Loving these new business cards from Moo where I customized the back of the card on each one with Free to Use and Reuse images from the Library of Congress. ♥️

I love when a library lesson works with the classroom curriculum so well that teachers ask for it again the next year! We started in that lesson today. 🙂

Our building does a staff breakfast most Fridays. Today, me and a few of my colleagues hosted. We had fruit and casseroles and I broke out my favorite pancake recipe to make a trio of options for the staff.
