I've always loved it when the electricity goes out. As a kid up in New England we'd lose power for up to 5 or 6 days. As long as we had enough wood and cellar filled with enough food, it made for a good time. After a big snowstorm, we'd get to take a sled up to store to pick up stuff. The roads were closed to vehicles and everyone would be out and about in the beaty and stillness.

Even know, though we only lose it for a day or two, we always take it as an adventure. Do puzzles, go sledding, play board games etc. Reminds me of simplier days!
