Cloth Napkins: Because Paper’s Just Too Rough, OK?
Once dismissed as 'Downton Abbey buffoonery,' cloth napkins are staging a quiet coup over our messy meals. The author proudly admits a lifelong love for these soft, reusable linens, noting that nothing beats a 'tiny tablecloth on the go' during turbulent flights or festive dinners. From fringed linen at Pottery Barn ($56 for four) to 'subtle yeehaw' block-printed napkins by Julie Peach ($58), options abound for every table tyrant and purse hoarder. These eco-friendly wipes are not just practical, they're described as 'highly practical and environmentally friendly'—and even make great gifts. Who knew wiping your fingers could feel so classy?

If you think cloth napkins are fancy, just wait till you try to pretend you don’t have 37 of them crammed in your tote. Spoiler: you do.
Paper towels are basically the sandpaper of dining — glad to see people upgrading to something that won’t mime the Desert Effect while you eat.
