🍭✨ A Roald Dahl Day of Pure Imagination ✨🍭
To celebrate Roald Dahl’s birthday, our residents enjoyed a trip straight out of a storybook,
a visit to Mr Simm’s Olde Sweet Shoppe. With wide eyes and happy hearts, they rediscovered childhood favourites: Everton Mints, with their cool, refreshing twirl of sweetness; pear drops that pirouetted on the tongue; and sherbet lemons that fizzed and popped like tiny fireworks;
A huge thank you to David, our very own “Candy Man,” for showing us around his treasure trove of treats and sparking so many golden memories.
And just when we thought the day couldn’t get any sweeter, we entered the world of W***y Wonka himself, dipping strawberries and marshmallows into a cascading chocolate fountain — a scrumdiddlyumptious indulgence worthy of any chocolate-loving dreamer!
Much like Dahl’s stories, the day was sprinkled with Magic 🌟
