Confluence of public health and food labeling took a step forward when nutrition facts were added to processed foods.  I promise I won’t go into my issues with processed food or the FDA this time.  The fact that nutrition facts exist on packaging leads me to believe that the interest of both the food industry and consumers can merge into content labeling regarding the origin of food as well.  Fingers crossed.  This next call is a Confluence of art and fine craft with an excellent retail opportunity.  Investigate…

FERNS

How many perennial vegetables do you know?  There are a few like asparagus & horseradish that aren’t strangers, but there is a whole world of beauties like Jerusalem artichokes, Egyptian onions, Good King Henry & yummy ostrich ferns (aka fiddleheads).  Doesn’t the idea of planting a vegetable once and harvesting for up to 20 years sound like a dream? Granted there are the complications of disease control, smaller harvests & garden takeover, but sometimes one planting can be fruitful for years.  This next Call only happens once per year, but it could pay off for years to come.  Investigate the options…

My friend accidentally discovered a peach tree in her yard.  I was puzzled too.

of my hip

I have a tattoo.  It is apple-shaped.  I know–food, again.  It was really meant to be about food, technically.  I went to New York City, aka the Big Apple, for my graduate school interview, and decided to get a little, nickel-sized apple tattoo to remind me of my trip to the Big Apple.  Yes, I was sober.  Turns out that I’m a bleeder, so it is my only tattoo.  But, I really love them.  This next Call wants your take on tattoos.  Take a look…

BLUE

I survived another holiday without eating blue food.  Why do people eat the blue food? Blue iced cookies & cakes are everywhere this time of year, so I am going to say this again… step away from the blue food.  The closest thing to naturally occurring blue food is squid ink.  Eat all the squid ink your heart desires, but please stop buying blue Jell-o, Koolaid, popsicles & icing.  You’re only encouraging them.  If you need to experience ALL the colors of the rainbow (including blue), try this next Call instead.  Take a look…

GROW

I have been searching for my place–in art, in music, in food, in the world.  I have a long history of wanting to do everything at all times.  I want to get it all right, experience it all, eat it all, see it all, do it all.  As a result, I often get none of them quite right.  Silly to some, I believe the answer is geographical.  I continue to seek smaller spaces and places–one town smaller than the next.  Now I seek space, acres inside the next smallest town.  Not isolation so much as controlled interaction.  Space to think.  Space to choose.  Space to grow.  Where is YOUR space?  Your place?  The next Call wants your answers–or questions.  What do you have to say?

Finding Our Place

“If you don’t know where you are, you don’t know who you are.”
–Wendell Berry

A sense of place can be an essential element in artists’ creative life, and frequently informs their subject matter, materials, style, approach, studio location, and more.  Whether it be ones childhood “primal landscape,” full of memories of home and family, or the pull of a dramatic landscape, or a connection to a particular place based on historical and cultural events, geography calls to the imagination.  As the world shifts to a focus on the virtual, how has this impacted artists’ work?  Has it resulted in a weakening of a sense of place, or has the meaning of place simply adjusted to this new reality?  This exhibit invites artists to explore this issue from either or both sides, and to celebrate what place means to them.  What informs your work?  A physical location or a virtual world?  Do you know “where you are?” — from annmariegarden.org

In our continuing efforts to downsize in preparation for “tiny living”, I downsized myself out of garden space.  We moved back to our previous 2-acre, mountain-top abode, but anything other than container gardening is impossible with out a major terracing project to provide flat space on the side of the mountain.  So, we’re going to attempt to grow a few squash & cucumbers on the deck using the railings as support.  But, considering the fact that my dog has tree’d several black bears during the past two-weeks.  Am I simply creating a buffet dinner on my porch?  Nature. Hmm.  This next Call wants to know your perspective.  Take a look…
