How to Get Your Home Ready for Barbecues

How to Get Your Home Ready for Barbecues

Preparing your backyard for barbecue season.

It’s that time of year again! It’s time to dig out the barbecue from its winter hibernation and start preparing for summer. Additionally, you’ll want to ensure that your home and backyard are ready. After all, if you’re going to be hosting a party, your home and garden should be in good and safe condition. Here’s how to get started!

Show your lawn some TLC. You may need to mow, rake, or even re-sod patches of your lawn where the grass has yellowed or dried out. It’s also a good idea to do a quick walk around your lawn to check for holes or other possible tripping hazards.

Clear the walkways. You don’t want any of your guests to stumble or step over things to get to the entertaining area. Ensure that your walkways are clear of debris and items, fill in holes and cracks, and light all the of paths well.

Check the deck. Aesthetically, look for any spots on your deck that might need a touch of paint of a vigorous scrub. Be on the lookout for any signs that your deck might not be structurally sound to handle an influx of people. If you spot any signs of wood rot or termites, it’s best to sort it as soon as possible.

Create a kid-friendly zone. Even if you only intend to have one child in attendance at your outdoor party, do the parents a favor and create a kid-friendly zone. This could include a ladder ball, cornhole, sidewalk chalk, and other activities that will keep him or her entertained for hours.

Scrub up the grill. Would it be a party without grilled food? We think not! Regardless of what you’ll be making, you’ll want to ensure that your grill is in tip-top condition beforehand. Scrape it down and give it a good clean. Ensure that it is set up in a good and safe location (away from children and pets, overhanging trees, and the house).

Ensure your home has the right protection in place. Contact All Nevada Insurance to get started on the right homeowners insurance policy to suit your needs, budget, and belongings!

Do You Need Rental Car Insurance?

Do You Need Rental Car Insurance?

Determine if you would benefit from securing rental car insurance.

When renting a car, it’s natural to think that you need insurance from the rental car company to protect your journey. While they may want to sell you auto insurance coverage with all of the added bells and whistles, it’s wise to first consider if you actually need insurance. Before you drive your rental car off the lot, here are a few basics you need to know.

Before you take out the rental company’s car coverage, you’ll want to see whether you’re already covered by your own personal insurance policy and credit card benefits.

Typically, there are four coverages available when you rent a car:

  • Loss-damage waiver: Covers you for liability if a car is damaged while you are renting it. If you don’t have this coverage, the rental car company could charge you for loss of use during repairs, as well as any repair and towing charges. If your primary insurer doesn’t cover these, you’ll need the waiver.
  • Liability coverage: Encompasses damage to any property as well as medical expenses for passengers in another vehicle if you’re in a collision.
  • Personal accident insurance: Covers medical costs for you and your passengers in the event of an accident.
  • Personal effects coverage: Covers valuables you keep in the car in case of theft or damage.

Are you covered already?

If you aren’t already an insured driver, you’ll want to take out the car insurance from the rental company. However, if you already own auto insurance, you may be covered already.

  • Check to see if you have adequate liability limits.
  • If you have comprehensive and collision coverage, you may consider declining the rental company’s loss damage waiver.
  • If you have adequate health insurance, you may not need the company’s personal accident insurance.
  • Review your home or renter’s insurance policy. This should cover your belongings wherever you take them, meaning it’s safe to decline the rental company’s personal effects coverage.
  • See if your credit card offers any benefits for putting the rental car payment on the card. Some cards will offer complimentary insurance.

Part of saving money and staying safe on the roads is securing reliable coverage. Visit All Nevada Insurance today to secure auto insurance to suit your needs. We serve Las Vegas and beyond!

Try This Fresh Recipe for Spring!

Whip up this delicious paella for springtime eating!

Now that spring is here, it’s time to indulge in the wonderful produce that the season brings. Perfect for the season is paella! While it isn’t a ready-in-ten-minutes meal, it is well-simmered, full of flavor, and can be used for lunches, dinners, and lunches again! Check out this delicious recipe for vegetable paella.

Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons salt, divided
  • 2 green garlic shoots or 1 clove of garlic, chopped
  • A quarter of a red pepper, sliced
  • 8 asparagus, sliced
  • 7 white button mushrooms, quartered
  • 1/2 cup tomato purée
  • 4 cups vegetable stock
  • 3/4 cups water
  • 1 spring of rosemary
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoky paprika
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • Pinch of saffron
  • 12 oz of paella rice
  • Quartered artichoke hearts
  • Sun-dried tomatoes
  • Lemon slices 

Instructions

  1. Using a paella pan, pour the oil into the middle of the pan and sprinkle 1 teaspoon of salt in a circle around the oil. Heat over medium heat and add the green garlic shoots or garlic to the oil. Fry until soft and translucent, then remove from pan and reserve.
  2. Bring about a quarter of the salt into the oil and add the red pepper to the oil. Fry until crisp-tender. Remove and reserve with the garlic.
  3. Bring another quarter of the salt into the oil and add the asparagus. Fry until crisp-tender, then remove and reserve with the pepper.
  4. Finally, bring in the last bit of salt to the oil and add the mushrooms. Fry until beginning to soften, then remove and reserve with the other vegetables.
  5. Add the tomato purée to the pan and simmer over high heat for about 2 minutes until reduced and very thick. Add in the vegetable stock and water and bring to a boil. Add the rosemary, paprika, and soy sauce and boil for 5 minutes. Reduce heat to minimum and add the saffron and 1 teaspoon of salt. Leave for 30 minutes on the lowest heat. It should not be simmering, just a tiny wisp of steam coming off the pan.
  6. After 30 minutes remove the rosemary and bay leaf and add the rice and spread it out around the pan. Raise heat to high and boil for 7 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 6 minutes. Add the fried vegetables, quartered artichoke hearts and sun-dried tomatoes to the rice and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook for 6 minutes. By now the rice should be cooked through but not mushy and the liquid absorbed. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes. Serve with lemon slices.

