Today’s, What’s in my kitchen?, is about my flour sacks.  This may sound like a funny review, okay she’s talking about flour sacks, I am not sure she’s okay, but seriously, my flour sacs are one of my favorite kitchen tools.  Everyday I use my flour sacks, that can’t be said for all of my kitchen gadgets.  I purchased my flour sacks at Williams Sonoma for $10, now that’s cheap!  I use flour sacks in the place of kitchen towels.  I found kitchen towels to be too thick to use and not very absorbent.  The other thing I love about my flour sacks is, unlike my kitchen towels, they are large enough for me to wrap in my aprons or through over my shoulder (which is what I do most of the time).   I love the thin nature of these towels, they make it easy to dry out dishes (without the fear of lint) or my knives.  The only real drawback that I can see is they are white.  These towels do not stay white for very long in my kitchen.  I have more than one set so I can be continually washing the ones I use.  I think these make a great, thoughtful, inexpensive gift for the cook in your life.  I would definitely love to get more flour sacks as a present.  If you think you might like these towels click on the photo above.
