CALL for ENTRIES: Scapes II

Posted on October 8, 2015October 8, 2015 by R.L. Gibson

PUMPKIN
jack

Everywhere I go there are pumpkins. Big orange jack-o-lantern-style pumpkins are everywhere –shipped in from farms across the state. Funny enough, while my neighbors (along with most of the country) are obsessed with pumpkin-flavored everything, there are almost NO pumpkins meant for cooking (sugar pumpkins) to be found in grocery stores. Trust me, you don’t want to make a pie out of a carving pumpkin. Ick. This next Call wants to know about your landscape, seascape, etc. Your “scape” doesn’t have to be orange, BTW…

Check out this Call for Entries from Art-Competition.net for Scapes II. Only $20 to enter & open to all 2-dimensional media including digital art. The cash prizes are doubled this time…

don’t FEED
the rats

Rats, when tested, will develop cancer. Have you heard that satirical proverb? I believe it is/was meant to be a comment on the number of carcinogens identified by animal testing. Well, I have another one for you. Food, when processed, will become unhealthy. Okay, maybe that one isn’t so satirical. Check out this list of 7 Foods People Think are Healthy, but Aren’t. But, I suspect most of you are far too food savvy to have thought they were healthy, so check out the list of seven media that are eligible for this next Call. It’s worth a look…

PEPPERS
only smaller

My whole house smells like peppers & basil at the moment. A recent Saturday trip to the farmers market ended with a huge surplus of these staples, but to prevent loss, I am dehydrated both. Then I will grind, chop or crumble most of these into a smaller form for storage and use this winter. This next Call could be an outlet for new work, but it could be an excellent way to compact and move out studies or older work. I encourage you to contemplate cutting down your work. Yes, I DID say, “cutting down your work”…

E-WORD

My family is tired of eggs (aka the e-word). We have lost access to farm fresh eggs temporarily, and as a result, our 3 dozen eggs per week have become a chore.

in a PICKLE

I’ve been studying food preservation, from pickling & water-bath canning to vacuum-sealing & salt-packing. I’ve run across a huge amount of admirable testing, experimentation and success amongst food-enthusiasts, homemakers, homesteaders, preppers & gardners alike. I am open to almost anything culinary at least once, but some folks are out there just purposely trying to make food, well, wrong. Koolickles. I am almost beyond words this time. Koolickles are created by soaking dill pickles in a mixture of Kool-Aid® & pickle brine. Being open doesn’t always work in my favor, but this next Call definitely does. They are open to almost anything, and it doesn’t have to be Koolickles, I promise…

DOUBLE
garden duty

We all eat massive amounts of corn. Since my husband’s Celiac diagnosis, we are a gluten-free household, and it took a lot of work. But, now it is second nature and, really, no big deal. But corn? If I had to try to cut corn out of our diets, we would starve; it is in EVERYTHING. In 2012, the USDA claimed 88% of U.S. corn is GMO. I’m not okay with that, so we are planning an attempt to grow our own soon. Meanwhile, did you know that corn does excellent double duty as a trellis for growing peas? Plus, the peas supply much-need nitrogen to the soil for the corn. Don’t you just love nature? It is in the nature of this next Call to offer DOUBLE the prizes. Make us proud…

PIZZA
hot off the printer

I need a food replicator. The replicator from the Quark Bar (Star Trek) would be a stand out in any kitchen. Although I have to admit that using 3D printing technology for food gives me pause. I can’t wrap my brain around the ingredients that could take so little space that it would fit in my kitchen but yet be able to create an almost infinite variety of foods. Freaky, no? There must be science I am just not comprehending. But, I have to admit the pizza pictured here doesn’t look half bad. This next Call wants to see how YOU use the technology. Fascinating…

blush

Red is undeniably my favorite color. I find myself drawn to red tones in food, from salmon to cherry Jell-o, Bloody Mary’s to pomegranates. Go figure. But recently I tripped across golden raspberries. How had I missed them all these years? They are slightly sweeter & milder than the traditional red variety, and I am willing to admit that I like them better in some instances. I feel like such a traitor. The next Call is the perfect red celebration. I like this group exhibit…
