Default In Excel: is there a way of inserting the current time (what time it is right NOW)

Control semi-colon inserts the date.
Control shift colon inserts the time.

This would help me save time

Everytime I take a pill (medication) I jot down the time.

In Word, it is easy. You just select Insert--Date/Time & then select
the current time (without auto-update)

Is there an equivalent command in Excel?

In Excel I have time-sheets for work. I jot down the time it is when I
arrive at work/uni etc. It would be useful if I could just click a
button and it would insert the current time. (I know it's not hard to
just type in 9:05am, but anything that saves time is a bonus!)
