Decorating touches can help retreats sparkle

By JAMIE STENGLE Associated Press

DALLAS – From airy beach houses filled with light to rustic retreats tucked into the mountains, vacation homes can lead to inspired decorating.

“You love that place, that’s why you’re there. That’s the place you want to go to relax,” says Dallas interior designer Jan Showers, author most recently of “Glamorous Retreats” (Harry N. Abrams).

“You want it very user-friendly.”

Homes detailed in her book include a seaside cottage in Nantucket with decorating touches in cool blues and greens; shells that the family collected are placed throughout the house.

An artist’s getaway in Marin County, Calif., features the owner’s photorealist work, and a studio that is a riot of color, with shelves filled with books and antique toys. The master bed-

may want linen pillows that are lighter colors, more summery, and if it’s winter, you might want some plaid pillows.

Another thing that’s easy to change is throws. I love throws – they just sort of say “take a nap.� And now there are all kinds of wonderful rugs at all kinds of prices, and washable. It can change your whole look in a room to do a new rug.

AP: What about outdoor spaces?

Showers: People now want their outdoor spaces to be like their indoor spaces. There are even outside air conditioners – you can find anything to be outdoors.

You’ve got to have outdoor fabrics. There are even outdoor lamps now.

I like a drinks cart of some kind that you can put lemonade on, cocktails – something cold in the

summertime.

AP: If you can’t afford a retreat, how can you make your home feel like one?

Showers: What is it that people really want to do when they go away?

Most of us think about a good beach read or fun books, so I would say just buy some.

Disconnect, take your cell phone and put it in a drawer. Go to the grocery store and buy some different food that you don’t normally cook.

If it’s not too hot, you could get a big umbrella and sit outside with your book.

Go out to dinner someplace that you don’t usually go.

Naps are great on vacations – add throws to your sofas and settle in for a nice one after a lunch al fresco and maybe with wine.

And I think fresh flowers really make you feel like you’re in a special place.

Give yourself a facial.

A garden with cabbage and other seasonal greens grows in New Paltz, N.Y. Growing fall vegetables is like having a whole other growing season in the garden. Cool weather brings out the best flavor from vegetables such as kale, broccoli, and carrots. And the harvest season is long; fall vegetables just sit pretty, awaiting harvest at your leisure.

seeds of spinach, mustard, arugula and turnips. Also plant small radishes, the kind you normally sow in spring. And consider trying some offbeat fall greens, such as mache, miner’s lettuce and shungiku, an edible chrysanthemum.

A FINAL SOWING, FOR yOUR SOIL

The final crop for the fall vegetable garden – sown any time before the end of September – is not for you, but for the soil.

This would be a so-called cover crop, usu-

ally rye grain or oats, sown to protect the soil from rain and wind, conserve nutrients and improve tilth.

Legumes, such as peas or alfalfa, add nitrogen to the soil via symbiotic bacteria in their roots and garner it from the atmosphere.

A cover crop also looks nice, a verdant blanket over the ground late into fall.

Local seed racks are often cleared out after midsummer. If this is the case, or if you seek varieties that are unavailable locally, you can order seeds by mail.

Homegrown ingredients make for a great homemade smoothie

By DEAN FOSDICK Associated Press

Smoothies are a nutritious way to stir things up in the kitchen, especially if the ingredients come from your garden.

Few drinks are as refreshing as fresh or frozen fruits and syrups mixed with milk and yogurt. Many people also add greens. “Follow the harvest and work with whatever is ripening,� said Nan Chase, who with DeNeice Guest wrote the new “Drink the Harvest�. “We get into canning. The starting point is with the juices.�

Smoothies are easy to make. All that’s required is a blender, some liquid (milk, juices or water), ice cubes (or ice cream), yogurt, fruits and greens.

Strawberries, blueberries, peaches and blackberries are great smoothie ingredients because they have a long shelf life when preserved, Chase said. “We can use them any time of year,� she said. “Syrups are a big component of what you can do with the juices.�

You gain a lot from a little when blending syrups into smoothies, Chase said. “We find that you get a significant amount of concentrated flavor and you don’t

need an 8-ounce glass. Just a quarter cup can provide the necessary (daily) nutrient load for fruit.’ ‘ Some suggestions from Colorado State University Extension for enhancing the flavor and nutritional punch of smoothies: O Boost the amount of dietary fiber by leaving on the fruit skins (except bananas).

O Nuts and seeds, along with nut and seed butters (like peanut butter), contribute protein, fiber, antioxidants, nutrients and heart-healthy unsaturated fats.

O Try green smoothies for variety. You can use raw, leafy garden vegetables like kale, spinach, collard greens and Swiss chard.

Avocados, parsley, fennel, broccoli, carrots, radishes or celery can be added to fruit smoothies for an enriched natural sweetness.

O Go organic with your gardening, bust still wash all produce thoroughly. “Use whatever is in your herb garden,� Chase said. “Bay leaf and basil can infuse drinks (when boiled down) with a smoky flavor.

But he said weak wage growth and tight lending standards were still depressing activity, especially among first-time buyers.

