DIXON — Our seniors enjoyed the annual Christmas gift exchange after a delicious pork chop luncheon. When we exchange gifts, each person can choose a pre-labeled gift (for man, woman, either) or take one, which someone else has picked. The most traveled gift was a pack of ten lottery tickets.  

We do appreciate our cook Diane and helper Becky; every meal is so tasty and served attractively. We of the “Jello generation” also enjoy the frequent varieties of Jello dishes provided. Do plan to join us in the upcoming year, or before. We have dinner on Mondays at 5 p.m. and lunch each noon on Thursdays. Take-outs are also available. Any age is welcome. Bring a neighbor or someone who would like a meal and a drive.

The menu for next week:

•  Thursday, Dec.  26: meatloaf

•  Monday, Dec. 30: ham, potato casserole 

•  Thursday, Jan. 2:  vegetable soup, turkey sandwich

•  Monday, Jan. 6: Salisbury steak

•  Thursday, Jan. 9: brunch for lunch - ham, veggie omelet

We also appreciate the seasonal table toppings made by Delene Tufly and we thank Marie Ardis for decorating the dining room and providing cards for various occasions. Faye Pitts is still in extended care, where she says her broken bones are healed and now she’s trying to grow some muscles. This is a good time to think of those around us and to share a visit, a card or just call to keep in touch. ‘Tis the season for so many things ... and caring for others is an important one.
