Bring Spring Indoors

That fresh spring air is invigorating, but most of us spend most of our days inside. And, if you’ve had the place closed up all winter with the heat running, the air inside probably isn’t quite so pleasant. Let the spring freshness in!

That could be as simple as opening a window, but if you have allergies, it’s still a bit chilly outside or your windows don’t open up, there are plenty of other options. Bring flowering plants indoors to lend their scent to the room (and a splash of color, too), or set out a bowl of cut orange and lemon to give a light, citrusy aroma to your kitchen or bath. You can even add a tablespoon or two of lemon juice to the humidifier to disperse the scent throughout the apartment.

Who is Responsible if I Have a Break-In?

Random crime can occur even in the nicest neighborhoods. Residents are responsible for their own belongings. That’s one reason that management requires renter’s insurance for all occupants; that small monthly fee can ensure that your personal property is protected in the event of a burglary. In order to take advantage of these protections, it’s important that you follow certain procedures. For example, most insurance companies will require a police report before considering a claim based on a break-in, so you’ll want to contact the police immediately. And, you’ll need to contact management right away, failing to take action, document the incident, report to law enforcement or provide required documentation could end up costing you money. And, you may be liable if your negligence caused the break-in, so be sure to follow your lease terms and take reasonable security precautions.

Baked Cinnamon Apple Chips

It’s apple season! Try these crispy, yummy apple chips that’ll disappear as fast as you can make them. Healthy and kid-friendly, too!

-2 to 3 apples
-Ground cinnamon
-Sugar

Preheat oven to 220 F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Cut apples in thin slices and spread in single layer on sheets. Sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar and place in the oven. Bake for two hours flipping them over halfway through baking. Turn off oven and let cool off inside the oven. This will help give them a crunchier texture. Store at room temperature for up to one week
