How do you like your towels?

I was reading my book and the main character was expecting a guest over. So she ran about tidying her apartment and changing towels in the guest bathroom.

The commentary was on her embarrassment at not having soft towels as she’d run out of fabric softener.

Two things came to mind. One, when I was a child, we never used fabric softener in the wash, not sure it was even a thing back in the day.

Second, as an adult, I’ve never taken to soft towels. I never feel dry enough after a shower. It is harder these days to actually find towels that are a bit rough.

Not putting them in the clothes dryer helps. For me a rough towel is a great exfoliator as well 😂

What are your thoughts? Soft and fluffy or thin and crunchy?

Bit like a pizza base, which I also prefer thin and crunchy! 😋 Speaking of which, I’ll be making home made pizza for dinner tonight…
