Question of the Week
I have decided that asking questions is fun. You all responded quite enthusiastically to questions about cooking and vegetables. Obviously, those kinds of important life questions are truly the key to a successful blog. So, without any further ado, I present:
The Question

For what use?
Actually, never mind - I never buy paper napkins. I use cloth napkins for napkin-y things and paper towels for paper towel-y things or as napkins if I haven't done the laundry.
I, personally, use paper towels in place of napkins. I buy the ones where you can choose a size, or whatever, because I don't need a full sheet to wipe my mouth most of the time. I just need a little square.
But when we have people over, we use napkins. I like to get funky, wild designs for special occasions.
I use whatever I happen to have handy, unless we're talking very special occasion (like my folks coming for Christmas dinner), in which case I go spelunking in my "linen" closet for the real napkins.
Right now I'm hooked on both. But as Peter (BostonWillowFan) got us a gift card to Crate and Barrel and Jim and Ijust got very nice cloth napkins and beautiful napkin rings, I think we're going that route.
I don't use napkins enough to justify buying them for that purpose, so when I need one, I grab a paper towel. But I grew up with napkins.
