the DONUTS on the bus

I had a dream last night that I was a member of an elite task force who job was to stop the getaway of bandits driving cars with Boston-creme-doughnut wheels.  I deployed tack strip which led to doughnut bits everywhere and creme filling running in the streets.  Ummm, yeah, I’m concerned too.  This next Call is all about your dreams.  I’m betting you have something that fits this theme…

ENTRY FEE: $25 for up to 3, $5 ea. add’l

pushups POPS

I remember chasing the ice cream truck and cycling away, post chase, peeling the paper away from my treasure with both hands and trying not to crash into a parked car or a jay-walking pedestrian.  In my current neighborhood, the roads are only two lanes, the tourist traffic is crazy, and there aren’t any kids on bicycles –or ice cream trucks.  I wonder if I can still ride.  Hmmm.  This next call is all about the bicycle or cycling.  I love the memories this theme conjures…

The benefits of a vegetarian diet are undeniable, but only by most reports, only 3-6% of Americans follow a plant-based diet.  But why?  Volumes have been written expounding on the “why”, but I am just grateful for the ability to make choices –good or bad.  This next Call offers you choices and could be of benefit to you and the venue.  Take a look…

all JUICED up

I have to learn to stop reading the comments sections on social media posts.  Even when I think I found a safe, foodie-friendly post, I end up amazed by the viciousness of the battles over juice as the fiber-less evil cousin of fruit or the severing of parental rights over cereal as breakfast food.  Do our food choices speak to the human condition, or is it how we judge others that speaks to our place in the world?  I am always happy to hear your thoughts.  This next Call would also like to know what you have to say about the human condition.  Investigate…

THEME: The Human Condition “The visual narrative of the artist’s work should speak to the human condition:  from joy to despondence, kind fortune to adversity, liberating freedom of expression to agonies of suppression. These myriad strongholds of energies, which hopefully inspire your works, should speak to us as they represent your brightest or darkest experiments and enlightening realizations in your life and should be represented as such here in your fine artwork for us to absorb and potentially integrate into our own lives.  So, your submitted creations should express the subject as felt through the artist’s empathy or subjective eye of experience.  The message is meant for us, the viewer.”

mellow MELON

I am melon obsessed lately.  Watermelon & canteloupe are around $.50/lb. or less, and I can’t seem to get enough.  I’m having them for on the side of oatmeal at breakfast, with cottage cheese & salads at lunch, and they’ve even become dessert stand-ins.  I’m excited about high value nutrition and low-cost; it doesn’t always work out quite that way.  This next Call is a selling show with a price cap, making it an affordable way for fans to become collectors.  Take a look…

I sent my husband to the farmers market for turnips & beets.  He came home with honey & peaches.  I suppose it isn’t like going to the grocery where there are a proscribed list of possible foods you will encounter.  Instead, the farmers market offers an almost endless range of possibilities within your growth climate, lending itself to surprises, naturally.  This next Call is hoping for those same possibilities.  Send them a peach…

ROLLING into spring

It matters little how well you cook if you have missing ingredients.  I’m addicted to simple homemade spring rolls; fresh produce transforms into crispy little treasures. But, for the past couple of months, I’ve been unable to locate spring roll wrappers locally.  Because of their delicate nature, I hesitate to have them shipped because if they arrive cracked, all their stuffing pops out when baked.  Funny how one misses a simple $3 material when it has become a staple.  This next Call is all about the materials.  Take a look…
