  "Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!"

 
Have a turkey.
 
I wonder how many of those creatures will be used in the span of this week.

I don't eat meat, so maybe there's one extra Turkey walking around with a smile. 

 I'm having wild salmon tomorrow night with yams.

Likewise, though I'm having a veg lasagna. It's not particularly festive, but it will be ding-dong-dang delicious.

Salmon is also meat isn't it? Either way, I like salmon. Especially lemon salmon and veggies. Yummy.

I understand now. For me, animal flesh is meat.
I see that some don't consider fish to be "meat".

 Okay, we can use the stroke of my Pilot Metal Falcon nib for a bit more clarity. I am not vegetarian and eat seafood. So, when I say - colloquially, mind you - that I don't eat meat, I am generally referring to those land/air based critters. You know the critters

I'm talking 'bout. Technically, fish could indeed be meat.

Is there a huge difference between fountain pens in the sub$100 range (not disposable, I mean respected $80ish pens) against more expensive pens?
I assume nib quality and material of the pen are the biggest differences

 
Assuming you're talking about new pens, I find there is a big difference. The more expensive pens feel heftier and more solid, and are better tuned in terms of nib feel and feed flow. But I do like larger pens, which cost quite a bit more when they have premium materials and build. If your preference is for smaller pens, you can find very nice examples at lower prices.

Every time I resume following this thread, I have thoughts of writing the next letter, sending a notecard or sketching an envelope dancing across my head.

Autumn especially...

Christmas shopping on the way!

Christmas shopping on the way!

I've ordered two bottles of the new Graf von Faber Castell inks (Moss Green and Slate Grey).
They will be my Christmas presents from myself to me (if I don't count the M800 Tortoise I've bought a bit earlier).

I've bought a Monteverde Tool Pen for my dad what is on the way too, and got a Pilot Metropolitan for my sister what I've tested for a little and than packed it back

 A "Live in-studio" demo?

The Moss Green is a lovely color. And it shades well on paper.
