Are you ready for the weekend? I definitely am. No major plans other than reading, relaxing and home stuff. So I thought I’d share some things that are bringing me joy lately:
Happinez the magazine. Just discovered this monthly publication and I loved the photography and variety of articles. A very soothing read.
A new pen. I also bought some new ink which I was excited to show you until I discovered they sent me the wrong ink. I’m sure I can easily exchange it and can’t wait to show you the one I wanted. I only use black ink in my text-only journal but I have been thinking of branching out. Oh and I now have five Lamy pens. I’m seriously addicted to these.
Chocolate Daisies and Rock Roses. We planted a few this Spring and have finally seen some blooms. They are so pretty and just make my day.
Hearing the news that next year there will be non-stop flights to Germany from Austin! Of course I wonder what the fares and times are like. Well, there’s plenty of time before our next trip.
Finally, wearing a pair of red heels. I do love these vintage inspired shoes.
Have a wonderful weekend you guys and more bookish talk soon.
Red is so vibrant! I love the shoes (I clicked on the link) and would take them in any color!
I love Lamy fountain pens! I have a Safari like yours only in blue. I also have three vistas. Did you know you can get different nibs for them including three different sizes of stub/calligraphy nib? They are super easy to change too and so much fun to play with. Goulet is great and they will give you no problem if you want to exchange your ink. I get ink from them all the time. Lamy makes great ink and if you are looking to branch out in colors their green is lovely. Goulet just began carrying Lamy roller balls that you can refill and I am very tempted to get one.
And those shoes, super cute!
I will have to look for that magazine–it looks really interesting! Cute shoes–I could never wear them–I need to stay firmly on the ground since I am a klutz, but if I could I would totally buy a pair! Have a great weekend–I will hopefully just be reading, taking a few nice long walks (though it is going to be really hot and humid), watching a movie I borrowed from the library (Death Comes to Pemberly) and my Sunday night Poldark viewing….I want to maybe stitch, too, if I can manage it–sometimes having linen on my lap when it is so warm is not much fun.
Good for you on finding ways to relax!
I am just able to watch TV right now. There are major renovations going on inside my building. The smells & dust are doing me in!
Hoping to read soon.
