DIXON — According to the National Groundhog, spring is on its way. There are some signs around, as I spotted a robin drinking from a birdbath and there are tiny pussy willows just peeping out. I also found three tiny pink primroses popping up from a very protected spot in a flowerbed.
Thanks go to six little members of the Dixon Preschool and their teacher. They visited during our lunch, sang “Rudolph the Red Nosed
Reindeer” (red for Valentine’s Day) and left some decorated homemade hearts for our table decor.
There’s still time to make reservations for the Dixon School Ski Club
Valentine’s Day dinner this Thursday. Call the school at (406) 246-3566 by Wednesday, Feb. 13. Come single or with a sweetie or friend for a roast beef dinner served by students with special Valentine treats for all.
It was good to see Marie Ardis back at the center. She was happily surprised by a visit from her son Robert from Kalispell. Hopefully the worst of the cold and flu season is leaving our area. It’s hit a lot of us who usually don’t get sick in the winter.
February’s meals will be:
• Thursday, Feb. 14: roast beef
• Monday, Feb. 18: chicken broccoli Alfredo
• Thursday, Feb. 21: Tilapia (fish)
• Monday, Feb. 25: pork roast
• Thursday, Feb. 28: baked chicken
Remember, meals are served at noon on Thursdays and at 5 p.m. each Monday. You may take a meal home or to a neighbor. A meal would make a good Valentine’s Day treat this Thursday.
