Sous Chef, Dan Cobb, hit it out of the park with this summer veggie soup!

After several residents came to me today asking about a particular menu item, I felt compelled to check it out.  Coconut Zoodle Soup sounds nice, right?  Dan Cobb was very busy preparing for the evening meal, but took the time to let me have a taste.  Refreshing coconut, chicken broth, lemon, cilantro, zucchini noodles, and a hint of curry paste are some of the flavors all working together making a delicious soup that is so appropriate for this breezy summer day!  I could go on and on about the amazing talent in the Ferris Hills/Clark Meadows kitchen, but today it's all about Dan Cobb and his Coconut Zoodle Soup!

Today we celebrated those who serve our residents with the greatest of care.  Our team of PCA's are the very best!  Several of our residents volunteered to serve ice cream to those who serve us.  This time, the PCA's were served and we served them first!  We honored them with special testimonials written by the residents along with artwork, and poetry.  Beth presented them each with certificates and they even paused to help a resident down the stairs making the moment even more special.  How fortunate we are to have this amazing team of care givers!

A visit with Bruce Smoller, MD, certified educator for both the Wine and Spirits Educational Trust and the Wine Scholar Guild

Dr. Smoller shared his passon for teaching about wine with Clark Meadows.  Our residents were enthusiastic participants as Bruce regaled us with his knowledge on wines from France and the various regions that produce the grapes that make the different varietals. It was a real treat for our residents and the staff were quite jealous.  The picture of Terry and myself was posed.  We did not imbibe!

Going above and beyond during National Assisted Living Week!

The final presentation during the National Assisted Living week was a "heartfelt" one on our heart day here at Clark Meadows.  We had recognized staff, and our program manager, and now it was time to recognize eight of our residents for the help that they offer to us and other residents.  Presented by Jody Wilbur....

" We have four men and 4 women who have gone above and  beyond to help make our assisted living experience the best it can be.  They've shown kindness, patience, and consideration for their neighbors and for the staff.  These folks have helped with managing the book cart, creating some of our programming, acting as ambassadors, helped with happy hours by singing, smiling and encouraging.  They help other residents by engaging them with fun conversation with jokes, laughter and singing.  The list goes on and on.  Your positivity and participation fulfill our lives and we thank you."

Thank you Mary, Bev, Margaret, Jane, Sam, Al G., Joe and Al J.!
