BEANS?

My mother cans green beans for me every year, and when I arrive to pick them up for winter back stock, her questions is always, “Greens or beans?”  Apparently toward the end of the canning batch, the last few jars have an excess of beans from the ones that fell out of the greens while cooking.  My mother thinks those little beans are the star of the show, while I’ll take the greens every time.  If your your smallest art could be the star of the show, this next Call just might be for you.  Take a look…

Tiny Divas

Bold. Talented. Demanding. Idolized.

Whether they are known for their powerhouse vocals and intoxicating talent or their over-the-top, won’t-stop, vogue-til-you-drop life and style, a true diva is a muse to the masses. With public response shifting between veneration and vilification, divas captivate, terrify and inspire. They unapologetically demand devotion while remaining utterly unapproachable, keeping the world at a measured distance.

Non-Fiction Gallery wants to bring the celebrity divine within reach.  Rather than choosing the more obvious route of “large persona, larger artwork,” the gallery’s next juried show will feature the world’s favorite superstars on a pocket-sized scale.  Show them your smallest works inspired by the biggest and boldest doyennes.

BANANAS

Everyone has to eat on the run sometimes.  Not every meal can be separated into  courses that stretch out over 2 hours.  But, compact meals don’t have to be of lesser quality just because they are rushed.  My favorite all-in-one breakfast is bananas with crunchy peanut or almond butter with a few berries chopped for the top. Compact but quality–just like this 4 in 1 Call.  Take a look…

EGGY

How is it that quiche became girly food?  I was at a cafe recently that specializes in quiche.  The waitress was reciting the day’s specials to a neighboring table of guests when the man interrupted her to say, “I’m not interested in quiche; I’m a MAN.” Really?  It is eggs, cream and cheese.  I thought, “Maybe it is due to the pie form.”  But, men eat pie, right?  I don’t understand his reasoning, but I restrained myself from asking for the sake of the man sitting at my table.  Maybe this next Call is looking for the quiche-goodness in women only.  Maybe.  Investigate…

If you work on a bicycle (cop, messenger, etc), how do you bring your lunch to work?  It isn’t as though bike messengers ride around on trikes with baskets on the back.  Are they, by nature of their transportation, doomed to eat out for lunch everyday.  I’m going to assume they make a special lunch bag just for cyclists.  This next Call is all about the bicycle as well.  Take a look…

The hot-fresh-now doughnut purveyor is very popular during tourist season in the Smokies.  Summertime often means a car line for the drive thru stretches for a 1/4 mile down the Parkway.  I don’t understand.  I’ll stand in line, or sit in line, for a lot of foods, but why doughnuts?  Donuts with a K are everywhere aren’t they?  What makes them so special while you’re on vacation?  It baffles me.  This next Call does NOT baffle me, and the name is all about the lines.  Check out the gallery and/or online show choice.  Interesting option…

I usually like to get food as close to the source or source process as possible.  But, I cannot bring myself to love Mexican chocolate.  Most of the world uses a conche for varying lengths of time to incorporate cocoa butter within chocolate.  The longer the processing, the smoother the chocolate.  But Mexican chocolate is still often stone-ground which produces a gritty texture.  I am addicted to dark chocolate, but I want it smoooooth.  This next Call offers the opportunity for you to be dark and either smooth or gritty.  To each their own…
