Yesterday was Valentine's and I thought what could be more romantic than a blind date. I was to meet my blind date at the Cameron Village Public Library. I was so excited! When I told my younger son, he expressed a bit of concern. I assured him it was quite okay.
The Librarians had created a novel activity called a Blind Date with a Book.
I love books, so I thought how romantic!
Sure enough just in the entrance to the Library was a collection of gift-wrapped books, in colorful Valentine's Day paper. Each book had a little synopsis, but no title. You had to unwrap the gift to see who or what your blind date was.
I notice that many of the books that the Librarians had selected seemed to have a theme of love, marriage, or relationships. How appropriate!
This is the "date" that I chose. |
I'm heading out of town for the weekend, and I'm taking my blind date with me. I may even fall a sleep with my blind date beside me. Thank you Librarians for a clever activity for Valentine's Day. And friends I hope you are not a bit disappointed, because you may have expected a different "blind date" for me. : )
