Turkey Tuesday

 



It is again time to prepare for a 
new year of journaling. 
My 2024 Hobonichi has arrived!

It is always a surprise how 
small my A6 Hobonichi English Planner
starts out in the new year...
no wrinkled pages from
watercolor and pen, no
added thickness from tipped-in
pages or collages. You'd think
I would be used to it by now, 
after eight years using this Planner!

Pictured above, just a month and
a half left to go in the 2023 journal.
The 2024 journal, beneath it, has
"new" Tomoe River paper in it.
From what I can piece together from
on-line articles, a new company has
taken over the TR paper, using
new machinery, and a slightly different
method/recipe. Apparently the old
machinery was just worn out.  I'm 
hoping for a similar result with the 
new paper, but we shall see. Paper
quality does affect the ease/results
of art work quite a bit!

Even if you are not on Instagram, I believe you
can still view my posts on your computer
at this address, as my profile is Public.
Just click on the link above, and hopefully
my posts will come up.  (Tech challenged
senior here, trying to keep up!)

Also checking in with some old friends today
for T Tuesday,

featuring my mocha coffee in
the photo above. I love this Debbie Mumm
 snowman cup...I use it year-round!
It's a rainy Tuesday here in Ohio today, so
a warm beverage is a plus.



Wishing everyone who celebrates
Thanksgiving this week, a warm
and wonderful day with family
and friends!
