Lost my entire weekly spread when a coffee shop in Portland spilled a latte on my notebook

Was sitting at Stumptown on Belmont last Tuesday and some guy tripped into my table, soaking my journal in a full 16oz latte. Has anyone found a way to waterproof their spreads without switching to plastic?

16oz? That's like a normal sized coffee, not even some mega monstrosity. Honestly, maybe just keep your book in a ziplock bag if it's that precious to you.

Man, 16oz is a pretty standard coffee size. And a ziplock bag? That's just admitting defeat before you even start. I've seen people use beeswax wraps or cut up clear vinyl folders as makeshift covers. Keeps the pages dry enough for a quick wipe down. Still gotta be careful with the edges though. That's the weak spot.
