Ways to keep warm when the power goes out (and thus the house can't be heated) when you have an electric oven?

A snowstorm (25 inches) in the DC area knocked out our power for 2 days. We (2 adults, one kid, one dog, one cat) don’t have a fireplace either, so our house got steadily colder until we camped out at a neighbor’s house. She kept the main floor around 55 degrees (F) by keeping the gas stove going full blast. By the time the electricity was restored and we went back home, it was about 35 degrees (F) in our house.

We don’t have a generator and can’t afford what’s available right now (0 minimum). We will be making a hotel reservation just in case the power goes out again.

Thanks for any ideas on how to keep warm and safe should the power go out again, as another 10-20 inches are expected tomorrow night.

How to keep food from burning on gas stove?

I have a very small gas stove (24-26 inches wide). The grates are very close to the flame. I burn everything! I cooked sauce tonight, and I had the flame as low as I could get it before it went out. (the flame was the size of a baby pea…even smaller…) It still burned and stuck to the bottom and this was only after 15 min! I also cannot use the flame on high, becuase it will start to melt the handle of my small saucepans. Granted, water boils in less than 2 minutes……hahahahaa… The oven and broiler are great, tho.

Is this a gas hook up for a gas stove?

I have an electric stove now and want to get a gas stove. I moved my electric stove and underneath was a metal pipe sticking out of the floor. Is this a gas hook up?
If this is the gas hook up should there be any problems hooking the new gas range up since I’ve always had an electric stove at this place??The place that I’m getting the new range from does the installation, I just don’t want any surprises!

Is it a fire hazard to install a gas pipe (even with shut-off valve) behind my existing electric stove?

Any idea how much it would cost to switch from gas stove to an electric one?

I currently have a gas stove. I don’t like having a gas stove, it makes me uneasy. Weird, I know, but I am always worried that it is leaking or is going to leak. Assuming I don’t already have a 220v plug or whatever to run it to, how much might it cost to set it up? Not including the new electric stove I’d have to buy- purely just the work to set it up.

My little stovetop espresso maker falls through the grate of the new stove?

I just moved to a new place, and my stovetop espresso maker doesn’t fit the new gas stove — the grate is too large for the espresso maker to balance over the flame.

I’ve seen a solution in Germany, a metal insert or adapter that fits over center of the existing grate to make it smaller.

Has anyone seen anything like that for sale, or is there some other clever solution?
