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!

You're a Grand Old Flag...

You're a Grand Old Flag...

...forever in peace may you wave.

Celebrating Flag Day at the community has always been a very important event.  We are so fortunate to have many residents, particularly those who have served in the military, that are excited to participate in the program each year.  This year Retired U.S. Navy veteran Kathy C. led the Pledge of Allegiance and also spoke about what the flag means to her.  Coast Guard veteran Bern O. shared a poem that he wrote.  Gerry S.spoke about a tradition involving the flag during his time serving in the U.S. Air Force.

Katherine McGraff, Lifestyle Coordinator, sang the Star Spangled Banner as those in attendance joined in.  "You're the emblem of the land I love, the home of the free and the brave!"
