use me

I often hear from customers
that they don't want to use their tea towels
because the towels are just too nice. 

but I love the linen best when it's used
and washed
and used again and again.

soft and crumpled. 

just like these photos from lissa
who writes a blog
dedicated to food, family, friends, and time in the kitchen.

she even made a movie

 

and there's "best stripes", being used again!

a good gray day

 

it's another gray day in san francisco 

so I've decided to make it a good gray day 

by posting my favorite new grays. 

although I have to say, 

even these look better on a sunny day.

slate on oatmeal linen, here.

harvest time

a friend of mine gave a friend of hers 

a tea towel, and he didn't want to use it. 

she insisted, and here you go. 

it's harvest time 

with live love eat.

thanks for sharing, katie.

bakers love BAKE

bakers love BAKE 

and we love seeing our tea towels 

out there in the world, 

being used. 

michelle lee, thanks for sharing. 

(if only you could share the baked goods! :)
