The New York Public Library will be closed from May 25 to May 27.
By Jonathan LondonHave you ever had a slice of cake or pie for lunch? I hate to admit it, but it is a guilty pleasure that I have partaken in numerous times.
Red Velvet, German Chocolate, Lemon Meringue and Strawberry/Rhubarb are just a few of my favorites. Next time you have lunch, have dessert first. The children in your life will get a kick out of mixing up the menu.

Make sure to stop and take a look at the old lunch boxes and artifacts from the Automat. Do not forget to pick up a complimentary recipe card for Pumpkin Pie.
Here are some booklists to help kickoff your "dessert for lunch" adventures.
