There is something to be said for drying your laundry on a line outside. The clothes tend to smell fresher and you save money by not running the clothes dryer as much.

But at the same time, if there’s no breeze, the fabric tends to get a little stiff, as evidenced by my crunchy towel this morning. It’s folded like normal, but it looks a little ragged, like a dog that’s been out in the rain a bit, or like Hammy the Squirrel in Over the Hedge when he’s trying to look rabid. The giveaway is when you grab it. It’s all… crunchy.
