horny as a
CUCUMBER
I’m on the lookout for a horned melon aka an African cucumber. I tried one many years ago and remember the flavors of lemon, banana and cucumber, but because they are exceedingly rare, I can’t find one locally. I suspect if I find one in the South, it will probably be imported and unripe. Those tend to just taste like banana. Keep your fingers crossed, or send me one if you run across it. In the meantime, the next Call is a very rare illustration call. Take a look…
Check out this Call for Entries from 3×3 Magazine for their Annual ProShow. You can’t go wrong with Art Publication, and competitions for illustrators are a rare find. Take a chance…
