This time, we will be sharing some of S's writing time.

Mr. S uses the "GMUND Weekly Planner" as a menu table. He likes the texture of letterpress printing. He writes down the ingredients he bought in the memo column and the menu for each day of the week in the day of the week column to create a weekly menu table.
In the memo section, draw a line down the middle so you can write down a list of the ingredients you bought. Use the vibrant "Kakimori colour - Po" to draw the line, which is similar to the colour of the frame.
Kakimori colour - Po / Frost - Violet/Rollerball
The color used to write the ingredients is "Kakimori colour - Torori (thick)". It is an orange colour that brings to mind the image of an omelette, and was thought to be perfect. Just lining up the ingredients makes you feel cheerful.

To write the menu, they used a nuanced blue found in "Ink Without Recipes," a shop that irregularly sells ink that was made in excess at an inkstand. They draw lines next to ingredients that have been used, making sure to use them without waste.
Ink without a recipe - Rain
This is how I filled in the recipes for the week. After the week was over, I put them in a handmade file that I made to fit the size of the paper. The file was made by pasting wrapping paper I bought at a vintage shop onto cardboard, adding grommets to it so that it could be bound with a ribbon.
She has a lot of daily menus saved up, and looking back at them helps her come up with new recipes.
Finally, we have collected the tools that Mr. S uses.
Three colors of ink, three pens with each color, a triangular scale, and a hole punch that can make one hole.
He uses a rollerball pen, which can use ink. As he is left-handed, he finds it difficult to use a fountain pen, but he likes rollerballs because they write smoothly, and he has been using all the rollerballs that Kakimori has released so far.

S-san enjoys not only using ready-made products, but also making her own things and color-coding them according to the content and location of what she is writing. I hope that S-san's writing time will give you some hints on how to enjoy writing.
