CALL for ENTRIES: True Colors 2

Posted on May 15, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

TOM-A-TO
-ish

It is finally warm enough to be seeing a few normal tomatoes at the market. I have suffered through a winter FULL of day-glow tomatoes that are hard as rocks and completely tasteless. I think out-of-season growers spray them with something to make them have an appealing color, but they just end up disappointing when I get them home. Do not disappoint the purveyors of this Next Call with a lack of color. Investigate…

CALL for ENTRIES: Memory

Posted on May 14, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

POPCORN
and peanuts

I eat popcorn almost everyday. My most recent obsession is dousing it with loads of chili powder, but for a long time, it was Parmesan cheese. Popcorn is a memory trigger food for me; my Dad ate it every night with garlic salt with a side of Coke with peanuts (or Tab). It’s a Southern thing. What are your memory triggers? This next Call wants to know…

CALL for ENTRIES: Map It

Posted on May 13, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

YOU HAVE BEEN
located

I’m amazed by the trivial information I learn from the paper placemats at my favorite Chinese restaurant. I know the ins and outs of the Chinese Calendar. I know I was born in the Year of the Rat. And now that they have incorporated a local map for visitors to the area, I now know where all the trolley stops are located and where I can park for free. Never discount the importance of a map…or a placemat. This next Call is all about the map, not the placemat…

REMINDER: 3rd Coast National

Posted on May 12, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

SPRING
fling

I was so excited for Spring to arrive. Well, Spring is here, and I actually contemplated having chili for dinner. The forecast in Gatlinburg actually hints that we might have snow flurries in May. It makes me want to high-tail it to the closest coast for seafood and sandy feet. Maybe I should enter this next show so I have an excuse to visit the Coast for the opening. Investigate…

Posted on May 10, 2013May 22, 2013 by R.L. Gibson

PASS THE SAUCE

Summer in the South means shorts and barbeque. We’re just around the corner from our local BBQ festival, and I cannot wait.

CELERY ME

I am fascinated by food parings. Who knew poached pears and blue cheese would be a perfect combination? Peanut butter and celery. No really, peanut butter and celery is like a healthy version of chicken and waffles. This next Call wants to make you a part of a winning combination next year. This is a fantastic opportunity…

SWEAT

Field Day is right around the corner for my son. Do you remember Field Day? It was the much-hyped day of outdoor fun and competition we were all supposed to anticipate it with such joy. Not.

TAG…
you’re it

I really have to start putting tags on my frozen food. I spent a couple of hours waiting for chipotle peppers in adobe sauce to thaw for my black been burgers only to find out that it was left over sloppy joe sauce–NOT an acceptable substitute. I even keep a Sharpie® in my kitchen drawer to put labels on Ziploc® bags, but what do I do about all the glass freezer containers? It’s like leftover roulette in my kitchen. This next show is sponsored by the TAG…

CHEESE

I would hurt somebody for macaroni and cheese right now. No, I’m not pregnant, but my craving for foods has been a little nutty lately. Oddly enough, I usually crave carbohydrate laden, comfort food like macaroni & cheese in Winter, not Spring. I suppose some cravings are just primal (or so I am going to claim when I indulge later). This next Call speaks to the primal as well. Take a look…
