    Marigold at Cypress Village

    It didn't sound like English.  But when it's a shouting match, it kinda all sounds the same.

    Party supply rentals + helium tank

    Something with meat.  I would go with Woodfire Ranch again but they're meat was a bit on the peppery side for the kids.  Also they don't deliver from their Irvine store. What WTTCMN said.  8)  And she's always right.

    Party supply rentals + helium tank

    Does anyone know a good reputable place that can rent a few tables, chairs, and helium tank? Primarily the helium tank is something we definitely need. --- Also if you know a good catering company please let me know too.  Thank you.

    Additional Cost and Options for New Home Purchase

    Well the poll doesn't specify if it's asking for just design center upgrades or design center + outside vendors upgrades.  If it's the latter it's hard not to be in the 50k zone.  Especially with landscaping costs.

    Omg! 0.30 kW/hour!!

    Yes that's about right for our place too.  Although one time it got to 88 degrees during the summer and it cause a lot of problems with products and food in the house.  Bananas, bread, and chocolate don't like 88 degrees. We do have the ceiling fans upstairs running 24/7.  If we had vaulted...

    Whole House Fan

    Wow!  Thanks for sharing.  I'm going to download this and let Mr. Z take a look.  We are still on the fence about our attic fan ventilation.  The builder did give me the roofer's contact and the roofer was willing to install the attic fan. But maybe it's not such a good idea after all.

    Omg! 0.30 kW/hour!!

    Oh my!  But you have a bigger house so you probably get more allocation in Tier 1 than me. My electric bill is looking very nice after the repair and I am thoroughly enjoying cranking the AC to 75 degrees in the house.  I know things are well when the kids complain it's too cold in the house. ...

    Mattress

    I just re-ordered another Room & Board mattress (twin size) because I loved the full size version so much. http://www.roomandboard.com/catalog/bedroom/room-and-board-mattresses/encased-coil-mattress-firm-plush-and-ultra-plush-options I like the plush version of their Encased Coil Mattress.  So...

    Inventory creeping up?

    Yes, thank goodness.  We can now finally use the AC and know that our bill won't go beyond $150.  We've been enjoying 75 degrees in the house and our projected bill for this month is $140 and that's only with the wire fixed for just one week in that bill.

    Inventory creeping up?

    Trust me, you don't want an "ZeroLot leak" in any utility devices. Turns out it was a bad wire that was sending strange signals to the circuit board that controls the FAU. Hence the odd hours at night it turned on and off.  That was one possessed wire.

    Additional Cost and Options for New Home Purchase

    I'm with WTTCMN and I don't go with the %.  But I DID break it down: - 3.2%  through builder (electrical, many ethernet upgrades, ceiling fan prewire, extra canned lights, upgraded air filter, caesarstone throughout, upgraded tile flooring in all 3 bathrooms) - 4.2% outside contractors...

    Class 302 moving into Marketplace

    So sorry about the lack of lemonade stands this summer.  We made lemonades BUT the little ZLs drank it all!  I barely had any for myself.  We made strawberry lemonade and it was such a hit I had to fight for sips myself. Baked 50+ cookies but little ZLs and friends ate them all too.  I need to...

    Give Me Gratitude Or Give Me Debt

    I've never understood the concept of keeping up with the Joneses.  Why?  Not like the Joneses is giving me a report card on my progress. So nice article on reiterating what's the most important things in life.

    New homes: question

    Agrees with irvineguy.  Irvine Pacific is pretty good about refunding the deposit should you lose a job, although you may have to fight for it or have your realtor speak on your behalf.  Even tho in the contract they say you will lose your deposit. However if you relocate, which happened to...

    Parking in front of your house

    The only rule I know is in Irvine the ratio is 2 people max per room.  If it's a 4 bedroom house then a max of 8 people can live there. This is to prevent a house from becoming a hotel and other things. As for turning a house into a frat house ... That depends on the association.  The one in...
