"Wear it Pink" is an annual event that invites people to wear pink to show their support for breast cancer awareness and research.  Ferris Hills marked the day with a Ladies' Tea.

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!

Jockey Claire was also Bartender Claire for this fun event!  Mint Juleps, wine, sodas, and beer were served with pulled pork sandwiches and deviled eggs.  As tradition would have it, we all sang "My Old Kentucky Home," and as I began to describe the events of our own version of this time honored horse race, a last minute entry was announced and in trotted Claire mounted on her trusty steed.  The crowd went wild and the party began with laughter and fun!

A Scenic Excursion to The Finger Lakes Boating Museum

A Scenic Excursion to The Finger Lakes Boating Museum

Antique Boats, a beautiful day, South end of Keuka Lake, and Ice Cream!!

I caught this crew as they returned from an excursion to the Finger Lakes Boating Museum on the South end of Keuka Lake just outside of the village of Hammondsport.  As they got off the bus I heard "so interesting" and "we learned so much" and "what a beautiful scenic tour!"  Patti Schultz, tour guide and bus driver, said to me, "you have got to go!"  The museum is filled with beautiful antique boats and murals.  The collection of boats are all tied to the Finger Lakes Region and it's located in the historic Taylor Wine Company's main building.  After spending time in the museum, the crew boarded the bus for a drive back by way of Mitchellsville and Prattsburgh (Patti is great at finding the most beautiful routes on our excursions). They stopped in Naples for ice cream/lunch at Lynny Lou's. Then, they continued the scenic drive home going on the High Road on 64, then State Route 21, and home to Ferris Hills.  A great day spent in the Finger Lakes Region!
