Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Dining Rooms at the nursing home are decorated with bright colors. Tables accommodate two; four or six residents with waitress service for each table. Elderly people prefer hot soup with meals and a sweet desert such as pie or cake. Portion sizes are kept small because people's appetites decrease as they get older.
