t-home entertaining can be fun and easy when you pick a theme everyone will love. Movies transcend many generations, and can prove the ideal backdrop for a special night under the stars with friends and family. Host a movie night in the backyard. All that’s needed is some equipment (which may be rented or borrowed from someone with access to AV equipment), a movie of choice and some tasty refreshments. A movie can be streamed from a laptop computer with the help of a projector and displayed on a garage wall or even a sheet serving as a screen. Encourage guests to bring their own lawn chairs or set up blankets right on the grass. Popcorn and movies are the perfect pairing. Rent a popcorn machine that can be plugged in right in the backyard, so guests can serve themselves piping-hot popcorn. Or pop plenty of microwave popcorn indoors and package it in paper bags that guests can hold individually. Keep cans or bottles of soft drinks in a cooler filled with ice. Schedule an intermission during the movie so that filmgoers can get up and help themselves to a drink or visit the restroom. Other snacks to have on hand include typical movie theater fare: • nachos and cheese • boxed candies • licorice • cotton candy For those looking to offer a more extensive refreshment spread, finger sandwiches or chicken nuggets and dipping sauces are foods to enjoy. Make sure the movie is rated for all in the viewing audience and in case neighbors with young children are also able to get a peek of the display. External speakers hooked up to the computer can help amplify the sound.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT APPLIANCES Appliances in your home as well as certain behaviors can have a considerable impact on how much energy is consumed. The Energy Information Administration reports that the average home uses approximately 1,000 kilowatt hours (kwh) each month. Kwh is measured by multiplying the number of 1,000 watts of electricity used by the number of hours the device is in use. Every appliance has a different measure of electricity usage. Here are some examples of common appliances in the home and how much energy they consume in one hour, courtesy of Bright Hub: Electric clothes dryer: 6,000 watts Washing machine: 425 watts Refrigerator: 188 watts Dishwasher: 200 watts Central AC: 6,000 watts Window AC: 1,300 watts Flat screen TV: 150 watts LCD TV: 213 watts Vacuum: 1,100 watts Freezer: 273 watts Water heater: 473 watts Toaster oven: 1,200 watts Coffeemaker: 1,200 watts Desktop computer: 95 watts DVD player: 25 watts Cable box: 20 watts Laptop: 50 watts Selecting energy-efficient appliances and using them in a conservative manner can reduce energy usage and the cost of your monthly utility bill. Try to run high-wattage appliances during the evening or early-morning hours when energy rates may be reduced. Also, if the weather will be warm, running these appliances during cooler hours prevents the home from heating up even more -- possibly requiring the additional use of an air conditioner. Unplug appliances when they’re not in use to avoid vampire drain. Many appliances still draw
a small amount of power even when turned off. Also, be sure to properly insulate and position appliances so they can run at the highest level of efficiency. ENERGY AUDIT You can request or hire individuals to conduct an energy audit or home energy assessment. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, the audit will assess how much energy your home consumes and evaluate what measures you can take to make your home more energy efficient. If you prefer to do an energy audit yourself, you can look at a few key areas around the home where there may be air leaks or inefficient uses of energy. First, turn off any combustible appliances, such as water heaters and furnaces. Make sure the windows are closed, then turn on exhaust fans in the bathroom and kitchen to suck the air out of the rooms. Feel around outlets, doors, windows, baseboards, fireplaces, and attic hatches for any apparent leaks. Use a stick of incense to easily see the flow of air in the incense smoke. If any leaks are found, address each one. This generally involves recaulking or sealing around points of entry. The DOE says the potential energy savings from reducing drafts in a home may range from 5 percent to 30 percent per year. ADDITIONAL STEPS There are other steps you can take to make a home more efficient: • Install solar panels to draw power from the sun. • Plant deciduous trees or bushes on the southand west-facing areas of the home. The leaves will shade the home during the summer months and fall off to allow sunshine in during the winter months. • Plant bushes by the front door to act as a wind buffer. • Use skylights to add light and warmth from the sun to the home. • Think about using motion-activated lights in the home. • Install a new programmable thermostat. • Check the insulation in attics and basements and install new if the insulation you currently have is no longer efficient. Save energy and money by making easy adjustments and improvements around your house.
Sealing around windows reduces air leaks and saves you money in the process.
