Today was "Freaky Fun" day at our local library. We are participating in our library's summer reading program and on Thursdays they are having special activities to do in conjunction with the summer reading program. Todays activities were sponsor by our local children's museum.
The kids got to make slim, make a pig's lung inflate and deflate. They got to make rattle snake eggs, witness some optical illusions, play with bugs, and watch a chemical reaction between ammonia and PH paper. It was a good hour at the library. In addition to the fun, seeing that it is Dairy Month, a local 4-H group was there raffling off a cooler of dairy items. To enter I just had to write my name on a piece of paper and be at the library at the time of the raffle.
The kids and I were in the back room making slim. We just finished up and decided to go see who won the raffle. As we were leaving the back room, Maryanne our children's librarian, said. "Nikki, Nikki _________." To which I replied "Yes?". (It's a good thing I have a good relationship with the children's librarian). Maryanne "You won the cooler of dairy!, I'll let them know you are still in the building!"
Maryanne was a few steps in front of us, but got there to tell them I was still in the building. They then presented me with the cooler and took our pictures for the local newspaper. They took Superstar's and Web-princess's name as well seeing they were in the picture with me.
So we won the dairy cooler which contained:
I have to run to the store either tonight or tomorrow. I can use the sour cream and Mexican cheese for tacos. If I get some bagels we can use up the cream cheese. (Not much else I can do with strawberry cream cheese). Not exactly sure what to do with the shredded mozzarella cheese? Do you have any suggestions?

Make a pizza with the mozzarella or make a baked ziti (you'll need ricotta cheese for that and some paremesan or romano too--I can give you a ziti recipie if you need it.)
