I’m watching this on Black Friday from the Berkshires where the family has gathered for Thanksgiving. Congrats on the condo. I’d love hearing about the stationary stores in Boston. I was able to buy a pen at Appleboom before they closed.
The line up of future videos is AMAZING! I don't know about you, but my pens for planning and pens for journaling are different. So maybe top ten of these two categories? Top ten inks, I cannot wait for that! Top ten specialty nib grinds? if you were to go to journal at a coffee shop, what are the top things that would be in your bag? PLus all the ideas you put out sound so fun! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours, Lori!
Glad you found Rifle Paper Co. They have really neat stuff. I would like the book club. Maybe we could choose some non-fiction or American history. Boston sounds fun.
I chose a King of the Night when I visited the Fountain Pen Hospital in New York earlier this month, it's my first Esterbrook and I'm very happy with it - it looks terrific and writes so smoothly. I also picked up a MB149 from the Montblanc boutique on Madison Avenue, so it was a great visit to NYC for me. I could have bought them in London, but I like doing as you do, and getting them when visiting the US has given them additional significance to me.
You have some great things from your haul. I had forgotten about the Rifle Co. I had seen it previously and they have some great designs and gift items. I think your wall paper idea for the bookshelf is a great idea. I'm very excited to see the chronicles from your Boston adventures. My sister went to college and Boston and lived there in the North End and it was such a fabulous place to visit. I was telling her that we should do a long weekend in Boston with our kids and go to eat at all our favorite restaurants and see the city. I think our teenage and pre-teen kids would love it as it's a great city to walk and take the T. I have a white elephant holiday party at work coming up with guys and girls. Do you have any suggestions on what would be good for around $25/$30? I'll be looking forward to your fountain pen destash!
That’s a beautiful Aurora! I also find Rickshaws too colourful, but yours is gourgous. And I can’t wait to see that Scribo when it finally arrives. ❤Appelboom is great.
Congratulations Lori on your new place! I love your Rickshaw Sinclair so much I’ve been hunting to find a seller here in the UK that sells the Sinclair but no luck. Also LOVE the book club idea, sign me up immediately ❤
That is so exciting about your new Boston condo! I was in Boston today and thought how I really need to get out of the suburbs more often; it's invigorating to spend the day there with so much more to do and see. I really want to read more in the new year and of course have thought about keeping a notebook / log / journal, but I am not convinced I'll stick with it yet. 😅
Congratulations on the new condo! I miss shopping on Newbury Street. Lucky you! I have been looking for a virtual book club to join. Can't wait to hear more. Wishing you and everyone here a very happy Thanksgiving.
Oh I'm so glad you like the idea. I've never seen one (or looked for one) but I thought we could have a lot of fun with it! Thank you for letting me know!
You would have loved the original nock cases, they had some simple dark blue and grays. They originated the Sinclair. I’m collecting the whole line! I still have a few cases left that I missed out on when they were being produced.
Brilliant idea to show 3 price points for merchandise. Would love to see all stationary and bookshops in Boston. Congratulations on your new condo- very exciting Happy Thanksgiving y’all🦃🍷
If you do move to near newberry st Youll have to go see Pier Gustafson hes just across the river and hes an Excellent person to buy Vintage fountain pens from for reasonable price too :)
I finally purchased the Esterbrook King of Night pen! It was on my radar as soon as the stationers slipped it into their coming soon webpages. But I was kinda scared off from the price. I did get to see it in person and then it wouldn’t leave my mind, it was so beautiful. I purchased from Appelboom as it was the lowest price I found! That grey Aurora was also in my shopping cart but ultimately I passed for now. It is lovely and I’m glad you like it!! Thanks for the video!
I love your channel Lori and just did a double take when you mentioned your girlfriends in the Berkshires- that’s where I live! And I love the book idea. I work at our local library. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours. 🧡🤎
I highly recommend the Walmart Pen and Gear Heavyweight notebooks they are a4 their 100 pages and their $1.97 and their super fountain pen friendly I cant recommend them enough :)
I would love a book club with you! That would be so much fun! I just purchased a kindle on Amazon. They had a good deal on them and I have not put it down since I got it. Live my books! 💕
Some exciting things on your horizon! Looking forward to the Boston content! Also - if you like Kiri Same ink you should try to nab a bottle because it's been discontinued! :( I'd also recommend Tuna Grey by Dominant Industry x WonderPens. It's a lovely grey ink (my favourite!) Oh - and I'd love to see the packaging for the King of the Night pen! What a beauty!
A book club would be amazing!!
Ordered a Dagne in Spice! Thanks for the tip!❤

I've been pleasantly surprised by Rifle Paper products.
I love the book club idea and would enjoy venturing around Boston with you!
