Tea Towels, Ironing and Stress Release




I am in a mind to iron my tea towels.
Correction: I have ironed my tea towels.

My family will say that it is a way of 
stress release for me. When the tea towels 
are on the ironing board they know 
Mom needs quiet time. But when they 
are done...we all smile.

Fresh soft towels, newly laundered,
pressed to perfection and gently 
placed back into the draw. 
It feels so nice to pull each one out 
and fluff it into shape.
Like the start of a new day :)

As you may have guessed, I have a thing for tea towels, 
I am not sure at what point this fascination developed.
 I am hoping that one or two readers feels the same :)

Speaking of....are you familiar with the floursack? 
Heaven in a tea towel...dreamy! 
I have my sister-in-law, Kathleen to thank for that.
We share the same passion for thread counts :)
The floursack is a large, pure cotton sheet 
that cleans to perfection. Trust me, 
you will want more than one.

Am I mad? Yes possibly, as I still
have this silly flu which is really starting to annoy me.
Which could be why I have ironed every tea towel in sight
and trust me...when you have a passion for tea towels,
you tend to collect a lot!

Never fear..I have another little passion and the iron is hot.
How do you feel about ironing aprons ????



cough cough :)
