Are you considering holding a party in the near future, but are not sure whether to have a picnic in the park or a barbecue party at home? People do enjoy both kinds of party, although some may have a first choice. One of the big differences between a picnic and a barbecue is often the food.

After all, you are usually allowed to have a barbecue and cook food in your own backyard, but there may be restrictions on cooking food on an open fire in a park or picnic site for fire safety purposes, so most people take pre-cooked meats and sandwiches.

There are advantages and disadvantages to both kinds of party, but we will begin by looking at the food aspect, as most parties centre around food. An advantage of having a picnic is that you will be able to join in with your fellow picnickers more, because you will have already cooked the chicken wings and legs and made the sandwiches the night before.

You will have tins of sausage rolls and small cakes and all you will have to do is lay them out for people to help themselves. If you run out of sandwiches, people can do their own with the sliced bread that you will have brought just in case.

I think that many of us can agree that the Hot Tub Manufacturing is generally not considered a GREEN industry. To put out their products, most Hot tub companies just spray fiberglass and resins, use plastics and steel without much regard for the environment, except to follow EPA guidelines. Well all that just change when “The California Energy Commission (CEC)” recently updated some of the most rigid standards in the USA that monitors energy efficiency. The CEC recently revised a bill called “title 20″, which sets a standard amount of allowable energy used by a portable spa/hot tub. These new guidelines were NOT met by 65% of hot tub manufacturers who failed an independent study done by California Polytechnic State University. Softub, on the other hand, was the ONLY manufacturer to pass these new guidelines without having to make any changes to its manufacturing process.

As is to be expected, there are now more and more hot tubs that are coming into compliance with these new stricter regulations or have since complied with manufacturing changes. Softub lead the way in the Hot Tub Industry because of its unique design, function and in its already green industry standards. Softub has been a part of the “Green Movement”, since its inception. Many states are now adopting the CEC standards and implementing these energy requirements, does your hot tub meet those requirements?

A beautiful patio is just what you need when you come home after a busy day at the office. Step outside into the garden and catch the last of the sunshine before dinner. Curl up with a good book on a day off. Your own sanctuary right outside!

If your garden is quite small and outdoor space is precious you may feel you don’t have space for a patio area but it is worth carving out a little oasis for yourself in even the smallest garden.

1. Patio Furniture to Suit Your Needs

If you are just looking for a place to relax when you are alone, a single reclining chair is all you need. Make sure there is a soft cushion to fit the length of the chair and get a small side table for your drink and book. If you are looking to buy a whole patio set, make sure that one of the chairs reclines because it’s more difficult to relax in an upright chair.

2. Easy Access
