Really, all you need to worry about is bottled water (1 gal per day you expect to be stranded, if at all), food that doesn't need electricity (pop tarts, fruit, etc), candles, and batteries. Make sure you've got girly hygeine products, I suppose.
Everything else is pretty much either extreme-isolation preparedness, or just overkill. if you want to put plywood over the windows, go with 3/4", or at least 5/8" stuff, and use screws (rather than nails), because that makes taking it down easier.
