Jared and I made a quick trip to the book store last night. As we were headed to the checkout counter I ran across these Moleskine notebooks. I couldn’t resist picking up a three pack. You see, supposedly guys like Hemingway and Van Gogh used them to jot down their ideas and sketches. Now that sounds like good company to me. I have to admit, I’m slightly obsessed with notebooks. They have to be the right kind you know, good looking with nice paper. I’m always on the lookout for the perfect pad of paper, and these Moleskins might fit the bill – they are handmade, the perfect size, and they look pretty chic. The ones I bought have graph paper in them, which I adore. It takes me back to my childhood when I’d do my math work on a big white piece of graph paper. I feel extra inspired jotting down ideas in my new notebooks. The best part is, since they came in a three pack, I can have one at work, one at home and one in my purse. It’s pretty geeky to get so giddy about such a silly thing (I’m pretty sure Jared thinks it is nuts), but I just can’t help myself.
