This week, our residents at Oaklands House embraced National Chocolate Week with all the enthusiasm and deliciousness you could imagine! From the moment the rich, warm aroma of melting chocolate filled the air, everyone was drawn to the kitchen, eager to dive into some chocolatey fun. Working together to melt, stir, and pour, our residents enjoyed both the process and the reward—savouring every bite of their carefully crafted chocolate treats!
The day was filled with nostalgic stories of favourite childhood chocolate bars and friendly debates over the perfect fillings—mint or orange? Laughter filled the room as they shared classic chocolate jokes, the favourite being, “What kind of chocolate do they sell at the airport?” (Yes, you guessed it—”plane” chocolate!)
Hands-on activities like this bring more than just tasty results; they keep minds sharp, foster social connections, and bring a touch of sweetness to everyone’s day. These moments of joy, creativity, and shared laughter create lasting memories and remind us all of the importance of coming together.
There’s truly nothing like a day of chocolate and good company to lift spirits and create bonds. Thank you to everyone at Oaklands House for making this celebration so memorable—we’re already looking forward to more sweet moments together!
