LOCAL SPOTLIGHT

ENJOYING YOUR BACKYARD THIS WINTER by Kathleen Whitlow

one are the long days of summer and being able to relax outside into the night. With the cold months beginning, we would all love to continue using our outdoor living spaces, comfortably, for leisurely evenings, early morning coffee and weekend gatherings. This is possible by making a few small – or large – tweaks to the space. Outdoor living spaces range from backyards, pavilions and patios to gazebos, decks, pergolas and screened-in porches. Just because the warm months seem to be a distant memory doesn’t mean you can’t still enjoy good times outside through the fall and winter. Here are some ideas on how to prolong the use of these beloved parts of your home.

Turn up the Heat

Enjoying your backyard or outdoor living space in the winter can sometimes be as simple as turning up the heat. If you add heated areas to patios, decks or screened-in porches you can extend their use. Heat sources should be located near seating areas to ensure you and guests are comfortable in the space. Heat source options include outdoor space heat-

ers, an outdoor fireplace or a fire pit for the backyard. You could even go as far as installing heated floors on a patio or heated seats for guests to enjoy.

Indoor Comforts - Outdoors

When entertaining in your outdoor space during the cold months, you want to be sure that you and your guests are as comfortable as possible. Put out some blankets and throw pillows to make your seating area is warm and inviting. Your guests will feel more inclined to continue enjoying their time at your home if they can be warm and cozy. Adding curtains to screened-in porches can also be another indoor comfort that helps warm up the space. Dark colored curtains can help pull in the sunlight and warm the space, as well as act as a safeguard against cold air. An accent rug can also do wonders for making the space that much warmer.

Lighting is Key

Adding the right lighting can help to set the mood for a winter wonderland vibe during an outdoor gathering. One popular way to do this is by stringing sets of lights along different areas of your patio, gazebo or deck. You can also use accent lights to draw attention to the outdoor space’s ambiance. Accent lights can be lamps or lanterns, which also double as a source of heat. Other outdoor lighting options could include pendant lighting, track lighting, wall fixtures and of course, candles.

Get Steamy

Another option to help you enjoy your outdoor living space in the winter is to install a hot tub. What better way to seemingly prolong summer and to stay warm at the same time? When it begins to get cold, hot tubs can be especially enjoyable for a relaxing, warm evening in your backyard or an after-dinner soak with friends on your back deck or patio. Your hot tub should have a good cover to keep out any inclement weather. It may also be a good idea to invest in a towel warmer to keep beside the hot tub with warm towels for guests as they exit the warm water into the cold air.

Weather-Resistant Furniture

Voted #1 Tree Service in Goochland County 2017

If you are going to continue to use furniture and outdoor seating during more inclement months, you must ensure that you have the right type of furniture … and take the right precautions to protect it. Furniture materials that are the most resilient include certain types of wood, including pine and teak, synthetic wicker and metal. Protecting your furniture with covers, protectants and by taking pillows and cushions inside can help prolong the life of your furniture and decor. Also remember that anything water resistant is a good option for your winter weather outdoor furniture.

s more natural disasters fill the headlines, they can serve as a wakeup call to remind us that unforeseen tragedies can occur at any time. From coast to coast, nowhere on the map is immune to the threat of disasters. Wildfires and earthquakes inflict the Western United States, and droughts are common in the Midwest and Southwest. Tornadoes wreak havoc in the Central Plains, with about 500 tornadoes reported each year. The Atlantic and Gulf Coast states are fraught with devastating hurricanes. Blizzards pound the Northern states. Mountainous regions — from the Appalachians to the Rockies to the Pacific Coast — are laden with landslides. Enough gloom and doom! It’s been said that disasters aren’t planned, but you can plan for disasters. There are several practical steps you can take to prepare for the unexpected, and the time to prepare is not during a disaster, but before. According to a FEMA survey, about 60 percent of Americans do not have an emergency strategy implemented. So, what can you do now? First, start by researching the natural disasters that are common in your area. Floods and hurricanes require different precautionary measures than tornados and wild fires. Next, make your home as safe as possible. Twice a year, when you switch your clocks, check electrical outlets and cords for damage, test smoke alarms and change the batteries. In case of power loss, consider purchasing a generator. Create a home escape plan and rehearse it with your family. Designate a safe meeting place for your family to gather if you are separated — a school, a library or a place of worship are good choices. Also, locate your nearest emergency shelter. You’ll want to know where to go in the event that your home is no longer safe. Earthquakes usually occur without warning. At the first sign of a tremor, get to an inside wall, between a heavy doorjamb or under a sturdy table. Be prepared for aftershocks. They can be just as scary as the initial tremor. The National Weather service lists hurricane season from May 15th to Nov. 30, so stay tuned to local news to plan your best course of action. Secure your property as time allows. Cover windows with plywood boards. Move outdoor furniture, planters, trashcans and other items to a garage. Then proceed to the lowest interior room in your house, ideally a closet or bathroom, away from windows. No matter what the disaster, a “Go Bag” is essential in any emergency. A Go Bag is a backpack or dufflebag that includes everything you may need in an evacuation emergency. Items may include a pair of sturdy shoes, a change of clothes, a lightweight rain jacket, flashlight, radio, batteries and even a cell phone. It may also include a first-aid kit with signal whistle, a dust mask, waterproof tape, matches and travel size toiletries. When heeding the local authorities warning to evacuate, make sure you have your Go Bag ready to go. Its contents will keep you comfortable in the hours and days following a disaster. A separate Go Bag for each family member is needed. Once packed, keep all your Go Bags near an exit door so you can grab and go! After a disaster, take a deep breath and evaluate the situation. Try to keep to your daily routine as much as you can. Assess the damage, but don’t dwell on it — loss of material goods may be heartbreaking, but survival depends on clean water, food, clothing and shelter. While disasters can be emotionally jarring, comfort can be found by cherishing life every day and focusing on what really matters! In a separate bag, it is recommended to keep several gallons of water and 3 days of nonperishable, ready-to-eat food per person. (Don’t forget to bring food for pets along with their pet carriers, if possible). Most of the items listed above can be found at sporting goods stores, camping stores and pharmacies. Here’s a list of supplies you may want to keep in your go bag: • Sturdy shoes

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. 2. In a large pot, melt the vegan butter over medium heat. Add the mustard, pepper, and Tabasco sauce and mix until smooth. Whisk in the flour until combined and stir in the nondairy milk. While stirring, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and continue stirring until thickened, about 1 minute. Mix in the Follow Your Heart vegan cheese shreds and stir again until melted and the mixture has thickened further, about 2 minutes. 3. Add the cooked pasta and Cashew Cheese Sauce to the “cheese” mixture and mix well. If desired, add up to ½ cup additional nondairy milk for consistency. 4. Pour the mac and “cheese” into an 8-inch-by-10-inch baking dish and top with the Daiya vegan cheese shreds as well as a sprinkling of panko breadcrumbs and paprika. 5. Bake for 30 minutes or until the “cheese” is bubbling and the top is starting to brown.
