GREETINGS FROM
THE KITCHEN !
Over the course of the
last two months the
Retirement kitchen has
been making a substantial
amount of deserts in
house. We hope you have
been enjoying them, as
much as we have enjoyed
preparing them for you.
In November we will be
celebrating National
Doughnut Day, enjoying a
smoothie bar as well as a
Wine & Cheese tasting and
a Chili cook-off!
Please join us on Tuesday’s
at 3pm in the café and
Thursday’s at 10am in
Thames.
“Culinary Quote of the Month”
2014Ai
DID YOU KNOW:
The symbol of the poppy is derived from,
“In Flanders Fields”, a poem by Canadian
Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae- but the
custom of wearing a symbolic poppy came
from Moina Michael, a YMCA worker who
was inspired by the poem and made a
personal pledge to wear the red poppy as
a sign of remembrance and for
“Keeping the faith with all who died”.
*LTC Family Council Lunch Meeting*

Department
With Christmas just around the corner, we are
starting to plan the lighting around the facility.
We will be putting lighting in the new LTC
courtyard as well as the 8th Ave and Highbury
courtyards. We hope this brings along good
weather and Christmas cheer. We will be
decorating the entrance planters with some
greenery and festive touches for our home!
A note on maintenance concerns, please
remember to inform a staff member so we can
get your repairs done in a speedy fashion.
You can always contact me via phone or stop
me if you see me in the hallway.
Thanks,
Glenna Grimmer
Director of Environmental
Services
