my CREME-filled heart

My husband and I celebrated our 20th anniversary with Chinese takeout because neither of felt like cooking or grocery shopping.  It was our typical night egg drop soup & steamed dumplings, but the thing that made the night a celebration came in a paper bag.  A beautiful, fresh chocolate eclair from our local doughnut shop, a guilty pleasure from the middle years of our marriage when that was one of the only splurges we could afford.  Since then, I tend to watch my sugar intake and my husband was diagnosed with a wheat allergy.  But with a that single damn-the-consequences pastry, I felt the heart flutter that says he’ll stick for another twenty.  Some of the best things come in, or on, paper just like in this next Call.  Plus the gallery is gorgeous…

Check out this Call for Entries from Barrett Art Center (Poughkeepsie, NY) for Pushing Paper.   This venue is spectacular, and venues open to cutting edge work are always appreciated.  Take a look…
