SKINNY & FAT

125 calories per ounce.  Hikers often aim to only pack foods that have a caloric count of at least 125 calories an ounce.  Can you imagine?  How many people do you know that eat celery because they believe it is an negative calorie food?  Priorities.  I am not an avid hiker.  Honestly, any hike that takes me more than a day is probably out of the question.  But even then I would have to pack food. I would be grateful for calorically dense food, if only because I would have less to carry, ha.  This next Call hails from the ultimate hiking mecca.  Take a look…

FARMING
of sorts

Fresh sea bass, rainbow beets & marinated mozzarella pearls.  The marinade was herbed with basil from my window sill.  The tartar sauce was accented by chow chow canned by my mother with cucumbers & cabbage grown this year.  The only things not fresh were the olive oil, Himalayan salt & Moroccan red pepper.  Is it Spring? Unfortunately not. just the day after a trip to the farmers market.  In my dream world, I would live within walking distance of a fresh market so that every meal could be this wonderful.  This next Call wants to know what fills you with wonder.  Take a look…

BOTTLE

I drink everyday–bottles & bottles of water.  As my alter ego, I perform 4 to 5 days per week, and on stage, I suck down approximately 24 ounces of water every 45 minutes to keep my voice in check.  So, let’s talk about the bottles.  I know that disposable bottles are not ideal due to the waste issue, but I am paranoid about being able to be certain that I am really getting disposable bottles truly clean.  I have searched for a reusable bottle that has a large enough opening (for proper cleaning) but is both very compact (has to fit on a mic stand) and non-descript (so it doesn’t stick out in every picture).  I am open to recommendations.  In the meantime, here’s an idea of what to do with YOUR water.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries from Darkroom Gallery (Essex Junction, VT) for H2O. $24 entry. We’re proud our readers have been both shown & awarded at Darkroom. You know you have work for this theme…

fiends

Every last member of my family is a mustard fiend.  There are rarely ever appearances of plain yellow mustard in my house.  Dijon is the mustard of choice for the majority of the family.  And while I have a soft spot for homemade, hot Chinese mustard, I rarely indulge (too lazy to make it).  Brown mustard gets an occasional at bat around here on a whim, but Dijon is our comfort zone, our fall back, our home base if you will.  This next gallery is a little like home base for me.  Please don’t miss this opportunity…

Check out this Call for Entries from The Arts & Culture Alliance for the Nat’l Juried Exhibition of 2016. This is a great arts organization. I have shown work here.  I have juried a show here.  I teach here.  I would love to see your contribution at this opening. Take a look…

SQUASH

While most of the world is obsessed with pumpkin-flavor, not actual pumpkin, I am reveling in the other winter squashes — butternut, acorn & patty pan.  My farmers market sells these squash, in season, for $1 each.  Split & roast one of each squash, scoop out the insides and puree through the food processor, add a little salt, pepper, garlic and a touch of curry or a few red pepper flakes, and the resulting squash soup is divine.  It looks like baby food, but the flavor is unbelievable.  I makes lunch for all three of us for at least two or three days.  Squash, just squash.  It’s a solo act, just like this next Call.  Take a look…

EATS

My grocery bill is absurd.  I’m not having dinners of foie gras & truffles.  In fact, most of our meals are vegetable laden.  I try to stop by the farmers market at my local apple orchard.  This week, it was $25 for apples, onions, 4 sweet potatoes, 3 bell peppers & 2 eggplant.  As you might imagine, I then proceeded to spend a fortune at the grocery store to supplement my farmers market finds.  I have a family of only three people + my four-legged child.  I buy in-season, cost-conscious items.  I consider myself a master food shopper, and I can barely hang on to a healthy menu.  How are people without access to locally-grown produce options supposed to avoid eating processed food?  The economics of hunger are devastating.  This next Call is an excellent use of YOUR $25.  Take a look…

Herbs and spices always tell a meal’s story.  And those stories are shaped by our experiences. Even though basil is found in Thai cuisine, it immediately transports me to Italy.  And while cumin finds its origins in Iran & the Mediterranean, it conjures memories of Mexico for me. This next Call is looking for your story in images.  This is a great challenge…

CHERRIES

Did you know there is an edible form of the dogwood? Cornus Mas, aka Cornelius Cherry Dogwood, produces small ruby red or yellow fruit that makes great jam.  The fruit is a common Iranian snack when salted, and I’ve even heard rumors that a few home brewers have been make wine from the fruit.  I’m thinking that finding the jam might be the easiest start.  In the meantime, let’s celebrate the non-edible dogwood by making art for this next Call.  Take a look…
