As I was about to light my Shabbat Candles my husband plugged in the
platta, electric heating plate full of Shabbat food, and the lights all went out. I looked out the window and said:
"This is just us. Other people have electricity. Check the fuse box."
So we pulled up the switch and this time I tried plugging the
platta into the other outlet by the stove. Again, the electricity went. I handed him the cable and said:
"Run next door to Moshe. He's a caterer. No doubt he has an extra cable or platta to lend us."
A minute later my husband came back with a big black
platta with a cord.
"He said that nowadays, there aren't detachable cables."
So, my husband quickly transferred everything to the borrowed
platta, plugged it in and we had a wonderful pre-Purim Shabbat. BARUCH HASHEM, AND THANKS TO WONDERFUL NEIGHBORS!
