I think there must be a lot of similarities between Texas talk and Tennessee terminology. I've heard people (mostly when I was a child) saying cup towel, rather than dish towel. Tea towel? I've heard that, but I think it was preferred by fancy pants types -- the folks my mother used to say spoke "that propuh Suthuhn tawk" <br /><br />Hope you have a wonderful weekend!<br /><br />Fondly,<br />BillBillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15467769804679511645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-369681864114551968.post-43153752775409263762011-08-19T21:38:32.827-05:002011-08-19T21:38:32.827-05:00I love this fun post, how did I almost miss it!

It bothers me tho, when you are in a home, see someone using the dish towel, that supposed to be for that purpose only, dry their hands on and then dry dishes. To me you need a separate towel for different uses.LVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01853494568526683537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-369681864114551968.post-12304176254583961912011-08-18T17:34:05.229-05:002011-08-18T17:34:05.229-05:00Hey there BJ... looks like you have a super sweet ...Hey there BJ... looks like you have a super sweet collection of dish towels.
