Weird Food Pairings?!

Wine, fruit, juice, ice cream! YUM!

So, I'm telling tails out of school.  Our residents often get chatting in the living room about ideas for our socials.  One of our residents thought it might be fun to do unusual food pairings.  They didn't expect us to actually follow through.  When our Program Manager came into the living room with a bag of Baby Ruth Bars and a squeeze bottle of mustard they were astounded!  I came on the scene late wondering what they were all laughing about.  Everyone was giving it a go and enjoying the strange combination of sweet and spicy.  That was just the beginning.  Our Nurse Coordinator said, "game on" and she proposed the following week that we try pickle and peanut butter sandwiches!  The next week our Case Manager suggested doritos and ice cream!  Today, before our happy hour Melissa served up ice cream with wine and fruit!  Rave reviews all around the room!

Tai-Chi started this morning at Ferris Hills

Today was the first day of Tai-Chi and fourteen residents joined in to check it out.  Julie Charles, a Dining Services Associate, and the class instructor, has studied Tai-Chi for 20 years; two of which she lived in China.  She explains that "Tai-Chi is a relaxed martial art that is excellent for your flexibility, balance and your overall health."  One of the participants stated that this class "looks like it's going to be wonderful!." 

Interested?  We invite other residents to join in the fun every Friday morning at 10 am in the Vista Lounge.
