CALL for ENTRIES: The Art of Music

MUSIC

When someone hums while eating, its a pretty good sign they like their food.  I had never witnessed anyone hum and eat until my son was about 3 years old.  Everytime he would sit down with his favorite foods, he would absent-mindedly start humming quietlyto himself.  He was completely unaware. We still call it “dinner music”  on the rare occasion we hear it.  My husband and I never made any real effort to stop it (even in restaurants) because, well, let’s face it…food makes me sing too, if only in my heart. (Check out this book about what your favorite bands eat on the road, pictured left.)  This next Call asks you to be inspired–by music, not food.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries for The Art of Music from Flow Art Space (Minneapolis, MN).  Great news…NO COMMISSION, no really.  This is a rare opportunity in a fairly new gallery that really wants to target buyers.  Investigate for yourself…

I become periodically addicted to snack foods.  Recently I’ve been fixated on Hot Buffalo Wing Pretzel Pieces from Snyder’s; however, an upcoming trip to a warm climate in the dead of winter means dragging out my bathing suit in December. Ugh.  So, I am trying to break the addiction by trying out new snack foods.  This week…whole grain fig newtons.  Wow, that’s a punch of flavor in a tiny package.  My logic is that the stronger flavor will result in less consumption.  We’ll see.  This next Call wants to see what can of wallop you can bring in a small package.  Take a look…

Call for Entries: Small Works Exhibition

Why is it that small foods seem more fragile and light?  They aren’t, necessarily.  Carrots are hearty root vegetables that are a staple of winter favorites like chicken noodle soup and beef stew.  However, slice them thin and ring a head of belgian endive, and I suddenly feel like I’m having delicate French food.  Size matters.  This next call for small works would be confirmation of that theory.  Take a look…

There was a time when I was scared of asparagus.  No, really.  My only childhood exposure to asparagus was with the canned variety–grayish green, slimy, salty, icky.  I managed to go a span of TWO DECADES without eating it again.  I had developed such a taste aversion that irrationally, somewhere in the back of my brain, I thought consuming it would have dire consequences.  Luckily, someone served me cream of asparagus soup under the guise of cream of broccoli soup, and now I am addicted.  Blanched and marinated in balsamic vinigrette then served cold…I could eat it every day.  This next call seeks to explore YOUR fears.  Anybody want to talk about bloody beets?

I have to admit that my Australian food experience has been lacking over the years.  However, a Chef named Jason introduced me to Vegemite this Spring.  Like you probably, my only previous experience with Vegemite was the Men At Work song.  Traditionally, this paste made from a by-product of beer-brewing and is eaten on buttered toast.  My taste was Vegemite mixed heavily with butter and eaten with pita.  Yum.  Give it a try if you get a chance.  So, have you figured out this next Call is from Australia yet?
