Granny, What you making?
Granny, What You Making? — An Old-School Recipe Coloring Book
By Jocelyn Wilford
Step back into the warmth of Granny’s kitchen, where something delicious is cooking and memories are waiting to be made!
This adult coloring book brings together 25 different grannies and their grandchildren, celebrating Black/African American, White/Caucasian, Asian American, and Mexican American families. Each granny and grandchild has an individual appearance, hairstyle, outfit, and personality. You’ll meet new faces throughout the book!
Inspired by the 1960s, the illustrations feature period-style clothing, cookware, appliances, furniture, cozy kitchens, and welcoming porches. Flowers, leafy plants, patterned aprons, pretty curtains, and decorative rugs give you plenty of beautiful details to color as you settle into a relaxing creative break.
Alongside each illustration, you’ll find an old-school recipe—traditional home-cooking favorites that celebrate the comfort of food shared across generations. Every recipe is made without pork.
