New York Public Library



 Frances invited me to join her at the New York Public Library Open House on Sunday afternoon and it was such fun.



The splendid building was all decked out for a winter holiday reception with carolers, a klezmer band



a jazz band


wine and punch


and balloon animals too


Best of all were the children dressed in their party best


entranced by the moving statue - all white and immobile one moment -and alive the next.




and the juggler was magical.


The winners of the Jane in Winter giveaway are Ridgely and Debra. Please send me an email with your mailing address and the name you would like it inscribed to. (elizabethwix@hotmail.com)
I'll mail them out tomorrow.

  4. Wasn't it a grand afternoon, Elizabeth. This was no time for silence in the library...too many folks of all ages celebrating the season.

    Your photographs are terrific...really do capture what we saw. xo

  6. That was fun! It is great to see the amazement in the childrens faces. Congratulations to the Winners of your book. As I did not win it, I will order it, for sure, from Amazon - I just have to read it!
