Today we visited the Maido stationery shop at Mitsuwa Marketplace in Costa Mesa. They had such a great selection of fountain pens and inks, but I’m proud to say I showed some restraint and didn’t buy anything – I have more than enough pens already! Still, it was fun to browse.
I just grabbed book four of Becky Chambers’ Wayfarers series from the library. These books are amazing — I highly recommend them!
Before heading back to school for the semester, my son requested one more meal: spaghetti and meatballs. It’s been a family favorite for two generations, and I love making it for everyone. I’m glad it’s still a hit!
Bay headed back to school today, making Mariko and me empty-nesters for the next few months! With Koa in California until April, it’s just the two of us for about three months. Missing both of the kids already!
With a cold front rolling in this evening, I decided to squeeze in one last warm ride. Kiki and I took the scenic route to Sa-Tén for some quality coffee (try the “Ohayo”!) and Kindle time. It was both relaxing and rejuvenating. I don’t venture out much, but I enjoyed it so much that I’m thinking I should make it a habit.
