Family tradition brews love
Irish coffee. It’s the sweet, warm taste of family tradition for
Diane and Gail Kristensen. The St. Patrick’s Day celebratory
tradition began shortly after the couple married in 1961.
“Since Diane’s birthday is March 17, it just seemed
appropriate to join in with the St. Patrick’s Day festivities,”
says Gail.
The birthday tradition extended its Irish flair, as Diane, who
always has been a collector of fine china, added a Shelly
Company shamrock piece to her collection each year. By
the 1980s, her ever-expanding collection of shamrock china
allowed for an increase in their party invitation list. And, of
course, they shared their love of Irish coffee.
How to make Gail and Diane’s Superb Irish Coffee
1. Fill mug about 2/3 full of
hot, dark roast coffee.
2. Add sugar cubes and/or
brown sugar. Stir slightly.
3. Add 1/2 to 1 ounce, as
desired, Irish Whiskey and/or
Bailey’s Irish Cream.
4. Top with a dollop of freshly
whipped cream.
5. Top with a shake of
cinnamon dust and a drizzle of
crème de menthe.
6. Serve with scones with
Devonshire cream or soda
bread.

the process. “I was excited to see my ceramic piece after it was fired in the kiln,” says Helen, who joined other
residents for an art class on making the eggs. Life Enrichment/Wellness Director Randy Austin taught the group
how to use packaging string to create unique designs. “I love doing ceramics and creating different pieces for
my home.” says Helen.

{COLOR}FULL Living—How
does your garden grow?
Master gardeners are some of the
most passionate, knowledgeable, and
committed people I have ever met. They
spend hours learning all the pros and cons
of which plants need to go where. They
assess soil, sun, and shade needs as well
as overall balance for the environment
and success for the garden. They dig in
and plant—usually in their own terrain
and often in the community—for a variety
of causes and commitments that serve
neighborhoods, cities, citizens, and
wildlife and environmental goals. ...

3. CAPTURING DELIGHT{FULL} MOMENTS
The Greig Chorus performed in The All Saints Chapel to a full crowd of 60-plus residents and
guests. Named after the Norwegian composer and pianist Edvard Greig, various members of
the group have been performing since 1936. For their Touchmark performance, they performed
songs in Norwegian and Swedish as well as English. Touchmark resident Garrit Van Den Top
(pictured third from right, back row) is part of the group.
