Are you starting your Spring Clean? Be sure to set aside any items you would like to sell at the Faith Landing Community Yard Sale coming this June. Space is limited, so be sure to call the leasing office and reserve your space soon. Do you have a lot of items to throw out? Please don’t throw them in the regular dumpsters. Furniture and larger items take up so much space and if left in front or near the dumpsters, will not be taken by the trash collection. We will have a special dumpster specifically for Spring Cleanout available for our residents from May 27th to June 10th.

EARTH DAY APRIL 22, 2016 “Here is your country. Cherish these natural wonders, cherish the natural resources, cherish the history and romance as a sacred heritage, for your children and your children’s children. Do not let selfish men or greedy interests skin your country of its beauty, its riches or its romance.”

— Theodore Roosevelt

Easiest Ever Blueberry Cream Cheese Pound Cake This is one of my favorite recipes for a Spring brunch item.

It’s easy and delicious.

Ingredients: 1 (18.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix ¼ cup white sugar 3 eggs 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, room temperature ½ cup vegetable oil 1 tsp. vanilla extract 1 ¼ cups blueberries Directions: 1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease and flour a 10 inch Bundt pan.

2. In a large bowl, stir together cake mix and sugar.

Make a well in the center and pour in eggs, cream cheese, oil and vanilla. Beat on low speed until blended. Scrape bowl and beat for 4 minutes on medium speed. Stir in blueberries. Pour batter into prepared pan.

3. Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely.

STOP THE JUNK MAIL! Did you know that 100 million trees and 28 billion gallons of water were used to produce U.S. mail for just one year? 44% of all U.S. mail is discarded unopened equaling four million tons of waste paper each year with only 32% being recycled? By putting an end to a good amount of the useless junk mail we receive, we are all able to help our environment. But how?  Contact the Direct Marketing Association at www.dmachoice.org.

Through this site you can be removed from many companies mass marketing mailing lists for up to five years.  To stop receiving credit card or other credit related offers , opt out permanently at www.optoutprescreen.com  Another way is to save all of your unwanted mail, and once a month call or email the companies and ask to be removed from their mailing lists. This is the most effective way, but can be more time consuming.
