Move in is the next few weeks. I’ve lived on my “own” (roommate I never interacted with) for a couple months my last semester of college, but that was a temporary setup whereas I’m hopefully moving out for good this time.

Bear in mind that the place has window/wall A/C and electric heating.

Things I’m already considering:

  • Drain guard
  • Bidet
  • Cold brew coffee maker
  • Rice cooker
  • Space heater? I’d like to keep the temp largely down during the winter to save money while warming up the part of the place I’m in
  • Key for washer/dryer

Things I already have:

  • Most furniture
  • Air fryer
  • Seltzer water thingy
  • Meal prep containers

General advice is also welcome!

    Herbal teas are probably less common than stuff like English Breakfast tea over here, tbh. I live in the southeast, so the most common tea consumption is heavily sweetened iced tea. The old school way of preparing it involves placing the tea in a well-cleaned gallon container and leaving it to steep in the sun for the better part of a hot afternoon.

    I bet we sound like a bunch of cave people lmao.

      That’s wild. Yeah. I don’t know, not even cave. Cave people were the OG leafy tea drinkers. You’re homo-americanus, dwellers of the richest country in the world. A country born with a disavowal of all things natural and native. I am always shocked at the amount of premade stuff and sugar that goes into American recipes.
