Thankful Rolls

Today I am grateful for my job.

We did activities inclined towards Thanksgiving including a special Happy Hour that began with a gratitude alphabet of things we are thankful for (at least one for every letter). I transposed that list onto paper and had a resident cut each into strips. Another resident covered the strip in aluminum foil and we then rolled that into a crescent biscuit. The results were "thankful rolls" with words like kindness and grandchildren snuck into each. Residents unfolded them and read them off before eating.

Using the same list we played the word guess game after drinks so residents filled in blanks for words like dessert and phrases like good music.

We also decorated the doors with turkeys. I wanted something unique so we used ribbon for the plumage. The results were beautiful.
