A nice visit

gift basket


fruit and cheese snack

Husband M and I visited my uncle who has dementia in his senior's home last week. I coordinated the visit while making sure his partner would be there. She visits the home 5 days out of 7 and is very attentive to his needs. When I asked, she told me that a good gift might be some cashew nuts, so I made the gift basket pictured above. It has a large bag of unsalted cashews, I hope he will enjoy them.

It so happened that there would be a little concert that afternoon. A talented gentleman played old Irish and Scottish songs on his harmonica to entertain the crowd. We were served coffee with some fruit and cheese, the perfect snack. Before long, it was time to go, but it was nice to see how my uncle was progressing (or not) and we enjoyed the visit and the music.
