    The garage fridge. It’s where you keep soda, beer, and frozen junk food.

    A favorite part of mountain lake camping is finding a creek to chill your packed warm beers in. 30° outside but they’re icy and cold by the time you’ve set up camp and started a fire. Not a European but I used Celsius, so I hope you don’t mind.

    Edit: WARNING: make sure to keep the lids out of the water so you don’t accidentally get sick

    Older houses here in Sweden have/had a cool (but not cold) well ventilated pantry to store fruit and root vegetables and pickled/preserved pantry items that fare better out of the fridge or room temperature. It used to be called “sval” or “svalskåp”, with temperatures pretty much like a wine cooler. I want one of those. I don’t want a wine cooler, however.
