Turkish Tea
Turkish Tea When I think of Turkey, I think of bath towels. Strange, I know, but hear me out. When my mom was in high school, she made friends with a girl from a big city when they were participating in one of those boring extra curricular things that adults love to encourage kids to do to make them look better on college applications. Her friend came from a poor family, and joined the Air Force after she graduated high school- so she could get enough to eat, and medical care. Yeah, that's the reality of several of the people I know who joined the military or National Guard. Anyway, mom's friend spent some time stationed in Turkey, and sent a bath towel to mom as a gift. The towel has never been used, but it is big and thick. It is brightly colored with a bold design. It's probably been well over 22 years since I've seen it, so I don't remember it exactly.
