CALL for ENTRIES: small works BIG TALENT

Learn more about the "small works BIG TALENT" exhibit from Las Lagunas Gallery!beware the DELI MEATS

My first encounter with a peppercorn was in olive loaf. My father deluded himself into the notion that a seven year old was the target audience for this studded meat product.  I survived.  I love olives, and fresh peppercorns make my stock & dressings sing. (I still shun the loaf of olive, though.)  Both olives & peppercorns are perfect example huge impact in tiny packages — the inspiration for the next Call.  Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Winter 2016

Learn more about the Open Call for Winter 2016 exhibits from Field Projects!DINNER roulette

Grocery lists should be derived from menus, however, I lack the discipline to make a menu every week and the fortitude to endure a grocery trip long enough to sustain a week of daily menus.  As a result, we buy random groceries and the menus are developed based on what we happen to have on hand at the moment.  The advantage is that sometimes we trip across unbelievable recipes just by narrowing the ingredients by availability.  This next Call chooses a theme AFTER receiving the submissions.  How fun is THAT? You don’t have to fit a mold; the MOLD fits you…

Check out this Call for Entries from Field Projects (NYC) for Winter 2016 (Show #34).  $25 entry for all artists & all media. Plus, this entry submits your work for consideration for future shows as well.  Ah, the elusive NYC artist opportunity…

sweet TATERS

I am mourning the upcoming loss of eggplant which goes out of season locally very soon.  But with the end of one season, come the beginning of another.  My beloved sweet potatoes are at their sweetest, and the upcoming frost in late October or early November will make them perfection.  I cannot wait.  Try it.  Buy a sweet potato now, then wait until December or January and try them again.  The difference is astonishing.  This next Call is like the sweet potato, anxiously anticipated and finishes sweet.  Take a look…

Learn more about the Photo Shoot 2016 Exhibit from the Black Box Gallery in Portland, OR!PRODUCE unboxed, unbagged

Grocery cashiers aren’t my biggest fans.  They seem to take issue with my lack of packaging.  Why do my two lemons need to be in a plastic bag?  Onions come in their own wrapping.  Why would I protect them from getting dirty when I am just going to peel them? Is it really that hard to corral my summer squash and carrots outside of a bag or box?  This next Call is a great reason to think inside the “box”.  Just leave your produce unfettered. Take a look…

My kitchen is awash with hot peppers.  A trip to our UT Farmers Market resulted in a bounty of experimental varietals of habenero & Scotch bonnet peppers.  I moved them from a paper bag to the dehydrator trays, and three hand washes later, my hands were still on fire.  The maker in me couldn’t let go of the idea that I need to preserve them for use over the winter.  The maker in me tries to find a use for every extra.  How does your maker-thinker-feeler side affect your work?  This Call wants to know.  Take a look…

While traveling around the country, people often ask what food I miss most from home.  The truth is, what I really miss is tea — unsweetened, cold-but-not-iced, sans caffeine.  I drink at least a gallon a day.  I can make it on the road, but it isn’t the same.  Different water, different container, different refrigerator.  When I am nearly home from a road trip, I always think the same thing, “I can’t wait to get home & have a glass of tea” (and see my family and dog, yeah, yeah, I know).  This next call wants to know what “home” is to you.  Take a look…
