I’ll take mine
TO GO, PLEASE
Road trip food rocks. Even bad food results in a good story about bad food. You can’t miss a burger at The Varsity in Atlanta or a frozen hurricane at Pat O’Brien’s in New Orleans. But, don’t dismiss the hole in a wall on a back road with one blinking light and a frog legs special either. This next Call will have you reminiscing about your road trips too. Take a look…
Check out this Call for Entries from the Northbrook Public Library (Northbrook, IL) for their annual juried show, called Journeys this year. The entry fee is reasonable. There is NO COMMISSION taken by the show promoters, and this year’s theme will warm the cockles of your heart and get you read for the Spring art season! Don’t miss this one…
