STEW?

As Spring heads toward Summer, my house is in full-on busy mode.  With a teenager, 3+ business endeavors and a small-scale entertainment career, sometimes I just crave the opportunity to cook a full meal.  But in the meantime, I am trying to figure out how to make crock-pot meals feel fresh & Spring-like instead of cozy, warm winter stock.  Wish me luck because all I’ve come up with is chicken soup.  The next best thing is to skip Summer meal planning for Winter art planning.  Take a look at this Call…

Check out this Call for Applications from 360 XOCHI QUETZAL Artist & Writers Residency Program (Mexico) for their Winter Residency Program. Free studio, housing & a food stipend.  A month in Mexico to make art!  Really

It is time for fresh fish again, right?  The sun was shining so brightly yesterday, that I had this overwhelming desire to lie in the grass in the sun with a fishing line tied to my big toe…and wait.  The sun on my face tasted like fresh brook trout.  Nonsensical, I know.

I’m craving purple potatoes.  Potatoes have become scarce in my house lately.  Paranoid about my family’s long history of diabetes, we are trying to limit our starch intake to see if my current symptoms can be controlled through diet.  Because we already cut out gluten, I don’t really miss bread.  We’ve never consumed a lot of rice & prefer spaghetti squash or zucchini noodles to pasta.  But oh how I miss the potatoes– the beautiful, majestic purple ones particularly.  I’m sneaking them in as the crust for quiche & pot pies, but the chips & fries & mash are all gone.  I have to reserve all things majestic for this next call.  Love this one…

PICK ME

Not every weed is to be plucked and discarded.  Hopefully no one is spraying chemicals on their garden--either to fertilize OR remove pests; however, I DO want to encourage you to remember that not every weed needs to be removed either.  Chickweed is a perfect example.  If you’re lucky enough to have it sprout in your garden, don’t weed it…eat it.  And you don’t have plant a garden in an open field to find this gem; it even grows in the cracks of sidewalks.  No really.  This next Call DOES, however, make use of an open field.  Investigate…

hard knocks

Unfortunately for my husband, my late Aunt Mildred has been visiting.  Not literally–that would be creepy.  The long standing joke in my family is that my Aunt Mildred never finished anything until the last possible moment.  She hemmed her daughters’ prom dresses while they were in them trying to leave for the prom, and she left all of her kitchen cabinets wide open until she was finished with dinner.  This week alone, I have left kitchen cabinets wide open 4 times.  If I lose count, I only have to count the knots on his head.  So, my family would say, “Hi, Mildred.  Thanks for visiting.”  This next Call is a far better way to be wide open.  Trust me on this one…

CUT YOU

I used to be the queen of the hand cut garnish and/or decorative knife skills.  I think tournée-cut potatoes simply taste better; I do.  But, my recent cooking laziness has forced me to return to a more fresh-cut approach, like carambola (star fruit).  I’ve looked at them decoratively for so many years, I’d forgotten how delicious they really are.  I have not forgotten how delicious the magazine hosting this next Call is however.  I’m thrilled to have them as a sponsor, and I wash bowled over when I received my last hard copy.  Simply beautiful (and tasty)
