I WONDER
if just maybe

The best cooks, and chefs for that matter, that I know are women.  Men dominate the professional culinary world, and when I did my short stint in cooking school, all but 2 of my classmates are male.  Maybe the answer is that women are smart enough not to want to spend 8 to 10 hours a day, 6 days a week in a hot kitchen.  Many of spend enough time there as it is.  Hmm.  This next Call REQUIRES that you be a woman to participate.  So there…

Check out this Call for Entries from POWFest!  Here’s a great chance to have your work in film showcased in Portland, OR.  You can enter for as little as $20 if you make the early deadline, but even the late deadline is only $35.  Take a chance!
