Yesterday I bought my first bath towel.

This not to say Ive gone 51 years without a towel. I was on Amazon buying test strips and I wanted another towel in the house. They had a set of six for under $20 so added it to my cart.

I started thinking about how I got the towels I had. When I was single I lived in a one-bedroom condo with two bath towels that were gifts. They lasted me over 20 years.

Now I’m married and my wife keeps what towels we have in the linen closet on the other side of the house. I need more towels so I can keep them in sight.
