HAPPY, HAPPY
fruit, fruit
Some foods are simply joyful. The burst of flavor from the cleverly-packaged flesh of the pomegranate is a perfect example. Pomegranates say “Good morning!” “How are you?” and “Zippity Doo Dah” all at the same time. This next Call wants to know what you find joyful. Don’t miss this opportunity…
Check out this Call for Entries from East End Arts (Riverhead, NY) for Joy. The entry fee is on the high end, but still acceptable. I highly recommend closely investigating these two jurors. Take a look…
