Even though we've been living with loadshedding for over a decade, it still surprises many South Africans when the lights go off.
One little girl was still surprised when the TV went off while watching her favourite cartoon show - even after her mother warned her about loadshedding several times before the power went off, LOL.
A video posted by Candice Stanley shows her warning her toddler daughter, Emily, about five times that it was almost time for loadshedding.
The child appeared oblivious to what her mother was saying before the TV turned off as a shocked Emily could be heard saying, "Shedding".

Limpopo woman’s resourceful outdoor oven defies loadshedding
In another story, Briefly News reported that this creative young woman devised a plan when the power outage struck, threatening to interrupt her baking plans.
TikTok user @chima_mosequa uploaded a video of how she baked scones outside due to constant bouts of loadshedding in her area. Undeterred by the absence of electricity, she transformed her outdoor space into an impromptu oven using basic materials at her disposal.
With a fire pit, carefully arranged coals, and a sheet of zinc metal serving as an improvised baking surface, she embarked on a unique cooking adventure.
