What to Do Around the House This Week
- Get the heat ready for Monday night: a low near 39°F is the kind of night that reveals a weak furnace. Run the system for 15 minutes on a mild afternoon first, and bring in potted herbs or cover them.
- Work around the wet days: the chance of rain or snow reaches 50 percent or more on Friday and Sunday. Set a boot tray and a second doormat at the entry and make sure basement window wells are clear, and save line-drying and yard work for Wednesday, Thursday and Tuesday.
- Secure the outdoors before Monday: winds may reach 25 mph. Tie down patio furniture, stow cushions and move trash bins against a wall.
October Household Checklist
- Drain and store garden hoses, and shut off outdoor water lines before the first hard freeze.
- Test the heating system on a mild day so any repair is not an emergency call.
- Reverse ceiling fans to spin clockwise on low to push warm air down.
In Season at the Market
Produce that is typically in season across much of the country in October includes apples, pumpkins, pears, cranberries and brussels sprouts. Buying what is in season usually means better flavor and lower prices, so plan a few of this week's meals around it.
