Teen Area and Balcony View





Library Office



Here's the office manager's remodeled office. HNI desk and purple wall. M.H.

Wallpaper






Wallpapering done, but I need to buy some tan paint and paint the wall between the shower and the closet. I just didn't want to do the whole room in the pattern and I thought it would be hard to paper around the narrow edge. Because I'm in the bathroom, Nibbles expects to be fed. How do you like the pattern of the curtain with the pattern of the paper?

Thick frost

Woke up Saturday to the strangest frost. I think it had to have been frost because there was no snow on the sidewalks. It is the thickest frost I've ever seen - just like snowflakes all stuck together. The woods were solid white, with just the trucks and major branches of the trees showing dark. It was more of a thick fuzzy frost than a delicate one. Very beautiful morning.

Sledding

M and S out in the snow.




Chinese New Year




Yesterday we got together with our friends and made eggrolls - 250 of them! It was like a factory. One person cooking and the rest of us chopping. Then 3 people rolling and 1 frying. Turns out E is an expert eggroll roller. Look at the comparison photo of her neat one and a regular one. I have over 100 eggrolls in the freezer. Costed out at $.67 a piece.

Reference Area

The study rooms and the microfilm readers. And the pop machine that is surely causing librarians to roll over in their graves.
I don't have photos of the YA area yet as they didn't order enough shelving, so we're waiting for some to come in. It's a a very popular area and full of people after school.
