Fast food is fast, but I sometimes wonder about the food part. Like you, I am frequently too busy to cook or even shop for food for that matter. But, I have found a lazy alternative to fast food, the rotisserie chicken. In my version, I have it over romaine with a little Parmesan, a few croutons, Italian dressing and a couple of pepperoncini on the side. This next Call for Entries, also has a contingency plan for running out of time… the online entry. You have plenty of time until this deadline, but just in case

Check out this Call for Entries for the 8th Art of Photography Show which is being held at the San Diego Art Institute this year.  The cost to enter is about average; however, last year, 1700 people attended the reception, and the award are spectacular.  That’s a bargain…
