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.

The Secret to the Ferris Hills/Clark Meadows Molasses Cookies has been Revealed!

Patrick has a passion for baking and it shows in everything he does!

When the calendar says, "Baking Demo: Cookies with Patrick," folks gather around.  Today, Patrick Boylan, a baker at Thompson Senior Living Communities, shared his family recipe for the favorite molasses cookies!  Patrick did his training at Le Cordon Bleu in New Hampshire and has quite some skills in the baking department.  He demostrated how he assembles a batch of the molasses cookies and while he prepared the dough in his very own orange kitchenaid mixer (a gift from his Mom) he told us about the baked goods he prefers to make in our kitchen.  He loves to decorate cakes and cookies.  One of his other family recipes that he prepares for the residents is a raspberry cheesecake.  He enjoys baking and decorating wedding cakes and says that his passion came from his mother's love of baking.  it was a special treat to meet one of our talented cooks and to hear some of his personal story.  Thank you Patrick!

Poppy

The Flower of Remembrance

Making artificial poppies is a long-standing tradition and today we all pitched in to help the local Veterans Affairs assemble poppies. Close to 400 poppies were assembled and we had a good time sharing stories and remembering our own experiences with the symbolic poppy.
