Things I made this week: dorm edition

South Carolina
2024/2/6 Edited to

... Read moreIn today's college life, making your own food not only saves money but also enhances culinary skills. Many students are embracing the trend of homemade meals, such as butter and jam, which are great ways to use bought ingredients creatively. Homemade butter can add a rich flavor to your dishes, and it’s surprisingly easy to make with just cream and a little patience. Meanwhile, homemade jam allows you to preserve seasonal fruits and reduce waste. Additionally, creating dried parsley is a practical idea for students looking to add freshness to their meals. Herbs can be expensive, so drying them at home can be a cost-effective solution. Furthermore, involve friends in these cooking projects and share the results online to inspire a community of dorm chefs. By sharing your creations and using trending hashtags like #Lemon8DiaryChallenge, you encourage others to embrace homemade culinary arts in their dorms. Cooking together can also be a great way to bond and make lasting memories while living away from home.

When it comes to storage in college, I would recommend getting as much as possible. When you are in a dorm you will most likely only have drawers, closet, and a desk. Having storage it’s important. 🛍 Storage Cart: $39.99 IKEA 🛍 Ottoman: $24.99 Walmart 🛍 Scrunchie Organizer: $9.99 Amazon 🛍
