Krimble’s Bedtime Stories
Participatory experience
An in-house, on-demand bedtime story service offered to friends, family, and aquaintenances. The central part of the menu reads “Your story of choice on demand is just a phone call away. I read for trade, food, & goodwill. Dearest sweet friend, I am so excited to read for you. What a wonderful thing it is to see a familiar face just before bedtime. Peruse this here menu and pick out something tasty. Try something new or old, whatever looks good. Please also keep in mind that these things take a while to cook, so you’ll want to order 24hrs in advance. Don’t forget to leave a key under the mat!
