Oh how I LOVE those household budget/ledger books! I know -exactly- the ones you’re talking about: multiple columns, Japanese writing at the top of each column, and the COLORS — all those ledger lines in turquoise and red, on a background of warm white. I have far too many of them, sitting on the shelf waiting to be used…
Thanks for reading along! :-)

Re: a stationery tour –> you got it! :-) The first order of business would be figuring out which part of Tokyo to stay in, since it’s ALL so cool!
I love imagining you in Japan, on the hunt for family lore and history. Let me know when you start that adventure, as I’d love to hear all about it.

Travel is a wonderful thing to do–several years ago, we were in Bangkok and then in Tokyo where I got to see and buy some gorgeous papers, pens, and little stationery sets… there were all kinds of helpfully formatted paper for students and moms, in particular. I remember that Household Management notebooks were abundant–blew my mind. Thank you for taking me on a paper lovin trip with you… Janice

I’ve been thinking about going back again to visit. I am also curious about my heritage so will be going to check out my family tree. It’s been too long since I’ve been back. Let me know when you get that tour together….It all looks so yummy!

Just wait until tomorrow’s write up! And then there’s the fact that so much stuff happened, I can’t even fit it all into three different blog posts…

Wow! So cool to hear that you lived in Japan…in high school I lived in Yokohama (exchange program) for six months. It made me fall head-over-heels; there was no looking back! You should definitely try and go back one of these days — it would be interesting to hear whether or not things are radically different from how you remember them…
