@Denise – make sure to bring all the silverware. I know it sounds stupid, but when we moved this spring, we brought a few pots/pans and some staples (pasta, cereal, etc). The first morning we realized all the spoons were with the moving company – we had forks and knives, but they weren’t that useful.
