A traveling Easter egg hunt for Winnipeg apartment dwellers? Good idea!

Happy Easter!

As kids we looked forward to Easter for the chocolate, the extra day off school and the fun egg hunts. Why not relive a few childhood memories this Easter and celebrate the holiday with the same gusto you did as a child? Host a fun Easter get-together in your Winnipeg apartment, because you deserve it!

Host an Egg Decorating Party

Egg decorating can be fun and playful even as an adult. Below are a few websites that have great ideas and tutorials for getting creative with Easter eggs:

• Martha Stuart
• Bold Sky
• Epicurious

Once you’ve hatched out a plan, head to a local craft shop like Michaels, Artists Emporium or Wal-Mart and pick up any necessary materials. Invite friends and ask them to bring supplies as well.

Good Ol’ Fashioned Traveling Egg Hunt

Ok, so maybe it’s not old fashioned but it sure is fun. Get a group of friends together and buy an array of chocolates, candy, magazines and anything other fun things you can think of. Bulk Barn at 915 Empress St. in Winnipeg is a great place to stock up and they will likely have a ton Easter treats.

Get each participant to hide treats around their own Winnipeg apartment, this way everyone has a chance to participate in the hiding and the hunting. Start at one person’s apartment for brunch and the first Easter hunt, then continue to the next person’s apartment until your baskets are full and you’ve visited all of the search sites. Finish with a candy feast and some laughs.

Send Some Love

If you’re too busy to spend time with friends on the long weekend but want to send some Easter love, Balloon Bouquets Plus at 1795 Henderson Highway in Winnipeg has beautiful flower and candy bouquets guaranteed to bring a smile to anyone’s face.

Happy Easter Winnipeg apartment dwellers!

Tips for staying cool in your Winnipeg apartment this summer

Looking for a roomate...

It looks like summer is going to arrive early in Winnipeg, which means massive heat waves could be on the way. If you live in a Winnipeg apartment without air conditioning it can be tough to beat the heat.

The option exists to buy a window air conditioner but they’re expensive (to buy and too run) and they use a ton of energy. Implementing a few simple strategies around your apartment before the summer sun gets too intense can help you reduce the amount of heat in your home.

Window Coverings

You’d be amazed how much heat actually simmers in through your closed and exposed windows during a sunny day. Simply putting up curtains and/or blinds can help you significantly reduce the amount of heat that slips in. Curtains are actually quite easy to create yourself on a budget. Opening your windows during a breezy evening can help keep the heat down as well but remember to close them in the morning.

The Cross Current

Fans are a natural way to put a breeze into your apartment and they use far less energy than an air conditioning unit. By placing two fans facing each other from a distance you can create a nice crosswind that can work wonders for cooling both yourself and your apartment. Another option is to purchase an intake/outtake window fan. These are relatively inexpensive at Canadian Tire and they allow you to blow out hot air during the day and pull in cool air at night.

Reduce Energy

The fewer the devices running in your apartment the cooler it will be. Turn your lights off whenever possible and unplug unnecessary appliances. This will save you money on your hydro bill and will also keep you cooler. The Energy Savers website has more excellent tips for reducing your energy bill.

Freeze Your Pillowcase

This one sounds kind of strange but it’s a great trick for a soothing cool sleep. Put your pillowcase in a Ziploc freezer bag and place it in the freezer for about an hour before you go to bed. When you rest your head on the cool fabric you’ll wonder why you never tried this before.

Sweet (cool) dreams!
