I prefer immediate gratification, be it chocolate or laundry. I simply don’t like to wait.  That is one of the many reasons that I don’t bake chocolate soufflés–because I cannot handle the agony of seeing if it will turn out beautiful and puffed or flat and dreary.  I lose enthusiasm for the whole laundry process during the dry time too (not that I am generally very enthused about it to start with).  Although, I will take soufflé baking over laundry any day of the week.  This next Call is a perfect opportunity for you to contemplate the passage of time, and not just of food and laundry. Think about it…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Kiernan Gallery in Lexington, VA for In Time. This entry fee is low, and I love the concept of contemplating the passage of time, a reflection if you will. Take a look!

Learn more about the Kiernan Gallery!Time is an essential element of science, philosophy, and religion. Nonetheless its definition has continuously eluded the greatest minds.

In a sense, every photograph is an embodiment of time.

Never miss a food field trip, be it big or small.  Like anything else in life, if you miss an opportunity, sometimes you simply don’t ever get the chance again.  Perfect example, I have lots of business in California these days in regards to this blogging empire (ha), personal art shows, group shows, etc., but because I didn’t visit The American Center for Wine, Food and the Arts when I DIDN’T have business in California, the opportunity is lost.  Their doors closed in 2008.  Pick the grapes when they are ripe, folks.  This next call is an opportunity in an entirely different kind of Center.  Don’t miss this one…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Center for Photographic Art (Carmel, CA) for their 2012 Juried Art Exhibition.  The cash prizes are great, and you’ve still got over 6 weeks to submit.  Take a look…

I am not a beer drinker.  Yet, I am married to a home brewer of beer.  Go figure.  I’ve never been fond of many beers with the exception of Red Stripe and Grolsch, prefering wine instead.  Interestingly enough, I love the smell of beer.  This next Call is for a space just under a boozer (UK slang for a bar), just in case you want a tasty bite along with a pint.  Take a look…

Submissions are sought from artists and creative practitioners and anyone who makes work that they think would fit the space.

I am a fan of bold flavors, but I’ve never developed a taste for caraway seeds also known as rye.  The one exception to my caraway seed rule is pumpernickel rye bread.  Maybe it is the earthy texture of the pumpernickel and the more practical everyday uses for bread that make it my exception.  This next Call is my second exception for acceptable rye.  This is a great holiday opportunity…

I’ve never been much of a milk drinker.  So it is easy to forget how much dairy I consume. I recently had to start taking Cipro, a really strong antibiotic, to try to knock out a irritatingly persistent ear infection, and it can’t be taken with dairy products.  I’m on day 5 of a 10 regiment, and I had no idea it would make my life so complicated.  Speaking of dairy, did you know that Monterey Jack cheese was made by the Mexican Franciscan friars of Monterey, California, during the 19th century?  If you go to the opening of your solo show that you got by sending a proposal to this Call, let me know if they still make it there.  Better yet, pick some up for me…

I prefer to drink my soup.  Chowder and stew?  Give me a spoon and a bowl, but soup calls for the perfect cup.  The handle has to be big enough for me to slide my four fingers through, warming my palm against the cup.  Should be sturdy enough to keep the soup warm while I sip, but not too heavy to hold for the duration.  This next Call might give me a way to drink my soup out of a beautiful piece of art.  Trip to Louisiana anyone?

Learn more about the Illusions and Chemistry show from the Kiernan Gallery!Alternative process photography today is a hybrid of historical techniques and contemporary ideas.  Despite, or perhaps because of, the digital revolution, early printing processes are in revival.  Whether it is in reaction to digital, or a hybrid process aided by the technology, these techniques remain as evocative and dreamy as they ever were, bringing a unique style to present-day ideas.

Why is tuna cassarole, of all things, the “go to” dish to take to a family in mourning?  I find tuna cassarole depressing, and depression is not supposed to be the end result of taking a covered dish to a family suffering loss.  You are supposed to comfort them, make their life simpler by elimating the need to cook.  I’m telling you… they throw all 14 of the tuna cassaroles in the trash.  I’m just saying that if you feel the need to every bring food to my house, I prefer soup or chocolate anything.  This next Call asks that you contemplate death…and maybe even the food that inevitably accompanies it.  Investigate…
