When most people think of Southern food, they think fried chicken or biscuits ‘n’ gravy.  But, I think of the typical farm fresh meat and two home-grown veggies.  It is a new culinary South folks.  We’re finally starting to value knowing the source of our meats and vegetables again.  This next Call celebrates the South, and they aren’t chicken either…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Slow Exposures Photography Festival for Slow Exposures, a juried exhibition celebrating photography of the Rural South.  Great jurors & an expansive exhibit.  Take a look…

I cannot escape corn. It is in everything from maltodextrin to corn syrup; you can’t escape.  And since 80-90% of that corn is genetically modified, I’m not thrilled.  While remodeling a room recently, we were cutting luan (a type of plywood) for a wall application, and what did I smell?  Burnt corn.  I would bet large sums of money that the glue that holds those layers of veneer together is made with corn.  Okay, I’ll stop bitching about corn now.  Need to bitch about something?  This next show is your perfect opportunity.  Take a look…

“If you’re awake & breathing, you know there’s a war waging against our gender. Has been for 10,000 years or longer.

From the atrocities of various (and perpetual) war zones, to the workplace, courtrooms, behind closed doors, and even congress, women aren’t treated with or given the dignity and equanimity they deserve.

B*tch Fest will provide a platform for those artists courageous enough to confront these issues of social justice. There is plenty to bitch about. Come share your struggle with us. — from thehaggussociety.org

I now take pictures of my food in progress–of making, not eating.  Because I obnoxiously post pics of my cooking adventure to Facebook, my friends ask for recipes.  Now I have begun to document my dishes via cell phone pics and post them as sets.  Really.  Because clearly, I don’t have enough to do, ha.  There are better uses of your cell phone; for example, this next Call.  Take a look…

I take turns with food indulgences.  Butter makes a regular appearance, but heavy whipping cream seems to be the preference this week.  It is the main reason I make the best quiche (anywhere, thank-you-very-much), but my zucchini au gratin rocks because of it as well.  My relationship with heavy whipping cream is almost spiritual.  This next Call wants to see how you reveal your mind, spirit & emotion in art.

Your mayonnaise is a great judge of character.  No, really, I haven’t lost my mind.  If you’re not vegan, and you hate mayonnaise, it is probably because you’ve never had anything but the homogenized, bland, store-bought variety.  Real mayonnaise, if fresh, is made of three simple ingredients: egg yolks, oil & acid.  I prefer farm-fresh eggs, olive oil and lemon.  The are hundreds of combinations each with their own quirks and complexities.  Mayo-making is an foodie’s artisan craft, and this next Call is a celebration of fine craft from basketry to furniture and everything in between.  Take a look…

INGREDIENTS

My true goal with food is the same with art: to see you be brave.  But being brave has to be based on knowledge, not whim.  This is true of both food AND art.  I would never have you enter a show without doing at least some preliminary research into the venue, gallery, organization or publication.  So I want to encourage you never to let a food enter your mouth without a little preliminary research into ingredients or origin.  Do me a favor, if I can’t get you to quit eating food with labels, at least read the label.  There are scary things hidden in lots of foods. This next Call wants to explore the hidden as well.  Take a look…

My kid loves quiche.  He requests it for every special occasion–from birthdays to graduations.  The secret is 6 eggs to 2 cups of heavy whipping cream for a deep dish, and don’t talk to me about the fat.  Really.  He rarely cares what’s in it, but when I’m looking for brownie points, I throw in bacon and/or pepperoni.  I do it for the look on his face.  How strange it is to see him look lovingly at a brunch food.  This next Call is looking for your strange figurations–and not just the faces.  Take a look…

I need a food segue about Colorado, but did you know that Colorado doesn’t even have a state food?  So bizarre.  Truth be told, when I hear Colorado— specifically, Pueblo, Colorado–I always think of the PSAs that ran between Saturday morning cartoons when I was little.  I am sure I am giving away my age, but I can clearly remember having a milk mustache and hearing, “For more information, write to ‘Pueblo, Colorado, 81009’,” (home of the  Federal Citizen Information Center). It is a shame that sort of random trivia doesn’t make me a genius.  This next Call hails from Pueblo, and genius would come in handy.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from Kadoya Gallery (Pueblo, CO) for Industrial.  This gallery claims its focus as “emerging creative genius”! What’s not to love about that criteria?  I’m full of creative genius.  You too?

Industrial

 

One may characterize industrial as large metal structures, both new and aged, twisting and climbing their way into focus, tightly-wound steel cables, factory floors, and the heavy iron of old railroad trusses. Within the notion of the industrial, however, there is an human emotional attachment connected to the laborer and labor movement, as well. We challenge you to take this subject in any direction and focus you may feel fits the theme.

I wax nostalgic around holidays, and Mother’s Day made me think of pimento loaf.  When I was around 7, my father & I lived in Little Rock, Arkansas.  My Mom wasn’t around (that’s a long story for another time), and my Dad made all my lunches.  In his mind, pimento loaf was an appropriate lunch meat for a 7 year old.  At night, I would sneak to the bedroom door and whisper “peanut butter & jelly” while he prepared to make my lunch–subliminal influence.  I quit getting pimento loaf, and at least 3 days a week, I got Goober Grape®.  My Dad never mentioned it.  This next Call also conjures images of childhood for me.  Maybe my childhood wasn’t the standard.  Hmmm…

Road trips are not great for the fit of my performance clothing.  My husband and I are musicians, and we have a lot of shows for the summer.  Many of those shows require a drive of at least a few hours.  That means road food.  The danger is that I will eat french fries at every stop, punctuated by the occasional order of homemade potato chips.  I eat the eggs at Waffle House just to have an excuse to eat the hashbrowns.  I have a potato problem.  Can you tell.  it is going to be a long summer, ha.  This next Call is all about being on the road–not just the food that accompanies a road trip.  Take a look…
