At almost the last minute of my trip to Paris I managed to sneak in a short visit to a Moleskine store, and was caught by surprise by their new Looney Tunes collection. I’m not a rabid Looney Tunes fan, but the Bugs and Wile E. Coyote were too well-designed to pass, and I’m curious enough about any limited edition that couples Tweety, drawing pencils and a sketchbook to give it a spin. These all obviously come with a Moleskine premium, but if you’re remotely into Looney Tunes, I’d recommend them.


I’ve only opened the Wile E. Coyote notebook at the moment, though I have seen the others open in the shop and they are as tremendously well designed as the Wile E. Coyote one is. The endpapers are so colourful and a lot of fun, and they work with the cover design so well.



It comes with stickers of course:

And a cute B-Side band:

Another pleasant surprise was a new cover colour to the Moleskine Two-Go editions, green. The Two-Go notebooks have thicker paper than regular Moleskines, and they’re smaller than large Moleskines, with one side of the page blank and the other side ruled. I use them as my reading journals, and highly recommend them, especially if you were at all fond of the Arts notebooks of Field Notes’s “Arts and Sciences“.

Preparing food for the Mafseket meal for Yom Kippur. Chicken soup is obviously a must.

Watched the 1st “Iron Man” movie again today, and I forgot how funny it was.

I’m currently a third of the way through Italo Calvino’s “If on a Winter’s Night a Traveller” and I love his descriptions of reading experiences.

On the left, Field Notes Three Missions, started on the 25th of August and finished yesterday. On the right, Field Notes Costal, which I’m starting on today. This is the fastest I’ve ever filled a Field Notes, ever, mostly because it was such a fun edition to batter up and use.

I found a box of Tic Tacs in my drawer at work, an unexpected little treat.
As you can see, the Field Notes signature sketch book isn’t 100% fountain pen friendly (there’s some feathering), but it’s good enough in a pinch.
