March Book of the Month:
The Mole People
By Jennifer Toth
For book club this month, we read The Mole People which is a collection of stories about the lives of people living in the tunnels underground in New York City. It was a pretty amazing and hard-to-believe book. The author must have been pretty brave...or stupid...to go where she went and try get herself into situations she describes in the book. It's also sad to think there are real people living in the underground tunnels, that our world allows that.
We had fun eating Japanese food. Some of us tried suchi for the first time...me included. I actually didn't mind it...although I wasn't a fan of having to put the whole thing in my mouth all at once. We got to eat in a tea room and try all sorts of great food.
