I came across a really great tip for freezer power outages; it is great, especially if you have a 2nd home where you store food if you are not always there to know if power has gone out:
For example, if the power goes out for, say, 24 hours, but then comes back on - you may return a week later to a freezer full of food that had been completely defrosted and then refrozen, but you will have no idea and then you cook and eat the food and get very sick.
**Dump a tray of ice cubes into a freezer baggie and keep it in your freezer; that way, if you return and the baggie is one solid block of ice - you know that it melted & refroze and therefore you should throw away the contents of the freezer. (if it's still ice cubes, you know they have never melted down...)
