We would like to take this opportunity to THANK all of the local lobster fisher-men who graciously donated lobsters to our residents! Thanks to this generosity, our residents were able to have fresh lobster
salad sandwiches and WOW did they love them! Those smiles were worth a million dollars!
What is New?
This spring we have introduced some new and exciting products for our resi-dents! When a new menu item is brought on board, we take it to our Resident Council to sample, get approval and then try it on the menu.
What was a hit? Our new tender and juicy boneless chicken wings (wings with-out bones?! Perfect!), tender Haddie Bites, Chicken in Tempura Batter and Gar-lic Fingers. Our residents loved these new tasty items! And for desserts; we tried a new Creamy Custard and Cinnamon Sugar Wedges. Who says pizza bread has to be used for pizza?! Our Director of Food Services and Cooks are always using their creativity in the kitchen. Check out our new dessert below:
Cinnamon Sugar Wedges in a Pumpkin Pudding
Spread soft pizza discs with butter, cinnamon and sugar.
Heat in oven until sugar is melted (just a few minutes so dough remains soft!) Cut into wedges.
Serve standing up in a bowl of homemade Pumpkin Pudding!
Enjoy!

Mealtimes at HVH At our last Resident Council meeting, it was discussed and primarily opted for, flipping our bigger meal from noon to supper time. With providing a very large breakfast, followed by the large main meal for lunch, many residents are too full to consume that meal (which contains most of their daily calories and protein). Due to this, many are quite hungry by supper time when the lighter meal is served. With residents’ input, we are looking at moving our largest meal to supper time. Benefits of this include: Improved satiety throughout the evening Less hypoglycemia with morning blood sugars Increased likelihood of consuming the large, main meal The ability to sleep in & have a late breakfast, without compromising intake of the larger meal Stay tuned for results of our residents’ votes! ~ Food Services Team
