If Cats Could Talk Kitchen Towel

Doesn’t this make you smile?

Of course cats wouldn’t talk even if they could. And I would argue my cats do talk but that’s a discussion for another time.

This gift kitchen towel makes me smile every time I see it. It not only reminds me of the friend who gave it to me but the humor of my cats talking to me and the Siamese cats we grew up with as children.

I contend everything we surround ourselves with should have wonderful positive memories. If the memories are not reaffirming and supporting, repurpose them. Over the years we have made custom quilts out of loved ones clothings, photos and mementos.

And we should concentrate on those places where we spend every day and most of our time - bedroom, bathrooms and kitchens.

When I was growing up I learned to embroider making kitchen towels. Those memories prompted me to carry handmade muslin kitchen towels made by hand, and embroidered, here in Missouri. How can you look at long eared puppy days of the week kitchen towels and not smile, especially with every day having a different dog adventure?

Another reason to surround ourselves with things that make us smile.
