Alas, I think the off-season has now begun. But for all the sorrow over the “closed” ice cream shops, there is an upside: it’s movie time at the library!

Last night the book aisles were packed with folks who had come to view a hilarious film about the behind the scenes making of Gilbert & Sullivan’s Mikado.

The series runs every Tuesday night until, well, spring. Before the movie, everyone clusters around the dessert table (last night homemade chocolate trifle and almond cake), loads up on goodies and coffee and tea, then settles in for the evening. Great fun!

Not to mention that I believe I have officially become a library rat. (No rodent comments, please.)
