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!

Happy 100th Birthday!

Mary "Bernice" Frame celebrated her 100th birthday on Friday, April 22nd.  She grew up on a farm in Victor, NY and enjoyed playing with the neighbor children and chasing the chickens!  Her grandfather would pick them up in his horse and buggy and drop them off at the school on Main Street in Victor.  Bernice attended hairdressing school and worked in Rochester for awhile.  She eventually took a job in Victor as a switchboard operator where she was happy to be able to walk to work.

Together with her sister, they loved to dance, and attended every dance they could.  Her brother in law set her up with his cousin, Mark, and the rest was history.  They were married in 1947 at St. Patrick's Church in Victor.  They had five children and they all grew up in Victor.  A very exciting time for Bernice, was when she met President Reagan at a White House Christmas Party.  Bernice will also be featured on the Today Show's Smucker's Celebration of her 100th birthday.

We are happy to have been a part of her 100th birthday celebration here at Clark Meadows.  When asked what the secret to making it to 100 was, she said simply "just be a good person."
