Answers given by elementary school age children to the following questions:

Why did God make mothers?
1. She’s the only one who knows where the scotch tape is.
2. Mostly to clean the house.
3. To help us out of there when we were getting born.

What kind of little girl was your Mom?
1. My Mom has always been my Mom and none of that other stuff.
2. I don’t know because I wasn’t there, but my guess would be pretty
bossy.
3. They say she used to be nice.

If you could change one thing about your Mom, what would it be?
1. She has this weird thing about me keeping my room clean. I’d get rid
of that.

did it and not me.
3. I would like for her to get rid of those invisible eyes on her back.

Who’s the boss at your house?
1. Mom doesn’t want to be boss, but she has to because dad’s such a goof
ball.
2. Mom. You can tell by room inspection. She sees the stuff under the
bed.
3. I guess Mom is, but only because she has a lot more to do than dad.

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY TO ALL OUR GREAT MOMS!

LEASING CENTER

Leasing Hours:

Monday – Friday 10:00 am – 6:00 pm Subject to change

Saturday – 12:00 – 4:00 pm

Don’t forget that the drop box outside of the office is available for you to drop your rent payments (please include building and apartment number in a sealed envelope), correspondence and keys.

DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME BEGINS

Be sure to set your clocks one hour forward on Sunday, March 11^th.

LEASE RENEWALS

Lease renewals are mailed out to residents at least 45 days before the end of their current Lease End Date. The lease renewal must be returned to the Leasing Office 1 month prior to the end of your current lease term.

If you do not do this, your lease will automatically renew for 12 months at the rate quoted on your lease renewal form. If you intend to move; please fill out a Notice to Vacate and include a forwarding address. This can be picked up in the Leasing Office. Sorry, we cannot accept a verbal notice to vacate.

NOTICE TO VACATE & EARLY TERMINATION

If your time here at GolfView is coming to an end, a minimum of a 30 day notice must be given in writing and include a forwarding address. A notice to vacate is separate from your Lease Renewal Form and can be picked up in the Leasing Office.

If you are terminating your lease early, the early termination fee plus concession paybacks must be paid in full at the time you are giving notice.

MOVING OUT??

Just a few reminders before you turn in keys:

§ Please remember to keep the heat turned ON and set at 62 degrees. If you fail to do this, WATER PIPES CAN BURST and you will be responsible for all damages that may occur to your unit and any others that may also be damaged as a result.

Check with the office to be sure you do not have any balances owed (previous rent or utilities) and that we have a forwarding address to send any mail that may still be delivered to your unit and your final statement or security deposit refund.

MAINTENANCE CORNER

PLEASE REMEMBER:

§ Patios/balconies/entrance areas are not for storage or a place for garbage!! Any violators are subject to charges per item! Please dispose of your garbage immediately in the dumpsters throughout the community.
§ PLEASE clean up after your pets. We work hard to keep our community an enjoyable place to live and you can do your part by taking the time to pick up your pet’s waste.
§ PLEASE CALL THE OFFICE WHEN ANY WORK NEEDS TO BE DONE IN YOUR APARTMENT. Do not stop and tell the maintenance person of any issues. Everything needs to be processed through the office first.

MAILBOXES

Please be sure you are checking your mail box and checking it often. Not only is it important to receive correspondence sent from the Leasing Office, but it is equally important for your own bills, etc. If your mailbox remains full for a few consecutive days, the mail carrier may assume the unit is abandoned and will no longer deliver mail to your address.

Buy-Sell-Trade-Give-A-Way

Sell: A baby swing-electric/battery $25.00

Please call Ashley or Danny anytime between 8am-10 pm. (989)545-6099.

Buy: Computer desk. Chocolate brown or dark brown only. I prefer a more modern one, but, if not that’s ok. Desk chair any type. Call anytime. (989) 714-1416.

RECIPES!

After-School Snacks

Pita Nachos Split a whole-wheat pita into 2 rounds, then cut into wedges. Broil until golden, then sprinkle with grated cheddar and salsa and broil until the cheese melts. Top with sliced scallions.

Chocolate Chow Mein Microwave 1/4 cup each peanut butter, chocolate chips and butter until melted. Put 3 cups each chow mein noodles and Chex cereal, and 1/2 cup each chopped peanuts and raisins in a resealable plastic bag; add the chocolate mixture and shake to coat. Add 2 cups confectioners’ sugar and shake again.

Pretzel Melts Sandwich small slices of cheddar between mini pretzels. Put on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake about 10 minutes at 425 degrees F. Serve with mustard.

Yogurtwiches Place a scoop of frozen yogurt between graham cracker squares. Roll the edges in chocolate chips. Freeze until firm.

Brownie Pudding

½ pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, plus extra for buttering the dish

4 extra-large eggs, at room temperature

2 cups sugar

¾ cup good cocoa powder

½ cup all-purpose flour

Seeds scraped from 1 vanilla bean

1 tablespoon framboise liqueur (optional)

Vanilla ice cream, for serving

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Lightly butter a 2-quart (9 by 12 by 2-inch) oval baking dish. Melt the 1/2 pound of butter and set aside to cool.

In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the eggs and sugar on medium-high speed for 5 to 10 minutes, until very thick and light yellow. Meanwhile, sift the cocoa powder and flour together and set aside.

When the egg and sugar mixture is ready, reduce the speed to low and add the vanilla seeds, framboise, if using, and the cocoa powder and flour mixture. Mix only until combined. With mixer still on low, slowly pour in the cooled butter and mix again just until combined.

Pour the brownie mixture into the prepared dish and place it in a larger baking pan. Add enough of the hottest tap water to the pan to come halfway up the side of the dish and bake for exactly 1 hour. A cake tester inserted 2 inches from the side will come out 3/4 clean. The center will appear very under-baked; this dessert is between a brownie and a pudding.

Allow to cool and serve with vanilla ice cream.

UPCOMING HOLIDAY!!!!
