So I woke up to no power and had to take my shower by candle - light , which is n't as romantic as it sounds . Though it did bring back memories of my Laura Ingalls Wilder days as a child when I used to run around the house wearing a prairie dress and bonnet . Yeah , unfortunately , that 's a true story . But do n't worry , this story has a happy ending .

Question: Why is the narrator thinking of Laura Ingalls Wilder ?
Things are being done by candle light .
