“Fountain Pens” Cedar Park, 2022

On the right side of the photo are my three go-to pens, including my newest pen, the Pearl White Pilot Cavalier. I love it so much! It writes smoothly, is slim yet comfortable, and the color is beautiful.

On the left side of the notebook are a bunch of disassembled pens which I just cleaned and will give away. Most are inexpensive Jinhao pens which are fine, but they just don’t spark joy for me. The Sailor Fude (gold) is one that I may keep because the nib is unique in my collection, but the rest I will be saying goodbye to. Thank you for your service!

“Spicy Chicken” Cedar Park, 2022

I’ve tried a few different “fast casual” spicy/hot chicken dishes, but my wife cooked a crispy fried chicken with spicy sauce tonight and it blew all of those other chicken dishes away. A few pieces of these, miso soup, and a bowl of rice are all I need!

“Above the Clouds” 2022

I’m the one who loves to peer out the airplane window. I mean, I don’t get to see the earth from up here very often and it still blows me away. Yes, I’ll take the window seat every time!

“Boarding” Long Beach, 2022

Anyways, Koa and I have returned home to Austin after a long weekend in Southern California. It was a fun trip!

“Wordle with Drinks” Hermosa Beach, 2022

Wordle is so fun, and now almost my entire family is playing and sharing. This afternoon I went for a drink at Tower 12 with my brother and his wife, and I taught my brother how to play. But I was most happy that we have gotten my mom to play (and she’s really good!) too. 😆
