CALL for ENTRIES: Urban

or not to sushi

I used to think always equate urban settings with sushi; however, sushi can be found everywhere these days.  I know of a town with a population of approximately 450, and even their local convenience store carries sushi.  I may have to revert to the idea of street vendors or food trucks as urban food.  Or maybe truly urban food is represented not by a specific type of food so much as a large variety of options.  Hmmm.  This next call wants to know how YOU define urban.  Investigate this opportunity…

Check out this Call to Artists for Urban from the Linus Galleries (California). The exhibit offers an online listing as well as the possibility for a showing in one of their brick and mortar galleries. Take a look…

about winter

I am dreaming of a June picnic in the park.  I want crab salad on a beautiful buttery croissant, a bright spinach salad and a large glass of lemonade.  But that will have to wait.  Any picnic in the park right now would involve mittens and down bubble coats.  This next Call could be the perfect chance for my picnicking dreams.  Take a look…

the table

My dining room table is round.  This makes placemats hard to find because the corners prevent the placemat from getting close enough to the edge.  I could buy some ugly plastic ones and trim them, but I want the same beautiful fibers like silk with embroidery or elegant bamboo.  And then I saw them, placements made specifically for round tables.  This has made my month, thank-you-very-much.  This next Call is all about fibers.  Take a look…

I think people drink more wine at the holidays because of all the whining.  Wine won’t stop people FROM whining, but it will certainly help you tune them out.  Bitching, when done correctly, can’t be tuned out–regardless of wine consumption.  This next Call is all about the bitching, but I suspect the wine is welcome too.  Take a look…

dreams

I’m waiting for Valentine’s Day chocolates to be in the stores any day now.  After all, Christmas decorations were out before Halloween.  If my husband ever bought me a cheesy box of chocolates for this faux-holiday, I would fall on the floor in shock.  Chocolate? Sure.  Heart shaped box? Not yet, thankfully.  I appreciate that corporate America creates holidays so that we can all schedule time to tell those we love how much they mean, but it doesn’t mean you have to celebrate the way they tell you to.  This next Call is a much better way to celebrate Valentine’s day.  Take a look…

Never underestimate the power of food.  Grapefruit is now known to interfere with over 70 medications, and many antibiotics have warnings about orange juice.  And I am certain that somewhere there are geneticists trying to modify both of these fruits to fix the problem–which is scary, but I digress.  The world is your buffet, but you have to make your choices carefully.  This next Call looks like a good call to me.   But, take a look for yourself…

a day?

One of the things I miss most about being able to shop at the Farmer’s Market or local orchard during the winter is the ability to get wax-free fruit.  When I see a waxed apple, I have to assume it is really old.  Yes, fruit is waxed to make it “pretty” for consumers, but it is also done to seal in moisture and preserve “weight” for as much as a year.  Pick the ugly fruit, please.  This next Call uses wax in a much better way.  Take a look…
