Super Towels: Abyss and Habidecor Super Pile Bathroom Towels

Picking out towels can be a giant headache. There are so many things to think about: price, color, material, pattern/no pattern. It can be so overwhelming and unfortunately, there was never a class in college to prepare me for these crucial life making decisions.

You can try and figure it out yourself or I'll make it easy for you, just pick Abyss Super Pile Towels by Abyss & Habidecor. This towel has it all. It is made from 100% Egyptian Cotton with thick loops for super absorbency and softness. It is has a 700 gram density allowing it to absorb more, but it does not feel that heavy. And to make these towels the full package, the edges are rounded to reduce the number of seams and fraying. This particular towel is offered in 60 colors, so it's sure to fit in any decor.

World Famous Chef, Thomas Keller Creates Raynaud 'Checks' Pattern to Recreate a Luxurious Dining Experience at Home

I'm in love with the houndstooth pattern; it is a classic pattern that has recently been finding it's way back into fabrics. Thomas Keller, the chef and owner of possibly the world's best resturant, French Laundry, loves the pattern too and doesn't think it should only apply to the world of fabrics. He has decided to bridge the two industries and introduce houndstooth to the world of table dinnerware.

Together, Thomas Keller and Limoges porcelain maunfacturer, Raynaud, commissioned a new line of porcelain that would be used in Keller's resturant, Per Se, in New York City. Patrons feast in luxury as they sit in the two-tired dining room overlooking Central Park and eat upon Keller's specially designed china 'Checks' which features a subtle houndstooth pattern around the rim of the dinnerware to echo the black-and-white checks of the chefs pants.

What would be more perfect than having a world famous chef, an artist of food, work with a world renowned maunfacturer of porcelain to design and create the plates and bowls you eat from? In my opinion, nothing; it is a perfect combination. Keller understands the part porcelain plays in both the creation and the pleasure of tasting the meal. Raynaud understands the porcelain needed to produce the highest quality fine china that will create a truely luxurious dining experience.