How to Be Kind to the Planet for Earth Day

How to Be Kind to the Planet for Earth Day

Easy steps to take to go green.

With Earth Day just around the corner (April 22nd), now is the perfect time to reassess your habits and look for easy ways to be more eco-friendly in the home. Mother Nature has always been kind to us by giving us a planet to live on. However, we haven’t always returned the favor. We are currently killing out endangered species, using up precious resources, and polluting waters and air. To benefit the planet (and, in some cases, your wallet), check out these tips for going green.

Reduce your plastic consumption.

Plastic is a major offender to the environment. It harms wildlife and sits in landfills or floats in the ocean for thousands of years. Reduce or eliminate your plastic consumption by saying no to straws, using reusable bags for shopping, buying your food from the bulk bins, and taking reusable mugs and cups with you when out and about.

Use green cleaning products.

To clean our homes, we often use products that are loaded with toxic chemicals and environmentally harmful substances. Instead, switch to green alternatives that are cruelty-free and do not harm the environment. You can even make your own out of lemon, vinegar, and baking soda!

Walk more.

We’re sure you’ve heard this one before! Walk more and drive less. Saving gas will help to conserve this limited fuel resource. Whether you walk, cycle, or take public transport, find new ways to travel instead of relying on your car. If you do need to drive, carpool with others to conserve gas.

Seal gaps around doors and windows.

Older homes tend to have more gaps around the doors and windows, letting in air from the outside, causing the AC and furnace to work harder. Putting weather stripping around those gaps can save you money on your heating and cooling while preventing energy from being wasted.

While you adopt a greener lifestyle, leave your insurance needs to the experts. All Nevada Insurance can help you secure reliable coverage across Las Vegas and beyond.

How Bad Credit Can Affect Life Insurance Premiums

How Bad Credit Can Affect Life Insurance Premiums

Your credit score is a factor in your life insurance.  

We hear so much these days about how credit, and credit scores in particular, can affect just about anything you want to do in life. This is also true when applying for life insurance. Generally, your credit score will be taken into account when insurers are determining your premium. Before you apply for a life insurance policy, it’s a good idea to take a look at how bad credit can influence the final cost of insurance.

Your credit history can give insurers a snapshot of how well you’ve managed your finances. Insurance companies tend to look out for red flags that might indicate that you’re too much of a risk to insure. Being deep in debt or missing several credit card payments will tell insurers that you’re not keeping a tight grip on your finances. Typically, having bad credit won’t hurt your chances of qualifying for life insurance – you may just end up paying more per premium.

Late payments can be detrimental to your score. However, instances such as charge-offs, accounts in collection status, bankruptcy, and foreclosure can do even more damage. If you have any of these delinquencies on your credit report, it can have a large impact on the rate class you fall into.

Exactly how bad credit will be handled will depend upon the life insurance company that you are applying to. The insurer will want to know what kind of work you do because certain occupations are considered to be more hazardous than others. If in the course of investigating your employment they find that you are unemployed or have a history of spotty employment, they may pull and review your credit report to get a clearer picture of your finances.

Before you apply for life insurance, be sure to review your credit report. You can work on improving your score by paying bills on time, lowering your debt-to-income ratio, and not taking on any more debt.

Spring Driving Hazards to Look Out For

Posted on by TheSph3r3
Spring Driving Tips for the Season

Be mindful of common springtime driving hazards.

Winter is over, the temperatures are rising, and by now you have already enjoyed the start of springtime driving. Now that spring is truly here, it’s time to think about the changes you will have to make to your driving habits, as well as being aware of the changes happening on the roads. Check out these hazards (and how to handle them!) for safe driving this spring.

Potholes

The adverse winter weather can wreak havoc on the roads, causing large and harmful potholes. Deep potholes can throw your car’s alignment off and can also become the reason you need a new wheel and tire. Carefully try to drive around the pothole, if it is safe to do so.

Children

Longer days and warmer weather brings children outside to play and allows them to walk to and from school in light, clear weather. Pay extra attention when driving on residential roads and streets near schools. Children may not always be looking where they are walking. Slow down and keep an eye out for youth.

Cyclists

Motorcyclists and cyclists are more likely to be on the road during spring. This is a time when all drivers should brush up on their vision techniques in order to stay focused and spot smaller road users. Respect everyone on the road and take care when driving near them to avoid any unnecessary happenings on the road.

Animals

Hibernation is now over. Spring is the time when animals come out and begin their search for food. Being aware of this can prevent unnecessary animal deaths and damage to your vehicle. Slow down and take care on roads where wildlife activity is high.
