I'm proud to be a DT member at

and I'm thrilled to do the Heritage challenge.
THIS IS MY FIRST CHALLENGE!!
For those of you that know me, you know all things Heritagy and Ancestry
are dear to my heart.
(Also I managed to inadvertently do the color challenge as well)
Go Me!
The challenge is to find a recipe/food tradition and OLD photos to go with (new ones can be done in a pinch. or old photos that have no bearing) - its all good. And what type of event, i.e. family reunion, that the recipe was used for and whose it was. Write about the memories of that when you were a kidlet. it can go back as far as your history takes. 
Journaling: Aunt Toot and Uncle Norm lived in the country and it was here that the family reunion/father's day picnic was held. Each family brought a covered ih to share of course; Aunt Toot's was her BBQ or nowadays called sloppy joes. I recently made it and it brought back such wonderful memories of those reunions. I had also forgotten how delicious it was. It is now in my arsenal of covered dishes.

First - congratulations on the DT...and your layout looks fabulous as always! Must ask why Aunt Toot was named that way? Heehee...Am I guessing correctly?
