I don’t know about you, but I’ve been struggling to get in the holiday mood this year. Please tell me I am not alone. The Grinch seems like the perfect character as the mascot for the 2020 celebrations. We embraced the green guy and sent him out into Andover to visit. Many of you have been playing along and guessing where he is in the photos we’ve posted on the library Facebook page. (Haven’t played yet? Check it out here.) I know our staff had a blast taking the photos. We had a “Meet the Grinch Day” planned too, cancelled because of covid case increases. BAH! Humbug.
Not to let that deter our holiday spirit, we are giving away 29 Grinchy Goodie Bags this weekend. Have you entered yet? Hurry up! Enter here.
This year is just different, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be special. We poked around the internet and found a few Grinchy recipes that might cheer you up. How can you go wrong with green pancakes?
