My towels, when *I* fold them, line up neatly in the linen cupboard even though they don't match. With a little extra help from Martha Stewart I learned to "fold" fitted bed sheets. The job I do is not at all perfect but it's rectangular, sort of.]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Congratulations!
