a mixed bag of
GROCERIES

I loosely plan a weekly menu each week by making sure there are at least seven proteins, seven green vegetables and a handful of starches available in the kitchen. From those offerings, I try to make every week different. But, since the proteins are almost always a couple of versions of same pork, beef, chicken and/or fish, making 52 different menus a year is a stretch. And, I might add that there are only so many ways to prepare zucchini & broccoli. But this next Call is the 52nd time this Call has been offered, and I promise the result has been different each and every time. Maybe this is THE opportunity for you…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Beaumont Art League (Beaumont, TX) for the 2014 BAL National juried exhibition. This the 52nd consecutive year for this exhibit. This is their premier yearly exhibit. Take a look…

JUROR: Born in New York and educated at the acclaimed Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, Vera Barnett moved to Texas in 1985. She began using pool toys as still life subjects, but felt a desire for more emotional and personal subjects. Her solution was to create her own models from sewn plastic. Barnett’s process yields paintings injected with emotions that are authentically human, yet fabricated through completely synthetic materials.

AWARDS: Cash awards totaling over $3,000 will be given out for 1st through 3rd places and purchase awards! Awards will be announced at the opening reception on May 3, 2014.

SALES: BAL retains a 30% commission of the sale price of work sold during the exhibition. BAL will collect payment and state sales tax.

CHEESE
off the old block

Cheese food is not cheese. You’re allowed to like American cheese; feel free. But, don’t take comfort in the idea that you are eating a natural cheese. It is manufactured from milk, whey, milkfat, milk protein concentrate, whey protein concentrate, saturated oils; emulsifiers, salt & artificial coloring–and that’s assuming you aren’t consuming a diet variety. Think of it this way…if the cheese can’t stand alone, then maybe it shouldn’t have the spotlight in any of your meals. This next Call is looking for a big cheese (or six) to put in the spotlight. Are you a big cheese?

Check out this Call for Entries from Penn State Altoona (Altoona, PA) for the Ivyside Juried Art Competition for solo shows at the Misciagna Family Center for Performing Arts. The entry fee is only $10 for up to 24 images. This is a great academic opportunity at a really low price!

MOUTH

I dislike the semantics of having an “open mind”. Doesn’t that, quite literally, mean that anything can go in and out? I don’t want that for my mind any more than I want that for my menu. I simply will not abide even a “devil’s advocate” argument on some subjects anymore because for me, wrong is wrong. I feel the same way about food. I’ve tried an impossibly large number of foods over the years. I will not even entertain the possibility of tasting some foods anymore. Grubs might be fantastic or even taste like my favorite stinky cheese, but I won’t be eating them, EVER. Call me closed-minded AND closed-mouthed in this respect. Luckily, this next show is wide open. Investigate…

CALL for ENTRIES: Kingdom

wild FOOD

I live less than a mile from one of the boundaries of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. I also live only a mile from downtown; however, my town has a tiny population of around 3500 residents. My location has a profound impact on the food I eat. The availability of exotic foods is relatively limited unless you count game meats which are prevalent even in upscale restaurants. I keep a clean grill because predators are a REAL, not imagined, threat. I don’t hike or cook in the woods alone because black bears do eat people occasionally. Where I live defines what I eat and my relationship with the “wild kingdom.” This next Call wants to know all about YOUR relationship with animals. Take a look…

not just
RICE-A-RONI

Famous dishes and food fads are not a new phenomenon. Consider Hangtown Fry, named after Placerville, CA (then known as Hangtown), where it is reported to have been invented in the 1850s. A bacon & oyster omelet, yep. Although it originated in Placerville, it was really made famous years later by San Francisco, an hour from Placerville, from hence the oysters where usually shipped. Yes, I managed to bring it back around to locally-sourced ingredients. This next Call is also famous and from San Francisco. Peas in a pod…

read to me of
FOOD

My mother loves to read. I grew up in a house full of books–including cook books. Maybe I’ll add one of my own cookbooks to her collection some day. One of my favorite cookbooks is The Vegetarian Epicure. The author, Anna Thomas once said, “We all eat, and it would be a sad waste of opportunity to eat badly.” That one statement changed my life and how I approach feeding both myself and my family. Books have a way of doing that, changing things, I mean. And, I would make the argument that food changes you as well, for better or worse, depending on your choices. This next Call give you a chance to change a life with a book. Investigate…

one POTATO
two POTATO
zero GRAPES

My Dad always loved to munch on raw potatoes when prepping them for some portion of a meal. No joking. Honestly, the only other being I know that loves raw potatoes is my dog Pepper. She loves them almost as much as cabbage and carrots. Her ultimate favorite was white grapes; then I learned they could lead to renal failure. (Apparently not many of you knew that either since no one responded when I wrote this post.) So, veggies it is, potatoes included. This next Call doesn’t necessarily want to know so much about what you feed them as much as your love for them. Take a look…

CARROT COIN
for your thoughts?

Yes, we have all heard that carrots are good for your eyes. But, the truth is that carrots contain beta carotene which the body converts to Vitamin A which is good for eye health. But, if a honey and ginger glaze is not enough to get you to eat carrots, never fear. Leaf greens, oily fish like tuna, eggs, nuts and even citrus will help keep your eyes healthy as well. This next call is more interested in your vision than your actual eye sight. But, take a look for yourself…

BUTTER
me up

I am fat obsessed–not with the fat ON me but with the fat IN my food. In October of 2013, I threw away my weight scales. I’m done. My familial relationship with diabetes and my allergy to wheat has forced a reduction of many of the starchy treats I have always loved. But, beautiful, luscious fats like butter and coconut oil have increased to help ease the transition. As a result, MY figure is changing–from the texture and tone of my skin to slow but steady reduction of my double chin. This next Call wants to know all about your figure, of sorts. Take a look…
