Elkhorn Jones Memory Care

05/26/2026

This Memorial Day, we gathered around the table to enjoy a comforting meal filled with warmth, tradition, and gratitude. Our residents were served tender, flavorful ribs paired with creamy mashed potatoes and sweet corn, a classic meal that brought smiles, conversation, and a sense of togetherness. From the rich, savory flavors to the comforting homemade feel, every plate was prepared with care as we honored the brave men and women who served our country. Moments like these remind us that sharing a meal can also mean sharing memories, stories, and appreciation for those who sacrificed so much. 🇺🇸❤️

When giving the choice to choose between a lemon and a lime our residents picked a Lemon, in honer of national lemon day, the color yellow won 🥇

With that said Residents may be more inclined to choose yellow lemons over green ones due to how the brain processes color. From a scientific standpoint, yellow is strongly associated with maturity, and sweetness, while green often signals underripeness or sourness. The human visual system is highly sensitive to warm colors like yellow, which stand out more clearly and can feel more inviting especially for older adults who may experience changes in contrast sensitivity
In memory

care settings, these visual cues become even more important, as residents often rely on simple, familiar signals when making choices. As a result, the bright yellow lemon is not only easier to recognize, but also more likely to be perceived as the "right" or more appealing option.
