TikTok Didn't Tell Us

• Smoke detectors in campers are/can be super sensitive 
  • Cooking
  • Thinking about cooking
  • Showering
  • Put plastic bag over it when cooking - just remember to take it down!
• One does not “simply” throw a pizza on the blackstone.

Zoomies Tip Jar

• Mopeka tank monitors - if you’re doing anything with propane tanks, get these little monitor things that show you how much is in your tanks. 
  • Great for grills too, even if you’re not a camper: https://amzn.to/42in2rQ

Main Topic

What does cooking and eating meals look like in the camper?

• Cooking 
  • Blackstone Life 
    • VY LOVES IT (mostly)
    • Breakfast hash recipe: https://ericasrecipes.com/griddle-hash-browns/
  • Britt’s scared of the stove/oven
  • Highly sensitive smoke detector
  • Pros and cons of a smaller kitchen
• Eating 
  • We’re not sit at the table people so not having an official table doesnt change anything for us!

Pet Drama Report

• Levi has almost completely chewed up my slipper. This is a new thing. He's got an anxious/excited shoe grab thing.

Random Question of the Week

• If you could have only one “appliance” for warming/cooking meals (ever… not just in the camper), what would you choose? (Air fryer? Oven? Stove top? Microwave? Blackstone? Grill?) 
  • Britt: I’d choose stove top i think. Compact and portable and you can do a variety of things with it and it works with pots and various containers.
  • Vy: Blackstone! Or a stove top. 
    • I do love the Blackstone, but it can be a lot when you have to bring everything in and out. So for overall cooking I do love the blackstone, for practicality or everyday use, i would have to go with a stove top
