CALL for ENTRIES: Games: Marbles to Minecraft

Posted on July 11, 2016March 1, 2017 by R.L. Gibson

one POTATO, two POTATOES

I caught my child harvesting poisonous potatoes. Digging up a rare, toxic tater is a good thing I’m told. They weren’t meant for us, luckily, and he didn’t dig them from our yard. He found them in the Desert Biome on Minecraft. If you don’t understand that last sentence, fear not, you can stick to checkers or chess for this next Call. Play through…

squish SQUASH

Need a squash recipe? We should talk. Because they are in-season, inexpensive & always in-stock at my farmer’s market, it seems as though my family eats “crookneck” summer squash & zucchini nearly every day –sauteed, cassarole’d, mashed & even as soup. It is the perfect make-something-with-what-you-have veggie, and it is really, really affordable, sometimes 99¢ or less a pound. This next Call is for really, really affordable art, but I promise their definition is more palatable. Time to purge the studio…

CALL for ENTRIES: Enthusiasm

Posted on July 3, 2016July 3, 2016 by R.L. Gibson

SOUP-y soft spot

I will eat almost anything once, we’ve established this already. But, as a kid, I would not get past the lemon-furniture-polish impression I had of lemongrass and ginger. Luckily I was far more likely to be faced with fried okra than lemongrass as a youngster. As an adult, I am such a fan. A day with a bowl (or three) of Tom Kha soup never ends badly. I’m a little overly enthusiastic about ginger, but perfectly enthusiastic about this Call. Take a look…

flawless FRUIT

I’m taking less food pics in restaurants these days. I’ve been shamed into stopping. How ’bout you? Now when I am served a beautiful dish, I have to weigh whether it is worth the condescending looks of disdain from servers and other patrons. Sigh. The only advantage is that taking pictures at home allows me to use a really camera, not my phone, and get the cherries arranged just so. Plus, now I can re-heat dinner after I get the perfect shot, ha. This next Call is interested in your perfect shots. Take a look…
