Get Smart Tea Towels

YumSugar — Mon, 14 May 2007 09:01:17 -0700

Have you ever wished you had a kitchen conversion chart at your fingertips? How about a wine pairing guide, or a herb cheat sheet? Well stop your wishing and start ordering. The folks over at Simple Memory Art (aka Smart) have come up with a smart set of kitchen towels. There are three sets to choose from (two different towels in each set): herbs & spices, wine and cooking tips. I love the way that they look (clean and simple) and I love the fact that they're informative and practical (they're meant to get dirty, they're towels!). Available in sets of 2 for $18, or as a full set of 6 for $50. Thanks Stacey for the tip!

Off To Market Recap: Dishtowels

With the forthcoming arrival of my favorite season of the year (summer) I'm getting ready to spend a lot of time over at my grandfather Al's house. He has an amazing pool and a fabulous kitchen to cook in: it's super open, always clean, and has two ovens. However when I go to clean up after cooking, he never has any nice dishtowels - which can be mildly frustrating. That's why I've asked you to help me by finding Al some new dishtowels. I told you I wanted towels that were durable and simple. No hearts and nothing too girly. You searched for block colors and nautical accents and saved the towels in the Yum Market on TeamSugar with the keyword tag, Dishtowels. The striped (everyone found towels with stripes!) towels that will most match Al's kitchen and persona are:

I love these plaid seersucker towels and will get one in every color for Al. Thanks for the awesome find amyfinke!

Two more towels so

Off To Market: Dishtowels

During the spring and summer, my mom and I like to go over to my grandfather Al's house to tan and swim in his pool. He lives in the East Bay and often times it is 10-15°F warmer at his house than it is at ours. When we head over to Al's house, we stop at the store for the fixings for a lovely dinner. I love cooking in his kitchen because it's super open, always clean, and has two ovens. However when I go to clean up after cooking, he never has any nice dishtowels. As purchasing linens for the kitchen is hardly a task that a bachelor like him should have to partake in, I want to get him a whole bunch of new towels. The towels should be durable and simple. No hearts and nothing too girlie. Think block colors and nautical accents. Save the kitchen towels you find in the Yum Market with the keyword, Dishtowels. I can't wait to see the towels you discover!
