stinky cheese

When I was 25, I was still drinking wine coolers in place of wine.  I was just on the verge of truly understanding the complexity of flavors that would lead me down a path of food obsession.  At 19, I spent a year in cooking school, but at 25, I explored the world of cheese.  Everything else is history.  This next call gives you a chance to be a part of a 25-year history of exhibitions.  Take a look…

Merlot sings to me.  But the next morning, I will harm anyone attempting to sing to me.  I am allergic to the tannins after years of enjoying the taste of an earthy glass at art openings.  Now, just one glass makes me feel like I’ve been hit by a bus.  I still have a glass occasionally and deal with the consequences.  This next Call wants to see how you deal with the consequences.  Fabulous…

Why does beer come in six packs?  My house is dotted with six packs.  It isn’t like THAT.  I am NOT a beer drinker, but my husband IS a beer brewer.  My son’s room would be far less cluttered if beer were more efficiently packaged.  Did I forget to mention that my husband stores his beer under my 12-year-old’s bed? Okay, I am going to stop before this sounds even worse.  This call is a much better use of things that come in sixes.  Take a look…

anyone?

Heart smart foods have become the norm in my house.  I have scary-low blood pressure, and my doc says it makes me far less likely to have a heart attack or stroke.  However, my husband is one of those string beans that can consume 5000 calories per day.  If Captain Consumption is going to grow old with me, the meats are going to have to be lean, the vegetables plentiful, whole grains a constant and cheese…just an occasional indulgence.  This next show is in the Heartland; do you think they eat any heart-healthier there?  Let me know…

Surprised!

Salt and pepper are the basics of all seasoning.  Given nothing else, you can still do wonders with this pair.  However, while menu-planning for an upcoming cabin vacation with my family, I have had to take sodium content into mind for my mother’s sake.  WOW!  What an eye opener.  One-half a frozen average-size pepperoni pizza (3 slices of 6) has her recommended sodium intake for 2.5 days.  I suppose that too much of a good thing really does exist.  This next call involves the basics of art…sketching.  Take a look!

Some foods speak for themselves and almost don’t need to be tasted.  A beautiful mound of dark chocolate makes my mouth water before I ever taste or smell it.  I can imagine the taste of ripe raspberries and blackberries by just conjuing the image in my head.  Think about the psychologically healing power of chicken soup (or in my case, junk food).  Food speaks, and so should your work.  This next Call wants art that speaks.  This could be a great year-long opportunity for you…
