I bought a second set of towels for us while we were in the States. This morning we got them out and used them for the first time. We are very blessed to have a washing machine, but we do not have a dryer, that means most things, especially towels, have a harder, crunchier feel to them after they've been washed. It was SO nice to use a clean towel this morning that was SOFT! Sometimes it's the little things that make your day! -Krista
