Paris City Notebook by Moleskine

It's here! It's here!

I bought a little early Christmas present for myself. I've been vigilantly awaiting the Moleskine City Notebooks to hit our shores (they were released in London months ago), googling them every two or three days for the past two months. The only store in the US that has them right now, as far as I can tell, is Powell's. Yay Powell's! The Paris City Notebook, this little gem, arrived in the mail today.

The trip to Paris with our friends J&D never did happen this fall, but all is not lost. We shall make it someday, maybe even next year. J&D are doing a major remodeling on their Eichler house, and things have not gone as smoothly or as quickly as they had hoped. So when, in early December, they didn't yet have a roof, we figured it could wait.

But now I have this gorgeous Moleskine with maps, a street index, and tabbed sections for filling in with information. It also has a section of completely blank pages for anything (oh, how I wish I could draw), several sheets of post-it-like clear plastic for write-on-wipe-off map drawing, and extra tab stickers. First things first: will fill in the information for the chocolate walking tour with David Lebovitz. Then we'll figure out what else to add.

Paris, I'm ready!
