I am addicted to blackberries and raspberries.  I dare say that I would consume them at EVERY meal if I was financially able to afford them that often.  And, many of you know that I am addicted to my BlackBerry as well.  I never could be convinced to make the leap to iPhone and have remained jealous of the photo apps available.  Until now… I have found a couple of great photo apps for Blackberry, and my shots are getting better by the day as a result.  I wonder if a cell phone pic could take the cover of this Juried Book Competition featured in this Call for Entries?  Hmmm… sounds like a challenge.

Generic versus name brand and heirloom versus genetically-modified and cheese food versus cheese.  The debates over what makes the grade and what doesn’t will NEVER end.  In my kitchen, I read labels and I buy the very best quality that I can afford at the moment.  I steer clear of any foods with scary ingredient lists, and I cross my fingers and hope my family enjoys their dinner.  This Call is all about the subjective question “is it good enough?”  Say some affirmations in the mirror and take the leap…

RECIPE for SUCCESS

Like many of you, I frequently “wing it” in the kitchen.  I like the idea of cooking with whatever you have on hand and making adjustments according to taste along the way.  However, while editing a recipe card for The Lodge at Buckberry Creek recently, I realized there is a certain comfort in knowing the exact amount of cream and vanilla in bread pudding.  There is comfort in not guessing the temperature or constantly checking the oven to see if your concoction is ready.  Take comfort in the fact that the Call a well-established show with lots of room for research.  Time to create your own recipe…
