 We decided to cancel our presentation tonight (Tuesday, February 12th) with Ken Zurski on his Unremembered book due to the ice/snow/rain weather situation. We do have his book at the library available for checkout and we also have his book, The Wreck of the Columbia. Look for them on the New Adult Materials bookcase right by the front checkout desk. And I will provide a link to Ken's Unremembered blog again.

Today Lyssa (and her friend) made lunch for us librarians. The Cookbook Club was not able to meet this month for Italian night, so Lyssa felt bad about that and decided that the librarians should have their own lunch. So, we all ate shells with cheese and sauce that were delicious and bread with butter. And Ann brought in Valentine's cookies for us, too! I feel very blessed for the kind and thoughtful people that I work with!  A reminder about the Alzheimer's Class this Wednesday!   Check out Ken Zurski's online blog about people and events that are Unremembered! We think you will find it very interesting!
