TA-DAH!

Cocktail napkins are dangerously creative canvases. I am not known for sketching, but I have created some phenomenal masterpieces on the back of my napkin while sipping a Cosmo at happy hour or while enjoying a hot toddy after dinner. Now that I think about it, maybe it is the alcohol and not the napkins, ha. This next Call wants your sketches. Take a look…

SHINE ON!

It is all about local food, regardless of where local is. In South Carolina, it was boiled peanuts and mustard-based barbeque. In Tennessee, it is Ole Smoky Moonshine and free-range chicken (as in…it wanders around your neighbor’s yard). Soon for me, it will be blackberries from my backyard. Local is where YOU are.

RACE YOU
to the party

I plan a Kentucky Derby party each year, well, abstractly speaking. The party never actually happens, but my intentions are always good. I dream of andouille sausage with black-eyed peas and lobster with truffle oil. But in the end, I remember that mint juleps don’t require a party and excuse myself from the planning. I recommend a small amount of planning for the next Call, at least abstractly…

PAPER
COOKIES?

In one of my fantasy lives, I am a cake, cookie and pastry decorator. I know it isn’t going to happen, but it is a great day dream.

CALL for ENTRIES: Annual Axis Gallery Juried

Posted on April 19, 2012 by R.L. Gibson

RECIPE for
SUCCESS

Like many of you, I frequently “wing it” in the kitchen. I like the idea of cooking with whatever you have on hand and making adjustments according to taste along the way. However, while editing a recipe for a friend recently, I realized there is a certain comfort in knowing the exact amount of salt to put in the potatoes. There is comfort in not guessing the temperature or constantly checking the oven to see if your famous apple pie is ready. Take comfort in the fact that this Call is a well-established show with lots of room for research. Time to create your own recipe…

I am endlessly grateful that you put up with my food ramblings. If I talked about food to any one person as much as I do you, they would avoid me like the plague. It is our trade off.
