Towel love

I like my towels to be handy, convienent and to function practically.  In the kitchen I like my towels to stay where I need them. Hence, I like to hang my towel on the oven door.  I used to buy towels with ties on them.  For some unknown (probably fashion) reason they are impossible to find anymore.  So I have hung on to my disgusting old ones because no matter what you may try, a towel neatly hung over the bar falls on the floor after someone uses it.

 These old and dingy towels are being sent to the old-towels-home in the garage, where they can get oil, grease, paint and garden grime on them because.....

My daughter-in-law, Natalie made me 6 of these wonderful NEW kitchen towels.  She claims she did not know I had a crazy wierd passion about my "hunt for the perfect oven towel" problem....

but I'm glad to have these and get rid of the old ones!!!

Texas Time

We (Karl, Myself and Laura) took a short trip to Texas this last weekend to connect with Kenny, Natalie and the kids there.  We have never even had a chance to meet our new granddaughter, who is now 6 months old!   It was so great to see the kids and spend a little time with them.  It's tough to find time with all our schedules to take trips like this, Karl is especially tricky now with his commitment to the Choir, so we grabbed the chance while we could even if it meant going in the cold, wet month of January.
