fall
FARMING
of sorts

Fresh sea bass, rainbow beets & marinated mozzarella pearls. The marinade was herbed with basil from my window sill. The tartar sauce was accented by chow chow canned by my mother with cucumbers & cabbage grown this year. The only things not fresh were the olive oil, Himalayan salt & Moroccan red pepper. Is it Spring? Unfortunately not. just the day after a trip to the farmers market. In my dream world, I would live within walking distance of a fresh market so that every meal could be this wonderful. This next Call wants to know what fills you with wonder. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Telling Stories

Posted on October 9, 2015October 9, 2015 by R.L. Gibson

from
ITALY
with love
(& basil)

Herbs and spices always tell a meal’s story. And those stories are shaped by our experiences. Even though basil is found in Thai cuisine, it immediately transports me to Italy. And while cumin finds its origins in Iran & the Mediterranean, it conjures memories of Mexico for me. This next Call is looking for your story in images. This is a great challenge…

Check out this Call for Entries from F-Stop Magazine for Telling Stories, (Issue #74). I love this theme; plus, there is no entry fee. So if the cliche is “a picture is worth a 1000 words,” then this is your chance to PROVE it…

PUMPKIN
jack

Everywhere I go there are pumpkins. Big orange jack-o-lantern-style pumpkins are everywhere –shipped in from farms across the state. Funny enough, while my neighbors (along with most of the country) are obsessed with pumpkin-flavored everything, there are almost NO pumpkins meant for cooking (sugar pumpkins) to be found in grocery stores. Trust me, you don’t want to make a pie out of a carving pumpkin. Ick. This next Call wants to know about your landscape, seascape, etc. Your “scape” doesn’t have to be orange, BTW…

CALL for ENTRIES: Memories

Posted on October 5, 2015 by R.L. Gibson

the
SPAGHETTI
incident

I spent my childhood as the family cook & server. I was raised by a single father that couldn’t cook. I think he realized early on that ANY talent I had in the kitchen would surpass his own. Even before I could cook with aid of a step stool, I was already setting the table and serving dinner. I remember serving a plate of spaghetti and tomato sauce to my father, already seated, who quickly discovered you shouldn’t trust a 4 year old to secure a drop leaf table. Ha. he called it the “spaghetti incident” until the day he died. This next Call wants to see how your imagination frames your early memories –food optional. Handle this theme thoughtfully…

Check out this Call for Entries from L.A. Photo Curator for the Memories exhibit. $20 entry, no shipping & a portion of the entry fees goes to a great charity. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Jealous

Posted on September 24, 2015 by R.L. Gibson

jumping through the
HOOPS

I have plastic envy. Hoop houses are sprouting up all over town as pre-planning for chances of upcoming frost. Last year our first snow came in October. Locally lots of folks protect their late Summer plantings from possible early frost while also giving them space to start seedlings in colder weather. Once the ground is frozen, installation becomes a much more complicated project. My house hangs on the side of a mountain. The only flat space I have for a hoop house is my gravel driveway, ha. Jealous of plastic –never thought I’d have that problem. This next Call will hopefully make you the object of the jealous. Take a look…
