bandannas

i was just checking out martha stewart and i came across this tip about using bandannas as napkins. she was talking about folding them into fun pinwheel shapes -



and i thought that was kinda neat, b/c i've been using them ever since i've been on my own - they come in so many different colors and patterns, they're inexpensive (.84 at walmart), and they're cotton so they wash up really easy.




this works for me b/c almost all my dishes are plain white - so something like a bright bandanna really pops.
