Coconut Zoodle Soup! It's on the menu today!

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!

Personal Care Assistant Day!

These highly skilled, compassionate, reliable PCA's are the heart of Clark Meadows!

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!

"I'm a poet and didn't even know it!"

Congratulations to our Poets!  Please enjoy their work.

Ode to my Cart

Oh sturdy cart so faithful and true....what would I do without you?  Always full of appropriate supplies, so that no mess comes with a surprise!  Gloves, sprays, brushes and rags...not to forget, the many sized bags.  A broom, a bucket and handy mop, I can clean all day without a stop.  Add a license plate & a rubber ducky horn and wadda ya know, a housekeeper is born.

Winter View

White snow covers the winter world beyond my window, while soft streaks of vapor, yellow and red, stretch across the easterly sky.  We have a glimpse of God's orderly plan, of which we humans know only a tiny fraction.  How beautiful is all that we see before us!  Spring and Summer will arrive when they're due; The earth will continue to spin on its axis.  On some future day, I hope to meet my relatives, long-long gone, but eager to see me again.  That, too, will be a beautiful day!

Winter

Roses are red, so it is said, and violets are blue, I know that is true.  In upstate NY we all pop a cork: Winter is here.  Time for snowmen, snow angels, maple sundaes and pancakes, and the blessed virginity of new fallen flakes...Winter has come!

My Clark Meadows Family

Families are larger than nuclear and extended.  Families are the every day people in our lives.  Families are present every day, all year.  Families spend holidays together because they care.  To my everyday family, I wish you a Happy Valentines Day.
