With the colder months quickly approaching, please keep the following items in mind to ensure we all have a wonderful Winter Season! If you are going out of town for an extended period of time, please make sure to notify the office.

If you discover any kind of water leak in your apartment, please call the maintenance request line immediately. It is so important to correct water leaks ASAP to minimize damages.
Mold vs. Mildew
Mold and mildew, both forms of fungi, thrive in environments with unchecked moisture, but they have key differences in appearance and health risks. Mildew is typically flat and powdery, while mold has a fuzzy, raised look and can lead to more serious health problems. Controlling moisture levels is the best way to prevent their growth.

Pests don’t pay rent! Our pest control contractor visits our community every 1st & 3rd Wednesday of the month. Let the service request line at 866-994-5495 know if you have some unwelcome guests.
Flatten Your Boxes Before Recycling
Help us keep the recycling area organized! Please remember to break down and flatten all cardboard boxes before placing them in the recycling dumpster. This simple step helps create more space, ensures proper recycling, and keeps our community clean. Thank you for your cooperation!

🍴🍲Healthier Holiday Cooking Tips
Generations ago, people consumed more fatty foods, but their weight was generally lower than today’s averages. It was probably because they were involved in physical work instead of sitting at a desk. Or maybe they ate less every day. Whatever the cause, tweaking Grandma‘s recipes is a great idea. Some examples:
• Refrigerate the gravy and scoop off the hardened fat before reheating and serving.
• Use less bread in turkey dressing and more onions, garlic, celery and vegetables. Moisten with chicken or vegetable broth and applesauce.
• Make mashed potatoes with skim milk, chicken broth, garlic powder and Parmesan cheese instead of whole milk and butter. Some recipes call for fat-free sour cream.
• Try a new recipe for eggnog: four bananas, 1 1/2 cups skim milk, 1 1/2 cups plain nonfat yogurt, 1/4 teaspoon rum extract and some ground nutmeg. Puree the ingredients and sprinkle the nutmeg on top.
• For dessert, make pumpkin pie using two egg whites for each whole egg and replace cream with fat-free evaporated milk. Replace heavy cream in cheesecakes and cream pies with evaporated milk. Top cakes with powdered sugar, fresh fruit or fruit sauce.
• Remove the skin from roasted turkey before eating it or placing it on a serving dish.
