stalks for STUFFING

I am dreaming of asparagus. Blanched then marinated in red wine vinaigrette, served cold. Grilled and drizzled with lemon juice. Milled with full-fat ricotta and baked. There are so many ways to love asparagus, but alas, peak season is in April. While we wait, check out this Call that offers art publication two ways –print and digital. Investigate past features…

CALL for ENTRIES: Art in Public Places

Posted on December 11, 2016December 10, 2016 by R.L. Gibson

for the love of SUSHI

Raw fish and seaweed tend to be very polarizing ingredients. Rarely do I meet someone who has a take-it-or-leave-it attitude about sushi. It tends to be love or hate every time. I understand why raw fish lacks appeal for so many. But, I find converting friends into sushi-lovers is often as simple as the surprise lunch. Sushi kitchens are usually spotless; the food is usually delicious & flavorful. Finding lovers of public art is far easier, and this next Call proves it every year. Take a look…

I had to throw out everything in my fridge & freezer Sunday. Due to the wildfire, my house was without power for a week. My groceries stewed. It wasn’t pretty.

Now it is slowing filling with mustard greens, pickled beets & craft beer against a stark white background. It is a whole new energy like this new Call. An art publication opportunity…

color me STUFFED

The Thanksgiving sea of brown food has passed. Luckily, my family forgoes the turkey, dressing, gravy & rolls thereby missing out on a good portion of the brownness of it all. I crave color even in my food. A star of this year’s menu was the beet & clementine salad. Beets are plentiful year around due to how well they do in cold storage. If you are one of those folks that swear they dislike beets, make a point to try them fresh roasted. (Message me for a recipe.) In the meantime, here’s a call that also craves color. Take a look…

fast FARE

The freezer saves dinner about two days a week in my house. We purposefully cook more portions than we can eat and save the leftovers. It started out as a way to send lunch with my kiddo for school, but it has become a dinner rescue regularly. When you get busy and have forgotten to plan for dinner and live nearly a half hour from the closest grocery or restaurant, you’re grateful for frozen leftovers. This next Call is not a leftover or frozen, but I did neglect to plan the publication more than a few days out from the deadline. Sorry about that…

CALL for ENTRIES: Abstract 3

Posted on November 6, 2016November 7, 2016 by R.L. Gibson

FOOD cubed

I recently attended an “abstract” dinner party. I wasn’t quite sure what I was getting into, and that made me MORE eager to attend, ha. Upon arrival, I found that every dish was comprised of food cut in an identical manner. I couldn’t tell cubes of potato from turnip or cubes of yellow carrot from summer squash. From appetizer to entree to dessert, it was an evening of simple foods prepared with time-consuming precision. I was forced to savor the preparation and intent since nothing was representational of its original form. Abstract food. Fascinating. This next Call is all about the abstract as well. Investigate…

NUTS for you

Acorns are edible for people, not just bears; did you know? Why didn’t anyone tell me before now? I didn’t know until I tripped across this article from two years ago.

CALL for ENTRIES: Still Life

goin’ BANANAS

The landscape of my kitchen counter is changing. My day is incomplete without fresh fruit. While the happy dance of the clementines begins soon, it is otherwise just the banana bunny hop for most of the winter. I find that most in-season winter produce is either not finger food (cranberries, pomegranates) and/or expensive (guava, kumquat, kiwi). So clementines & bananas still life it will be. This next Call invites you to create your own still life. Orange you glad? (sorry)
