Thursday afternoon
Dear Alex,
I left the book by the window. There is a note on page twenty-three that I thought you would like. Bring it along on Thursday; we can finish the conversation over coffee.
See you there.

Pick up eggs and fresh flowers
Its small letters reach nearly to the top of the capitals, so a line looks big and even, close to block printing by hand. Kimberly Geswein made it in 2010 as a tidy handwriting with rounded ends and soft curves.
1 Regular, extended Latin. Good for a recipe card or a list on a classroom wall, and a caption under a family photo would suit it as well.
