Celebrating Thanksgiving at Ashwood Manor by Breanne Woodley
At Ashwood Manor, we promote resident choice and allow the residents to decide the holiday meal selection. This year our residents have requested our Red Seal Chef’s cook Roast Turkey with Gravy and Cranberries, Traditional Herb Stuffing, Mashed Potatoes, Roasted Maple Butternut Squash and Dinner Rolls with Pumpkin Pie a la mode with Apple Pie Ice Cream. Our 2nd choice is Pineapple Honey Glazed Smoked Ham, Potatoes Au Gratin and Green Bean Casserole with Assorted Dessert Cart. We are fortunate to have such beautiful grounds to see the seasonal colours, the falling leaves and the deer peeking in our windows. The Residents and Staff at Ashwood Manor would like to wish you and your family a very Happy Thanksgiving.
“Fall has always been my favourite season. The time when everything bursts with its last beauty, as if nature had been saving up all year for the grand finale.” Lauren DeStefano Harvestfest kicked off the fall celebrations in Lambeth and Ashwood Manor was thrilled to take part. Ashwood Manor had the straw bails a plenty, the pumpkins were nestled, the scarecrows were smiling, the fall garden flags were blowing, the corn stalks were hung and the Harvestfest signs were standing proudly. Thanksgiving is such a meaningful time of the year to Ashwood Manor. We invite our families and friends to come and break bread and join us at the table. At Ashwood Manor, we try to recreate as many traditions our residents have. Bringing out the festive tablecloths and resident made centerpieces, listening to music, chatting with family and friends, playing games, reminiscing and lots and lots of laughter. We host lots of entertainers, pumpkin painting, crokinole tournaments, a country drive to see the leaves changing colour, apple picking, our baking club resumes, hot chocolate and hot apple cider socials and our new tradition of creating our Thanksgiving tree to share our thanks and gratitude. At Ashwood Manor, we also take this time to remember our friends who we have lost and be thankful for the wonderful memories and how they have made an impact on our lives.
