Odds and Ends from Granny's

There's two things I took away from Granny's last weekend that I'd like to share. 


#1: Granny has the best and easiest barbecue recipe. Here it is for your eating pleasure. And, unlike some of the family recipes I've been recently trying to use (ahem, Aunt Cherry's amazing apple pie recipe), this one has actual measurements for the ingredients!  (click the photo to see it larger!)

"Ketchup" works just fine too....

 #2: I looked in the mirror in Granny's bathroom and saw these towels on the shelf behind me. I wouldn't necessarily say it's my color scheme, but something about it just struck me immediately. I was so excited to get my camera. I love how they're all so neatly folded (I would expect nothing less from Granny). And I like how she didn't put all one color in one stack. And I also like how she's matched them by size so they taper off as they get closer to the window. It all just works. I'd even call it beautiful, frame it and hang this photo on a wall. It makes me smile.
