Identifying a Tiny Brown Bug?

tiny brown bugDoes anyone know what this bug is? I found it on the towel and I noticed there's one in our bathroom sink dead. It's brown. Please help. I found it this week and I live in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. This is a larger photo than the original in my first request, hopefully that helps.

My husband, the entomologist, identifies your bug as a harmless (to humans) grain beetle-one type of many! Eats grain, flours, cereals, etc. You should check your kitchen for all possible sources of contagion. A good plan is to completely clean your pantry, throw out all opened and unopened grain packages, eliminate all possible food sources for this beetle. When you purchase any new grain item, store in the freezer for 24 hours to kill any pests living in the box or bag; then the grain will be safe in your pantry unless, of course, the beetles are already there.
