Continuing on with my post about monthly celebrations and awareness is February’s National Library Lover’s Month, and one that is not craft or paper and book related, National Snack Food Month.
You have surely noticed a theme with my posts on the Monthly Holidays or Daily celebrations, they are related to journaling, and paper themed crafts or celebrations.
National Library Lover’s Month is “Dedicated to the people who love whole buildings devoted to reading, housing, organizing, categorizing, finding, studying, and otherwise loving books” as says National Day Calender. I sadly have not stepped into a library in years, a sad thing as I am a bookworm, and an English Major. I have spent many hours in libraries browsing books, as well as researching while in College. And here is the really sad thing, there is a library just 3 doors down from where I work. Libraries offer so much for the community, and should be treasured. Do you have a library you go to? What is your favorite thing about your library?
Do you have children? What about checking out your library to see if they do story time? It’s something that when my little one is a bit older I’ll be looking into. He is 2 and enjoys looking at his books, but is not yet able to sit through a story. Maybe I’ll look into what I can get from the library, I don’t get to read much right now, but having a place for free books so I dont have to spend money would be really nice. My boyfriends Mom goes regularly to our local library as she really enjoys reading too, and she always comes home with a few new ones to read.
And I don’t know about you, but curling up with a good book, and a cup of coffee, tea or coco and a snack is one of my favorite ways to relax. National Snack Food Month celebrates snacking on healthy snacks beween meals. For me these snacks are not always healthy, but always tasty; how about you? Chocolate or chips or trail mix are some of my go to snacks.
Today is also national Chocolate Day, National Pizza day and Read in the Bathtub day. How perfect is that, a bath with a book and choclate, sign me up!
