Sweet Luxury

It's funny to me sometimes what I feel is luxurious. One of my Christmas gifts from Matt was this: 

This is what they look like in the package: 

And I'm really glad he got me the blue ones!

Matt didn't know it, but I registered for something similar at Bed, Bath and Beyond for our wedding. I felt a little odd about it because I can't imagine buying hair towels for someone as a wedding gift. 

Matt's way of shopping for gifts is to go to the mall or certain stores and walk around looking. If something strikes him as something that person would like, he purchases it. He doesn't have a budget in mind for gifts, so cost isn't an issue. He doesn't necessarily think about what that person needs or would like beforehand; he lets the idea for a good gift come to him while he is out thinking about that person. 

I'm not sure what led Matt to Bed, Bath and Beyond but when he saw these hair towels, I imagine he was led to make the purchase knowing I always use a regular bath towel to wrap my hair after a shower. Since I use one every day, I couldn't enjoy the luxury of this gift any more. Sometimes the simplest things provide me the sweetest luxury.
