ICE CREAM TASTING- With the weather being hot i decided to do an ICE CREAM tasting event. I purchased 7 different flavoured ice creams (tubs), I put a spoonful of each flavour into little plastic disposable shot glasses ( £2 for 40 from Sainsburys)
The Residents really enjoyed it and gave their verdict of each flavor. I finished the tasting off with a sorbet and a frozen yoghurt
We have an ice cream testing scheduled. We are making our own ice cream. I plan on them having taste of a cheap ice cream, a mid priced & expensive price ice cream. then ask about the homemade ice cream. We did this with chocolate & opinions varied, but it was not over whelming with respect to the expensive chocolate. trying to do this with seasonal items. example did prep of cucumbers, variety of apples & peaches. it always then wraps back to their own cooking preps!
I just love love love this site - each time I'm glued to the many and awesome ideas to engage with our seniors. I recently downloaded some of the crossword puzzles and these seniors are fabulous to work with. That is just the tip of the iceberg. In this new chapter of my life, as semi-retired, I am so enjoying my time with seniors and watching them light up; I feel I've found a new niche. It's extremely gratifying. As to the cost of membership, it came out of my pocket - I rationalised that it was only about $3/month, less than many magazines. So keep up the GREAT work!!! Thanks again Golden Carers!!!!!
