With Labor Day this weekend everyone will be out for the last picnics and barbeques as we say goodbye to summer and hello to fall. Some of the agencies have posted this week on topics that could keep yourself and your family happy and safe for the holiday weekend.
If you are big on the grill this weekend, Encompass Lending of Katy, Texas offers more than just Texas and Colorado Mortgage Advice. They have offered tips to get the meat just right. Low and slow is the way to go when barbequing meats, rather than just plain grilling.
Grilling is the process of quickly cooking meat, fish, or veggies over high heat. So this would be your burgers, dogs, even a nice sirloin strip. Barbequing, however, is the “low and slow” method of creating perfection. Check out the post for more tips and recipes for your Labor Day barbequing needs, and remember, don’t ever grill indoors.
If you’re not the grilling type and prefer take out, Headquarter Insurance of Florida has offered some tasty looking but super high calorie options you should probably avoid if you want to keep your svelte summer figure.
The Florida agency outlined 5 deadly deli sandwiches that will not only clog your arteries, but pack on the pounds certainly contributing to health ailments that could have your premiums on the rise. Since they know Florida life and health insurance, Headquarter Insurance encourages you to gorge in moderation.
Steering away from food, there are some other precautions that could come up this weekend during parties, weddings or strolling on the beach. With the weather looking nice in most parts of the country for the weekend, many people are going to be taking their pets out as many beaches re-open the property to animals in September.
If you have small children you should be careful as Dagley Insurance lets us know dog bites accounted for more than 1/3 of all home insurance liability claims in Texas last year.
Another agency post this week alerts handy California residents who might have plans to fix up the house during the long weekend. California recently instated a law that insures all California Contractors must be certified to work on homes built before 1978 due to the risk of lead paint.
If you are working on your own property you’re off the hook, but make sure any contractor you hire to complete that project over the weekend is certified.
From all of us here at Astonish Results we hope everyone has a safe and fun weekend!