A report Monday indicated homebuilders are feeling more confident about their sales prospects, a hopeful sign that home construction and sales of newly built homes could pick up after stalling in recent months.

The National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo builder sentiment index rose in August to 55, up two points from a revised 53 for July. That is the third straight monthly increase and put the index at its highest reading since January, when it was 56.

Readings above 50 indicate more builders view sales conditions as good rather than poor.

recovering over the past two years. Though new homes represent only a fraction of the housing market, they have an outsize impact on the economy.

Each home built creates an average of three jobs for a year and generates about $90,000 in tax revenue, according to data from the Home Builders.

outlook for sales over the next six months and traffic by prospective buyers all increased in August, brightening the outlook.

Sales of new homes are running behind last year’s pace. They fell 8.1 percent in June to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 406,000.

A mix of rising home prices, higher mortgage rates and weak wage growth have made it more difficult for potential buyers to buy a newly built home.

These factors have particularly depressed demand by first-time buyers.

But economists are still looking for a rebound, given the fact that the U.S. economy has been adding jobs at a healthy clip with gains topping 200,000 jobs for six straight months.

By CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER AP Economics Writer

WASHINGTON – A fourth straight monthly increase in sales of existing homes provided the latest evidence Thursday that the U.S. housing market is rebounding from a weak start to the year.

Housing has been a drag on an otherwise strengthening economy, in part because a harsh winter delayed many sales. But Americans are stepping up purchases as more homes have been put up for sale.

And low mortgage rates and moderating price gains have made homes more affordable. “The momentum is in the right direction,� said Andrew Labelle, an economist at TD Bank who noted that the past four months have marked the fastest four-month sales gain since 2011. “Sustained jobs gains, as well as the fall in mortgage rates since the beginning of the year, appear to have unleashed at least some pent-up demand.�

Sales of existing homes rose 2.4 percent in July to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.15 million, the National Association of Realtors said Thursday. That was the highest annual rate since September of 2013.

The increase follows other encouraging signs that the housing market is improving. The pace of home construction starts surged 15.7 percent in July to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.1 million homes, the government said this week. Applications for building permits, a gauge of future activity, also strengthened last month.

And a survey of homebuilders released Monday showed that they were more confident about future sales.

The encouraging readings contrast with reports earlier this year, when weak sales and limited building led economists to characterize housing as a faltering piece of the economic recovery. Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen and Vice Chairman Stanley Fischer had pointed to housing as an economic weak spot.

Economists noted that housing still hasn’t fully recovered from its slowdown earlier this year. The annual sales pace remains 4.3 percent below last July’s

George Limperis, a Realtor with Paragon Real Estate Group, walks through the kitchen of a property in the Noe Valley neighborhood in San Francisco last week. On Thursday, the U.S. housing market was reported to be rebounding from a weak start to the year.

rate. And construction has merely returned to its pace in October; it has yet to exceed it.

Yet economists say they’re encouraged by signs that the latest sales gains are sustainable.

Stephanie Karol, an economist at IHS Global Insight, said a “virtuous cycle� is emerging: More homeowners are listing their properties for sale. A greater supply of homes then encourages more potential buyers to take the plunge. And that, in turn, helps sustain modest price gains, which lead more people to sell. “This is exactly the sort of pattern we want to see,�

Karol said.

The number of homes for sale rose 3.5 percent in July from June to 2.37 million, the most in nearly two years.

Affordability is improving. The median price slipped a bit in July from June to $222,900, the Realtors said. Though that was still 4.9 percent more than a year ago, year-over-year price gains have slowed.

And the average rate for a 30-year mortgage fell to 4.1 percent this week, the lowest level this year, according to mortgage giant Freddie Mac. At the start of the year, the average rate was 4.53 percent.

A study released Thursday by data provider Zillow found that home buyers paid just 15.3 percent of their incomes on the mortgage for a typical home at the end of the April-June quarter. That’s much lower than the 22.1 percent share during the housing bubble that ended in 2006.

The Realtors report also showed that healthy sales

make up a rising share of purchases. Fewer home sales stem from foreclosures or involve homes for which the seller owed more on their mortgage than the home was worth.

Those “distressed� sales made up just 9 percent of sales in July – the lowest proportion since the Realtors began tracking the figure in October 2008. Distressed sales, which tend to drag down neighborhood prices, had made up 36 percent of sales in 2009.

Many distressed sales were made to investors, including private equity firms.

They bought large numbers of homes and drove up overall sales in 2011 and 2012.

Ron Peltier, CEO of HomeServices America, a real estate brokerage affiliated with Berkshire Hathaway, noted that those sales weren’t sustainable. “We were seeing sales in clumps,� he said. “Now we’re seeing sales the good old-fashioned way: One at a time.�

First-time homebuyers made up 29 percent of sales in July, up slightly from June and the second straight gain. Still, that’s well below the typical figure of 40 percent. Firsttime buyers are critical to a housing recovery, in part because they enable homeowners seeking to buy larger homes to sell.

First-time buyers are likely benefiting from strong job gains. Hiring since February has reached its healthiest pace since 2006. But first-timers also face higher credit standards and down-payment requirements, making it harder for many to qualify for mortgages.
