pick & EAT

We’re only 10 days into Spring, and I am already making Summer food plans. But just before Summer arrives, we have the glory of pick-your-own-strawberries season. For five or six glorious weeks we eat strawberries so ripe they are almost purple by the basket and bucket-full. I cannot wait. The other way I am going to salute Spring while welcoming Summer is by submitting to this next Call. Take a look…

DESSERT-less

My Chinese take-out night has a routine: egg drop soup, steamed dumplings, Kan Shaw beef & a fortune cookie. My friend who works behind the counter laughs every time I pick up a menu because he knows my order won’t change. Until last week, my husband came home with a bag of neatly stacked fold-up boxes & a pint of steaming soup. Dinner was lovely, but cookie-less. Fortune cookies must now be ordered; they cost 25¢ each. I know the cookies are far from Chinese & the fortunes ridiculous. But, it I love them still. Just when it seems “nothing is free” is confirmed, there comes our next Call. Here is your chance to be included in a group exhibit or have a show of your own, no entry fee. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: IACA Mini Grant

pantry PEPPER

What’s the weirdest pantry staple at your house? It seems like a tiny thing, but my kitchen is rarely without thai chili paste; it has become my go-to source of heat. Typically it is a combo of red chili pepper, garlic, lemongrass, galangal (ginger), salt, shallot, spices & Kaffer lime. It is a balanced flavor for me, regardless of the origin of the dish, and it is easier than roasting a pepper from scratch every time I want to add a little heat. I add it to dishes time and time again. This next Call is one I will probably post time and time again because $9 is a do-able gamble for many of you, and I appreciate the projects they have funded thus far. See if it is right for you…

Check out this Call for Entries from Integrity Arts & Culture Association (Rock Island, IL) for a $250 Mini-Grant. The grant deadline for this year’s second award is almost here. The application is simple & only costs $9. Take a look…
