Looking for a fresh start this New Year? Why not give your home a new and updated look with a fresh coat of paint. You’ll be surprised how different your abode can look and feel by simply updating your color scheme. Whether it’s the exterior that screams for a much-needed update to oomph your curb appeal, or a lackluster interior that could benefit from a few new hues to bring your interior spaces into the year 2015, paint is an inexpensive and easy way to modernize your home. And the number one rule of color? Have fun! Just what should homeowners look for in trendy but true new colors for 2015? Nature and neutrals still reign supreme at Sherwin-Williams, with people looking for a haven from our technology-driven, fast-paced work world. Homes have become peaceful retreats filled with a cool, neutral palette: muted tans and blues, whisper-soft grays and greens, and creams are all in the mix this year. Of course, there’s also a place for more moody colors that give a nod to today’s futuristic vibe. Think supernatural and magical tones, such as deep sea blues, heavenly aquas, terrestrial gold-yellows and browns, and even cyberspace shades of black, which all make themselves comfortable in today’s vivid palette.
Those looking for more cheerful colors need not fear. On the bright horizon are floral pinks and purples, and mellowed yellows and greens. The feel can be downright tropical. Expect to be seeing a lot of upbeat and pinky Coral Reef, as it’s the color of the year at Sherwin-Williams. Seems we’re feeling optimistic that the recession is behind us and the best is yet to come. Also look for bold, ethnic-inspired colors that reflect our collective anticipation of the upcoming Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. Expect expressive takes on the primary colors, including turquoise blues, spicy yellows, and rich reds. Green is 2015’s big player over at Benjamin Moore. Guilford Green, a muted silvery-grayish green, is their color of the year. This light ethereal hue is a winner whether you’re looking for a neutral interior or exterior hue that everyone will love.
(Get ready for lots of friends to copy!) In fact, greens of all muted hues abound on the hot list, keeping the organic, neutral look alive and well. The color pros at Benjamin Moore advise going monochromatic, with different shades of the same hue flowing from one interior room to the next. Sounds calm and tranquil … perfect for a peaceful New Year.
Strawberry ShortcakeVanilla Biscuit (Yields 2 - 1/2 sheet pans)1 cup all purpose flour, sifted5 whole eggs5 egg yolks1 cup sugar1 tbs vanilla extract5 egg whites1/3 cup sugar
Sift flour. In mixer, whip eggs, yolks, sugar and vanilla until light and fluffy. Whip egg whites until frothy and slowly add sugar. Continue mixing until meringue reaches stiff peak. Fold flour and me-ringue into egg yolk mixture. Bake at 325 degrees for 12 minutes.
Cream Cheese Mousse1 lb cream cheese, room temperature1 vanilla bean1/2 cup sugar3/4 to 1 cup heavy cream
Cream together sugar, vanilla and cream cheese. Slowly add cream.
Grand Marnier Wash1 cup sugar 2 cups waterGrand Marnier to taste
Bring water and sugar to a boil. Let cool and add Grand Marnier. Use to wash each layer of cake.
Swiss Meringue1 cup egg whites 2 cups sugar
Over a water bath, whisk egg whites and sugar until mixture reaches 140 degrees. Put in mixer bowl and whip until cool.
To Assemble:Using desired mold, cut biscuit. You will need three pieces of biscuit for each dessert. Place bis-cuit in bottom of mold, brush with Grand Marnier wash, pipe cream cheese mousse in center and layer with strawberries. Repeat process one more time. Finish with one piece of biscuit. Evenly press down on biscuit to ensure that it will stay standing when unmolded. Once meringue has cooled, pipe on top piece of biscuit. Using a kitchen torch, gently toast meringue before serving.
Created by the San Diego
Museum Council and
presented by Macy’s,
Museum Month celebrates
San Diego’s museums and culture by giving visitors
and locals in San Diego a chance to discover what’s
new at more than 40 area museums with incredible
savings. Macy’s Museum Passes offer half-off admission
to all participating museums throughout February and
applauds San Diego’s rich arts and cultural destinations
and puts the museum community in the spotlight.
You like the finer things in life. The best wines.
Perfectly tailored clothes. An impeccable home.
So when it comes to your car, you want luxury, too.
But you’re also aspiring to lead an eco-friendly
lifestyle. How can you feel good about your carbon
footprint driving around in a Maserati or Porsche?
However, the alternative—today’s hybrids—aren’t
exactly hot. To help reconcile your need for style
and speed with your desire to protect the planet, we
introduce the exquisite and truly remarkable Tesla.
Named after the electrical engineer and physicist
Nikola Tesla, the American car company Tesla Motors
designs, manufactures, and sells 100 percent electric
cars. That’s right: Their cars are completely electric,
with no tailpipe, no gas tank, and zero emissions. This
is a tend-setting car that is more than comfortable in
the company of those other luxury imports.
Tesla currently offers three models. The Model S is
a sports car meets sedan electric car with three
different-grade battery options (it can travel up to 300
miles per charge!). The Model X is an SUV style family
car with “falcon-wing” doors that open up rather than
out, allowing you to park in even the tightest of spots.
Not to mention that the door-wings look amazingly
cool and futuristic. The Model X even offers a third-row
seat that is easy to step rather than crawl into. The
larger Model X offers two battery-grade options, at
different price points. And finally, there’s Tesla’s
ultimate sports car, the Roadster, the jewel in the
crown of any sports car enthusiast’s collection. Also
in the works at Tesla is a “generation three” electric
car. While the three models currently available come
with higher-end price tags you’d expect from a
cutting-edge luxury car, the newest model set to
debut in several years will retail for less than $40,000,
and could truly change the way Americans drive
forever.
Sounds amazing, right? But just how does this
super-hot car work? You can simply charge your
Tesla in your garage every night so it’s ready to roll
the next day, the perfect plan for the around-town
driver as well as the commuter. Those taking a road
trips in the Model S can take advantage of Tesla
Superchargers, charging stations strategically built
in 75 locations throughout North America. Half the
battery can be charged in as little as 20 minutes,
enough time for you to have lunch and then be on
your way. (There are already 135 Tesla SuperCharger
stations in North America alone; the number of
stations is expected to grow significantly in the next
few years.)
If you’re in the market for some hot new wheels,
why not take the Tesla for a road test? Not only
will it turn heads with its sleek design, but you’ll be
doing a good turn for the environment. And did we
mention it scored the highest safety rating in America
in all categories? So go ahead and satisfy your need
for speed … and feel good about doing it.
