The napkin

“Ah... napkin.”

The napkin is a small, but important detail that is often overlooked until the very last moment, right when it’s needed.

Whether it’s a napkin, a passport, batteries, or a pair of glasses... the need can surely be anticipated with a little thought. Some start-to-finish consideration of the task at hand.

Otherwise, you’ll often find yourself standing up just as you’ve tucked in to get started.
