During Hurricane Milton, I was in task mode, including fueling our vehicles, taking out cash, grocery shopping, rearranging outdoor furniture, and preparing meals. My French bulldog, Zoey, provided valuable assistance. Shortly before landfall, I prepared a chicken and vegetable stir-fry, complemented by a delightful white Italian wine. The pairing proved to be exceptionally harmonious and helped distract us from the high winds, heavy rain and flickering lights.
