What to buy for the kitchen furnishings?
Hello!
I'm about to close on my first MTR and I'm wondering - should I buy everything I'd buy for a STR? Do I need to get them all the small stuff for the kitchen? (colander, ice trays, tea kettle, dish towels, knife set, etc?)
Second, do I need to get them basic cooking items? (salt and pepper, cooking spray, coffee and tea grounds, etc?)
Secondary question, if yes, is there anything I DON'T need for MTR that you would need for STRs? Just curious
Thanks for any/all help :)

I stay in my share of STR and MTR all over the place! I am in the Tampa Florida area and have a small family. We like to cook too, so, we like it when you have all of the amenities to be able to do that. Also, provide soap, sponges and cleaning supplies.
