🔥🌶️ What an incredible day at Celebration Villa of Lakemont Farms! Our 1st Annual Chili Cook-Off was a spicy success, and we couldn’t have done it without the amazing participation and support from everyone involved. 🎉
A huge shoutout to our talented chili cookers: Blakely, our Director of Life Enrichment, took home the 1st place trophy with her mouth-watering chili! Mario, our culinary maestro, snagged 2nd place, while Dan from Amedisys cooked up a storm to earn 3rd place. 🌟
Our esteemed panel of judges—Sequoia, our Director of Nursing, Ben from Oasis, and Rene from Powerback Therapy—had the tough job of tasting all the delicious entries. 🍲
A special thank you to our wonderful guests: Kelly from Strabane Trails, Phillip with Allegheny Valley Transfer Co, Mackensi with Suncrest Hospice, and Steve from Landmark Home Health. It was great to see so many residents, fellow co-workers, and families join in the fun!
We’re already looking forward to next year’s cook-off. Until then, keep those taste buds ready and those chili recipes simmering! 🌶️👩🍳👨🍳
