Progress Report - May 2024

In this video we go over the report card and I talk about how my fountain pens and inks are working out so far for May 2024. I added a 10th pen! Additional topics at the end of the video (from my library) include: Pen temptation = a new Benu Euphoria (that is not to be named) causing me some serious pen gimmie's (I entered the drawing and meanwhile have been actually considering how could I buy it - and is it reasonable) eeeks stay tuned, Coco's diet, state of my pen pal reply pile, our drought and water restrictions and the book Glucose Revolution which I am learning a lot from.
Here are the pens and inks talked about and links to the videos I talked about:
