We just got in our great Le Jacquard Francais tea towels which truly do only get better with age. If you have any of their table linens you know what I mean.
Click here to go to their oh so very french site where we learn that in the past setting a beautiful table was about establishing social status but now it is more about expressing creativity. Whew that's good to know! But seriously, while the site is sort of stuffy, it also is full of good technical info and some charming history about table linens and lots of photos of some beautifully set tables which cannot help but get you in the mood for the many and varied (in their words) "pleasures of the table", which we here in the wilds of Oregon have a deep affinity for as well.
I sense outdoor summer dining is just around the corner.
