CALL for ENTRIES: The Sketchbook Project

Posted on December 9, 2014 by R.L. Gibson

HERRING
pickled, not red

My pantry is a library of food fads and favorites. You’ll find canned tomatoes from my mother (necessary to all of my favorite dishes) and high-fat coconut milk (necessary to all quiet indulgences). Then there is the the fruit cocktail, quince marmalade, pickled herring, kimchi, a jar of black lime & a few dried apricots left over from some food obsession or experiment that either went awry or with which I got bored. I can’t bring myself to get rid of the non-expired food no matter how random because they occasionally inspire genius. This next Call displays the beauty of collecting and sometimes inspires genius. This is a beautiful idea…

Check out this Call for Entries from The Brooklyn Art Library for The Sketchbook Project (SBP 2015). Send your work on tour of museums and galleries across North America for as little as $25! Since the last time I mention SBP, there is now a digitized option! Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: 52nd Masur

Posted on December 4, 2014 by R.L. Gibson

EARLY
to rise?

Breakfast is beloved in my house. Everywhere I have ever lived, including some time in the Virgin Islands, breakfast has been the biggest meal of the day because it was always the cheapest. Even tiny islands in the Caribbean can raise chickens instead of importing eggs. So, a cheeseburger might be $18, but breakfast was always under $5. Those days have passed, and breakfast can be a pricey endeavor. It is apparently even more expensive if you get up a little later and call it brunch. Start your morning with this next Call because it is definitely cheaper than brunch. 🙂 Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries for the 52nd Annual Juried Exhibition from the Masur Museum of Art (Monroe, LA). $10 entry fee, no commission, and the gallery is stunning. This is a great opportunity!

QUANTITIES

I’ve learned not to limit myself with numbers. One protein, 1 starch, 1 veggie is simply an outline, not a rule. Ask Baskin Robbins®–they once thought 31 flavors was the end all be all. Heinz® used to boast 57 varieties; they now have over 5,700. This next Call is number 58, and I’m confident it won’t be the last. Take a look…

BUFFET

I spent my pre-adolescence & formative culinary years in a small Georgia town. It wasn’t all peanuts but more a montage of scenes including fried foods, all-you-can-eat buffets, red-clay stained feet & knees, and demolition derbies. But in hindsight, I think those scenes were more about my family and less about the place– Marietta, Georgia. This next Call is proof of the fantastic opportunities & venues found in Marietta/Cobb County. I am in love with this venue. Please don’t miss this opportunity…

Because you know I’ve been a foodie for so many years, it should come as no surprise that my weight has fluctuated for decades. I have been everything from a size 8 to a size 24 over the years. I have given up carbs, given up fat, eaten only fruit, eaten only soup… You name it, and I’ve tried it. Nothing ever worked for long. Then I was forced to quit eating wheat, and my weight stabilizes. Go figure. I’m not a size 8, or a 24, but I haven’t gained or lost more than 2 lbs in 8 months. This next Call is all about YOUR figure. Take a look…

clean your
SLATE

While on vacation, I ate slate grilled baby back ribs for the first time. Yum. You have to get past the idea that the slate is porous and might contain other food cooties from previous usage because that is part of what makes cooking with slate fantastic.

CONFESSIONS
of an empty-headed

The holy grail of culinary education is the Cordon Blue, and more recently, the Culinary Institutes of America. I attended Johnson & Wales for a year and continue to be grateful for all that I learned. I put me on the path to being the food-lover that I am. And honestly, without the foodie side of me, I’m not sure this blog would have made it. It gave me a brand, a platform if you will, to set AAAD apart from all the art deadlines out there. Many feel that museum exhibits are the holy grail of art shows, and this next Call could be your holy grail. Take a look…

CHOCOLATE
dreams

I’m waiting for Valentine’s Day chocolates to be in the stores any day now. After all, Christmas decorations were out before Halloween. If my husband ever bought me a cheesy box of chocolates for this faux-holiday, I would fall on the floor in shock. Chocolate? Sure. Heart shaped box? Not yet, thankfully. I appreciate that corporate America creates holidays so that we can all schedule time to tell those we love how much they mean, but it doesn’t mean you have to celebrate the way they tell you to. This next Call is a much better way to celebrate Valentine’s day. Take a look…

LAZY DAYS

Chili mac is in the crock pot right now. Mmmhmm, sophisticated. I spend a lot of time talking about gourmet foods, but it is cold and drizzly outside. And since I cannot spend a couple of balmy days in Louisiana soaking up the warm, humid goodness… I made chili mac instead of grilled portobellos with homemade pesto over flax seed, whole wheat pasta. Don’t judge me–or my chili mac. This next Call is enticing me, if only because I am dreaming of attending a Louisiana opening. Take a look…
