🐾 Happy National Cat Day! 🐱💛

We know some of the best companions have four legs and whiskers.

Cats bring comfort, calm, and joy—making them purr-fect partners for seniors. Whether they’re curled up for a nap or quietly keeping you company, cats offer emotional support and companionship that truly enriches everyday life.

That’s why Brice Pointe will be a pet-friendly Life Plan Community, because home simply wouldn’t be complete without your furry family by your side.

🐾 Visit our website to see how Brice Pointe could be the perfect fit for you—and your feline (or canine) companion!

🍝✨ It’s National Pasta Day—let’s get saucy! ✨🍝
There’s nothing like a warm bowl of pasta on a crisp fall day, and at Brice Pointe, we know that good food brings people together—especially when it’s filled with seasonal flavors!

Celebrate with this comforting fall favorite:

🍂 Creamy Pumpkin Sage Pasta
Rich, cozy, and surprisingly heart-healthy!

Ingredients:

8 oz whole grain fettuccine or linguine

1 cup pure pumpkin purée

1/2 cup low-sodium vegetable broth

1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or low-fat milk)

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tbsp olive oil

1/2 tsp ground sage

Salt & pepper to taste

Fresh parmesan (optional)

Instructions:

Cook pasta according to package directions.

In a saucepan, sauté garlic in olive oil until fragrant.

Stir in pumpkin purée, broth, milk, and sage. Simmer 5–7 minutes.

Toss cooked pasta into the sauce. Add a little reserved pasta water if needed for creaminess.

Top with parmesan and cracked black pepper, if desired.

🎃 Creamy, savory, and fall-forward—just like the thoughtful lifestyle we’re planning at Brice Pointe.
