today in a hail storm - first time I’ve been on the road during one of those.

Fortunately, the power was back on when we arrived home, and we can cook the Italian Sausage and Peppers that Husband was in the midst of when the power went out last night!

Glad you got home safely——to hub’s sausage and peppers feast.
