Favorites: pens

 My dad has always liked a good pen. An easy gift for him is "a nice pen." We both like gel pens. Being left-handed, I like that gel pens dry quickly, so I don't get a gray side of my hand from dragging it through the ink. Several years ago, I tried Pentel Ener-gel liquid ink pens and I loved them. I go through them quite often, especially the black. I also discovered that they have purple ink, which is my favorite color. I have gone through lots of the purple ink pens.💜

As you can see, I have them in red, pink, blue, purple and black! I like using them for crossword puzzles & word searches, for grading school papers, for writing in my journal and bullet journal, and for writing in a greeting card. They do bleed through thinner paper though. I have really enjoyed them in my bullet journal that I started last month, but they do bleed through pages.

Some other gel pens that I also like are these...

These are Pilot G-2 gel pens. My hubby has gotten me a set of multiple colors for my stocking in past years, and guess which ones I go through first? The black and purple of course... then the red!

I know pens are a trivial thing, but I like the way they write, and I like the grips too. They are just nice pens to write with and use. Check them out if you need a good pen, and if you do, let me know what you think! What are your favorite pens?

Psalm 45:1
My heart is stirred by a noble theme as I recite my verses for the king; my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer.

Isaiah 8:1
The Lord said to me, “Take a large scroll and write on it with an ordinary pen: Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz.”

3 John 1:13
I have much to write you, but I do not want to do so with pen and ink.
