Here’s my pimped-out notebook!

My most recent writer’s notebook–cute as it is–doesn’t have a pocket for my lists. In the past, I’ve done different things like pasting in envelopes to provide for the necessary expansion space. But supplies are limited in our Paris apartment. My solution was to jack the pocket from my previous PaperBlanks notebook. Bonus? When I removed the pocket, I managed to get the elastic band, too! So now my slim little notebook is as fully featured as any gal could ask for.

Who says I wasn’t paying attention when my brother was watching all those reruns of “MacGyver”? I guess it’s not a duct-tape-reinforced, mosquito-repellent explosive, but I’m proud of myself. It’s the small pleasures…
