Ready for a dunking

I received my first moleskine for Christmas. It wasn't marked a gift so I opened it already, oops. I'd try to be sorrier if this didn't mean I can use it to take my research notes home with me.



My last research notebook was pretty but didn't stand up to the kind of hard usage I'm known for: every kind of bag, taking notes while pumping milk, a weekend under the car seat before it gets refound, reviewing the contents in the bathtub... I think this one will. I've wanted one ever since I saw Nathan's, but didn't dream they were reasonable until Michelle's post.

Just to prove I'm ready for the other sort of dunking she mentions, I also took a photo of the tea area Matt recently set up for me. (Look how lost his poor little coffee pot looks!) Wish it was this clean now!

Oh I have 6 tins black tins with leaf green labels lined up on my counter, too...anyRose Congou?...so this made me smile!

May your Moleskine survive all...

Of course there's Rose Congou. When there isn't Rose Congou, it's time to order tea again. That time is actually approaching -- I'm more than half out. One tin of Rose Congou lasts me about exactly three months. So I order quarterly!

I love the tea area! (Unsurprising, I know.) :)
