I left Hawaii about 4 years ago and now my best friend is there now that I am gone so we missed each other. Oh the joys of military life! Now you are coming to where I am at! Maybe we can have coffee when you get here. I was having Hawaii fever today and made curry beef stew with steamed rice like what I used to eat at L&L when I was there.

My suggestions:
1. Don’t go shopping with your friend if you find it unenjoyable without buying stuff. In Korea, people try to buy last minute things like furniture, fake goods, frame their photos/art, and things that are unique to a certain location. If you are moving to a new place that has stuff with Targets, Ross, Walmart, etc. who cares about shopping because they will have the same stuff. I completely agree with not buying stuff until you get to your new place.
2. Get rid of things you didn’t use the last season or haven’t worn in a year.
3. We are moving in March and we started dwindling our food stuffs in early December. My friends always donate so much stuff to me when they move. I am not a believer in wasting money on stuff I’m not going to use so I have had to revert to “If it’s not in the pantry/fridge then we are not going to eat it” with the exception of the regs like milk, cheese, eggs, etc. It’s actually pretty easy. I will donate nothing except alcohol and frozen fruit!
