REAL ESTATE WEEKLY™ OCTOBER 27, 2011 VOL. 22 NO. 19 7
Get ready for your holiday road trip (StatePoint) It`s almost time to pack the kids and presents into the car and head out to visit family for the holidays. Whether your trip will take you over the river or through the woods, getting to grandmother’s house can mean overcrowded roads, tough driving conditions and many repetitions of “Are we there yet?” A little preparation can help make your holiday car trip safer and more pleasurable. • Keep your little ones protected. Holiday road trips can be dangerous due to slippery conditions and additional motorists on the road. Many of the newest child seats rely on innovative plastic materials for safety features -- three- and five-point harness systems, shock absorbing foam padding, head impact protection and fireresistant upholstery -- that help protect your children on the road. • Fuel-up in advance on gas -- a full tank helps avoid extra stops along the way. And consider installing a cell phone app that geo-locates gas stations with lower gas prices.
car to the holiday table. • Lighter vehicles often are more fuel-efficient. So if your family can fit comfortably, a smaller, lighter car could save on gas money. One reason is that today’s cars employ many design, comfort and safety features made with lightweight plastics, which helps reduce overall vehicle weight to improve fuel economy. Modern automobiles now are made of 50 percent plastics by volume, but only 10 percent by weight. • If you have been considering purchasing a new car, there may be no better time than the holidays. Many dealers offer significant holiday discounts, so this could be a great time to prepare for that upcoming holiday road trip. • Pack healthful road snacks. Consider foods such as cheese sticks, carrots and dried fruits. Buy in bulk and pack individual portions in convenient re-sealable plastic bags and containers. Avoid overly sugary treats that may make it harder for kids to sit still. • Transport food safely. Bring holiday dishes in coolers and containers so you can safely go straight from your kitchen to the
Lightweight plastic coolers are easy to transport and help keep prepared foods cold by trapping cool air inside and keeping out warmer air. Airtight plastic containers help keep individual dishes fresh. • Use space-saving packaging. Packing for a holiday trip can be challenging, so consider using airtight plastic “space saver” bags that prevent wrinkles, keep your clothes fresh and save space – this could even cut down on the number of bulky suitcases that could block the driver’s visibility. • Recycle along the way. When snacking on the road, reuse plastic grocery bags to collect your recyclable plastic bottles, containers, bags and wraps until you can drop them in a recycling bin. For additional tips on car safety, recycling and more, visit www.plasticsmakeitpossible.com. But above all, pack a map or bring a GPS so the kids can answer the question: “are we there yet?” Learning to read a map is a valuable life skill!

Ways to make your holiday party a success (StatePoint) Looking to make a big impression at your holiday party? Think small -- as in small plates that allow you to showcase different colorful dishes and cuisines. With small plates gaining popularity in wine bars and restaurants nationwide, many people are tapping into this trend in home entertaining by getting more creative with their holiday menus and decorations. In short, small details and dishes can make a big impression. Great for the Host A small plate party makes life easier for the host. You don’t have to fret over a sitdown dinner with an appetizer, main course and dessert, and guests can eat whenever they arrive. When using small plates remember that you shouldn’t only prepare one-to-two bite hors d’oeuvres. Each dish should be thought of as a mini course on a small plate, featuring 4-6 bites of food for eating when sitting or standing. Consider different cuisines and colors, like
mozzarella and tomato with basil or Greek stuffed grape leaves and olives, arranged on small plates, such as the Libbey Just Tastings mini dinnerware collection. These days there are even trendy cookbooks devoted solely to miniature appetizers and desserts, such as those from author Robert Zollweg. Both the Just Tastings collection and cookbook line are available at Bed Bath & Beyond. Get creative and serve-up Spanish, French or Asian dishes. Or go familiar with lollipop lamb chops or hamburger sliders. You can even use the same 4-inch plates for appetizers and desserts, supplementing them with small dessert bowls for little portions. Mingling and Sampling This type of party literally allows you to go with the flow. Small plates allow guests to mingle and socialize with everyone, compared to sit-down dinners. Small dishes are also great for guests who want to taste everything but don’t want to appear to be holiday gluttons. Such plates are also perfect for kids who have big eyes but small stomachs.
Great for Presentation When it comes to parties, the visual impact of your food is as important as its taste. This is where small plates shine, as little tastes can have a big impact with their colors, shapes and designs. Small decorating details also matter. So add a little cranberry or holly to each plate as garnish. Or use wire ribbon throughout your party space on doorknobs, banisters, even to tie napkins. Creating great tables truly welcomes guests. Make sure to coordinate tablecloths, napkins, candleholders and centerpieces. You can find a colorful assortment of each online at www.bedbathandbeyond.com. Don’t be afraid to think creatively! You can also add flair by using glasses in untraditional ways. A set of Libbey Mini Wine Tasting Glasses can double as décor when filled with candies, nuts and dried fruit. Or use shot glasses for shrimp cocktail. Remember, bigger isn’t always better for holiday parties.

Need-to-know LED holiday light tips By: G. M. Filisko ©HouseLogic.com LED holiday lights vs. old-fashioned bulbs: 6 tips to help you decide which is right for you. Should you chuck all your good old holiday light strings and buy new LED holiday lights? Here's how to decide. 1. LED holiday lights save you money. LED lights use at least 90% less energy than traditional holiday lights, according to the U.S. government's Energy Star program. That results in a $50 energy savings for the average family during the holidays, says Avital Binshtock of the Sierra Club in San Francisco. Put it into perspective: The amount of electricity consumed by one 7-watt incandescent bulb could power 140 LEDs-enough to light two 24-foot strings, says Energy Star. 2. But LED lights typically cost more than old-fashioned holiday lights.
•GE 100-bulb string of Energy Starcertified LED white lights: $18.97 at Lowe's •GE 100-bulb string of conventional white lights: $8.97 But shop around because a growing number of retailers are offering sales on LED holiday lights and, if you can't find a sale before the holidays, you can certainly find one after. Plus, prices will surely go down as these lights gain traction. 3. LED holiday lights last and last. LED bulbs can keep your season bright for as long as 100,000 hours, says Cathy Choi, president of Moonachie, N.J.-based Bulbrite, which manufactures LED and regular bulbs. That's substantially longer than the life of your old holiday light strings. 4. You can string a BIG strand of LED lights. Safety wise, you shouldn't connect more than three traditional light strings, but you can connect up to 87 LED holiday light strings, totaling a whopping 1,500 feet, Choi says. So blow your neigh-
bor's display away by cocooning your house in lights: •You won't have to buy as many extension cords. •You can take your holiday lighting display further away from the outlet. 5. LED lights reduce the risk of fire. They stay cooler than incandescent bulbs, according to Energy Star. 6. How about that hue? Some people stick with their old lights because they don't like the brighter hue that white LED holiday lights emit. But Choi says manufacturers now offer a "warm white" bulb that more closely mimics the glow of an incandescent light. Be sure to read the label to choose a bright or warm white and to ensure what you're purchasing is Energy Star-certified. Colored and color-changing LED holiday lights are more vibrant than conventional lights, making your display easier to see from the street, Choi says.
