Bringing the heat (and dessert)! ????Residents of Eskaton Village Roseville had dinner and a show for yesterday’s Mardi Gras dinner, thanks to Director of Culinary Experience Michelle Edmondson. Seen here, Michelle prepares bananas foster, a classic New Orleans dessert with sautéed bananas, butter, brown sugar and cinnamon that is flambéed in rum and banana liqueur. More than delicious, last night’s dinner and dessert was absolutely dazzling. ? #CulinaryExperience #MardiGras #SeniorLiving #TeamEskaton

We ?? Kids Connection! During yesterday's Kids Connection activity, residents of Eskaton Village Grass Valley paired up with local schoolchildren and enjoyed a day of Valentine's themed arts and crafts. The young students joined their senior buddies in decorating wooden hearts and then got a calligraphy lesson in writing their names from an Eskaton resident. Supported by the Eskaton Foundation, Kids Connection is a program that fosters intergenerational friendships between Eskaton residents and local elementary schoolchildren. In addition to its educational component for young students, Kids Connection offers older adults with the opportunity to socialize, interact with younger generations, and make meaningful connections that uplift and enrich their lives.
