Activities of the day included an American quiz, and appropriate songs such as “Dixie” and “Yankee Doodle Dandy” were sung. The residents' baking group enjoyed making Manhattan maple roll and baked Alaska. The menu included American half pounders and New York City hot dogs, followed by Mis­ sissippi mud pie.
