CALL for ENTRIES: Pets We Love

Posted on June 3, 2015June 3, 2015 by R.L. Gibson

CHEESE
dog

As I get older, my tastes skew toward whole foods with a higher fat content–nuts, cheese, olives. Yum. My dog is newly enamored with cheddar cheese and almonds too. She recognizes the crackle of the almond bag from the other side of the house, ha. We try to maintain enough self-restraint to limit her people food to minimum, but it is hard to say “no” to that sweet face. This next Call wants your work depicting your pet family. AND, it helps pets find families…

CALL for ENTRIES: Sense of Place 2015

Posted on May 20, 2015May 20, 2015 by R.L. Gibson

TOMATOES & GRAPES
gardens in bloom

I pursued the holy grail of dining in the Holy City recently. My meal began on the porch of a grand Southern home in historic Charleston, SC overlooking a garden of heirloom blooms cultivated on the property. My meal began with a hand-propagated, rare tomato varietal and a gorgeous regional wine fermented from heirloom grapes. Even blind folded, I couldn’t have expected to be anywhere other than one of the sparkling jewel cities of the culinary culture to be experienced only in the South. The sense of place amplifies the food experience just as the sense of place in this one-of-a-kind Southern gallery exalts every work found within. Claim your spot now…

HOT stuff

I am the poster child for a handful of food trends. In fact, I often hang on to them long after they go out of fashion. I am still annoyingly addicted to sriracha.

BULBOUS

More and more people are farming. There may be fewer commercial farms, but I find that more and more people are taking the time to grow something. Not everything; just something. This image (left) is from the Facebook feed of a friend of mine in the suburbs of Charleston, WV who is sprouting garlic for container gardening on his back patio. He planted tomato seedlings in between the sprouted cloves. It isn’t a huge endeavor, but he’ll have the best salsa of anyone in his neighborhood this summer. LOVE. This next Call celebrates roots in exactly the same manner. Cultivate this one…

Those catalytic moments in time that give rise to new ethos. We also invite artists working with organic and/or sustainable materials to apply. Our aim is to feature projects born out of a response to horticulture, urban farming, and agriculture; or narratives that invoke our natural world. ” –from onthegroundfloor.co

don’t be
BLUE

There aren’t really any naturally-occurring blue foods–of which I am aware. But maybe that is why I’m not a fan of color blue, with the exceptions of navy (almost purple) & turquoise (high green only). Blue foods scream, “Plastic” every time I see them–from icing on cakes to the blue tongues of toddlers eating shaved ice. I know; my food quirks never end. This next Call is just the perfect shade away from blue. Take a look…

melon or
MELON?

Things are not always as they appear. Take the Yubari melon, while it looks like a $4 canteloupe, it has a unique flavor you won’t ever forget.

Looks are deceiving, so investigate…

HERO

What would we do without the iconic dishes that make up the safety net? You know the ones…everyone likes some version of it. They tend to be my “go to” meals on nights when I have to plan in advance. Since I don’t know what anyone will be in the mood for, I hit the highlights. Tonight is spaghetti night. No matter who is coming, I can cover vegetarian, vegan & gluten-free if need be.
