In the sticky heat they are irresistible. With that delicious image in mind, we present our 71st Quarterly Edition for summer 2026, “Paletas.”\n\nCool Beginnings\n\nIn the 1940s, Ignacio and Luis Alcázar and their cousin Agustín Andrade left the small town of Tocumbo, Michoacán, dreaming of a better life. The trio arrived in Mexico City, where they opened a small shop selling paletas, frozen treats on a stick made from real fruit and fresh ingredients, which they had been concocting for their neighbors in Tocumbo for years.\n\nTheir paletería was a great success, and they expanded quickly, offering franchises to their friends and relatives back in Tocumbo. Soon there were thousands of paleterías all over Mexico, and so many of them were owned by natives of Tocumbo that these shops became widely known as Las Michoacanas.\n\nMexican immigrants brought paleterías with them to the United States–first throughout the American Southwest, then to cities like New York, Miami, and Chicago. Today, thankfully, paletas can be found just about anywhere in the U.S.A.\n\nAppropriate to the inspiration for this new edition, all the text is in Spanish on the interiors and covers of these Notas de Campo memo books.\n\nTradition\n\nNorma and José, the owners of Chicago’s multigenerational Paletaría Los Magos in the Pilsen neighborhood, shared with us how they uphold the traditional and artisanal methods of paleta making.\n\nThree Different 3-Packs\n• PACK A: Chicle (Blue), Sandía (Red), and Queso Crema (White)\n• PACK B: Piña (Yellow), Jamaica (Garnet), and Fresas con Crema (Pink)\n• PACK C: Limón (Green), Coco (White), and Mango con Chamoy (Red\/Orange)\n\nReal, Fresh Ingredients\n\nThe covers are printed on 12pt WestRock Tango C1S cover stock, with shiny gloss and frosty matte varnishes. Inside are 48 cream-colored dot-grid pages of 60#T Domtar Lynx paper. \nLocal Chicanx artist Atlan Arceo-Witzl illustrated a logo in the iconic style of a paleta wrapper for each pack’s transparent backing card.","brand":"Field Notes","offers":[{"title":"Paletas 3-Pack C: Green - White - Red\/Orange","offer_id":68028081766722,"sku":"FNC-71c","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Paletas 3-Pack B: Yellow - Garnet - Pink","offer_id":68028081799490,"sku":"FNC-71b","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Paletas 3-Pack A: Blue - Red - White","offer_id":68028081832258,"sku":"FNC-71a","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0786\/8907\/5522\/files\/36ffb048fc8497c1fbc24aa37f75301b558dfc29d723e3a675e6d5da5a9e2a01.jpg?v=1793844487"},{"product_id":"hunter-s-moon-2-pack","title":"Hunter’s Moon 2-Pack","description":"Our 72nd quarterly edition for the Fall of 2026 is “Hunter’s Moon,” named for the first full moon after the harvest. Known for the bright and warm light it casts on newly gleaned fields, the appearance of the Hunter’s Moon serves as a mindful call to prepare for the quieter months ahead. Light a candle and fill the pages of this 2-Pack, that includes a journal and sketchbook, with your autumnal words and images.\n\nInspired in part by Ted Kooser’s lovely poem, “Abandoned House,” artist Laura Weiler created the dream-like artwork for the covers using a unique gel plate method of monoprinting, layering collaged images, inks, and paints that are pressed and then transferred to paper. We visited her home studio in Kalamazoo, Michigan to learn more about her inspiration and process and to capture the creation of the fall cover art.\n\nSplit evenly across the two large (4.75\" x 7.5\") books, Weiler’s artwork is reproduced on sturdy 100#C Mohawk Superfine stock. The inside covers contain custom practical applications and all the information you need to know about dreams, consciousness, and memories.\n\nThree black staples bind 48 pages of Mohawk Superfine “Warm White” 70#T, an excellent premium paper that is ideal for writing and artwork across a variety of media. One book is ruled with light ochre lines for journaling and the other is blank for sketching.","brand":"Field Notes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68028083667266,"sku":"FNC-72","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0786\/8907\/5522\/files\/e5a197f6ce2fb217d98b9fb3d00c68f1160d2708e09fa417b7dc0bfa7ba89427.jpg?v=1793844491"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0786\/8907\/5522\/collections\/36ffb048fc8497c1fbc24aa37f75301b558dfc29d723e3a675e6d5da5a9e2a01.jpg?v=1794450728","url":"https:\/\/amarillostationery.com\/collections\/field-notes.oembed","provider":"Amarillo Stationery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
