Mindy Kaling confirms Oprah gives the most insane baby gifts ever
Mindy Kaling
But when you're friends with Oprah Winfrey  things get a little more epic. Just ask  Mindy Kaling   who welcomed  her  first child  daughter Katherine  in December.
"I got a call from my assistant.  She  said  'Oprah's assistant contacted me   she 'd like to drop off a present.' I'm thinking  that's so nice  like  (it's) probably flowers. I had a kid  I'm a single mom. That's really nice Oprah remembered "  Kaling  told USA TODAY on Sunday  sitting with Winfrey and Reese Witherspoon  her Wrinkle in Time co-stars.
"Two men are going to be coming to your house  they said  with a U-Haul truck "  Kaling  continued.
"All you want in life is to hear that two men in a U-Haul truck are coming to your house because Oprah sent them " said  Kaling . "I was supposed to go to work that day (but I was like)  I gotta be here."
What Oprah-endorsed wonder awaited the newborn? "They arrived with a hand-carved bookcase  prettier than any professional dollhouse you had ever seen that contained a hundred of the classic essential books in children's literature " said  Kaling . "And I held my baby up to  it  and I said  'Did you see what Miss Winfrey did for you?'"
"Now it only looks like a beautiful castle " deadpanned  Kaling .
"It's the most amazing gift " said  Kaling .
