Canada Post Service Disruption Update
We wanted to write a quick update on shipping changes based on a potential Canada Post labour stoppage.
Canada Day 2016
Hope you all had a great long weekend and Canada Day, or Independence Day if you're in the US! We had a wonderful Canada Day celebration. Canada Day was on Friday, and our brick + mortar was closed for the day.
Wonder Pens Adventure + New Nib-Tuning Class with Jeffry Fridfinnson
What seems like a million years ago, we cajoled an invitation and invaded our friend and local repair guy Jeffry Fridfinnson's home.
Spring Planting
A few weekends ago we did some planting and re-potting and freshening up of everything. I meant to post about this earlier, along with a few other things, but I've been soaking up every park visit and evening dinner picnic we can get, and making mental notes and random notes on all the things I'm supposed to write about.
Caleb Adventures at the Hideaway Park
I've always loved discovering different neighbourhoods in Toronto, especially because I didn't grow up here - everything's always seemed so new and exciting to me.
Olive Branch & Co Calligraphy in the Studio
If you've stopped by the shop this week, you may have noticed we have a new chalkboard design up - done by Melissa Chan of Olive Branch & Co Calligraphy teaching a few Introduction to Modern Calligraphy classes here in our calligraphy studio!
Adventures in Kingston
We were in Kingston for the weekend! We drove up to the city where Jon and I first met, and where I certainly had many formative experiences in university. Kingston is about a two hour drive from Toronto, so not a place we visit very often, but it's a beautiful place to live in or to visit.
Caleb Adventures at T&T (Everyone's Favourite Asian Supermarket)
It's Friday! And to celebrate (so late at night especially), I thought I would share a few photos from our last trip to the supermarket.
New Calligraphy Classes Coming Up
I'm so excited to share with you a few new calligraphy classes! We are certainly keeping busy around here. Maybe it's the spring, but I've always enjoyed playing around with flex nibs and dip pens, and what better time than this new season to freshen up.
Thoughts on Three Years in the Pen Business
As what seems to usually be the case, I'm writing my blog with the baby-who-is-now-a-toddler snoring in his crib, and the dog snoring on the couch, and the big cheese snoring on the bed after a few glasses of wine.
