Senior moments at the Newcastle Senior Center
DOROTHY’S DABLINGS/ Senior Citizen happenings
Hello Newcastle Seniors! I hope all of you are having a good week so far.
The Newcastle Senior Center would like to welcome our new cook, Esne Pesicka. Esne grew up in South Africa and attended two years of culinary school there. She loves making beautiful American dishes. Her son, Ryan, visited us on Friday.
In the few years I have been attending, we have had our share of wonderful cooks. Betty Jetty is also still with us. She is fantastic on the salad bar. We just can’t say enough about our girls in the kitchen.
A big thanks to Paul and Sue Boone for the donation of the beautiful hand crafted Christmas items belonging to Sue’s mother, Nina Fraser. They will be displayed and treasured. They are packed away right now awaiting the Christmas season but I am told they really are a treasure and very beautiful.
