mellow MELON

I am melon obsessed lately.  Watermelon & canteloupe are around $.50/lb. or less, and I can’t seem to get enough.  I’m having them for on the side of oatmeal at breakfast, with cottage cheese & salads at lunch, and they’ve even become dessert stand-ins.  I’m excited about high value nutrition and low-cost; it doesn’t always work out quite that way.  This next Call is a selling show with a price cap, making it an affordable way for fans to become collectors.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from BWAC (Brooklyn, NY) for the Really Affordable Art Show.  There is a price cap on submissions to this show, but there is only 30% commission.  A distinguished juror & a $1000 purchase award make this is a great opportunity to find new collectors…

CALL for ENTRIES: The Mind’s Eye

We always end up eating eggs for breakfast.  I am so bored with eggs.  Because I try to avoid single-use appliances, I didn’t own a waffle iron until I inherited one second-hand from my mother-in-law last week.  We’ve had waffles 4 times in the last 7 days.  My husband asked, “Don’t you want something different?”   I explained that appearance of something 4 times in our nearly 20 years together still qualifies as something different even if the 4 times were all in one week.  The award for best waffles EVER goes to this morning’s blueberry bacon maple variety.  He deserves a cash award, really.  This next Call comes with cash awards but no blueberry waffles.  It is still worth a look though…

Check out this Call for Entries from All-About-Photo.com for The Mind’s Eye for a showcase at the Jules Maeght Gallery (San Francisco, CA) in addition to an online gallery.  Big jury pool, big prizes & reasonable entry fee.  Take a look…
