Monday Munchies with Mollie

As you may know, our library will begin construction this week. We (the royal we, of course) are very excited about it. And I never miss an opportunity to let patrons know of our soon-to-be new library.

Today a group of girls, around 5-7, decided to play with our toy kitchen set. I walked by and they stopped me. Of course I couldn't turn down plastic food. They were handing me donuts, cake, peas (no thanks), carrots (they needed salt), and apple pie complete with a wheel of cheese on top. I ate so much I was stuffed, just like Thanksgiving dinner. And that's when the gas bubbles started. I was burping and tooting. The girls were giggling non-stop. Every time they offered me more food, which I accepted, of course, the burps and toots would start all over again. I couldn't help it. I was so full! The Thanksgiving feast they prepared for me was amazing!

There were a few parents in the room when this went down. They were laughing while I played with the kiddos. Once I had the girls', and parents', attention, I explained how our library was going to have a real kitchen and we could make real food. The girls were so excited and dubbed me the best librarian! Best. Monday. Ever!
