If you have something to say, you should say it.  Anonymous food & restaurant reviews are cheap shots.  Have you noticed that only BAD reviews are posted by “anonymous”.  If someone has something good to say, they post their names in all CAPS.  I am hopeful that this next Call will redeem the notion of posting, or in this case exhibiting, anonymously.  How will your work stand up on its own?

Check out this Call for Entries from the Brody Art Yard for the Anonymous Project exhibited at Art Market Budapest 2015.  No entry fee.  This is a fascinating yearly experiment.  Read on to discover more…

MUNCHIES

I kicked cable TV to the curb.  Because we travel for work, no one really watches specific shows very often.  So, we have a Hulu account & Chromecast PLUS there’s a Redbox® just down the mountain.  The result?  Now we watch more movies and consume more popcorn.  Isn’t that the law?  A movie must be accompanied by popcorn, right?  This next Call could be an excellent way to put my new movie-watching obsession to good use.  Take a look…

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…

KITCHEN

Where I cook is about to drastically change.  More specifically, where I LIVE is about to change.  My new kitchen has been planned & re-planned –no dishwasher, a tiny fridge (supplemented by a root cellar), maybe wood or bamboo countertops, manual gadgets galore (of course) & open shelving plus an outdoor summer kitchen with wood-burning oven.  Sometimes simple is complicated.  But where I live, where I cook, is important enough to get it right.  The next Call wants to know more about where YOU live.  Take a look…

I’ve been studying food preservation, from pickling & water-bath canning to vacuum-sealing & salt-packing.  I’ve run across a huge amount of admirable testing, experimentation and success amongst food-enthusiasts, homemakers, homesteaders, preppers & gardners alike.  I am open to almost anything culinary at least once, but some folks are out there just purposely trying to make food, well, wrong.  Koolickles.  I am almost beyond words this time.  Koolickles are created by soaking dill pickles in a mixture of Kool-Aid® & pickle brine.  Being open doesn’t always work in my favor, but this next Call definitely does.  They are open to almost anything, and it doesn’t have to be Koolickles, I promise…

When I was in college, we chose wine based on the label–the LOOK of the label, ha.  The weirder the label, the better to try.  Never mind the rankings, descriptions or variety.  Nope, just label art.  See?

TAMALE

I love tamales.  My life has been dotted with expert tamale makers–the Mexican version.  Then I tried Guatemalan tamales.  Oh my.  The differences are subtle, but important.  In Guatemalan tamales, the corn used to make the masa (dough) is not sweet, and they are usually wrapped in  leaves, not corn husks.  Tamales can come in red & black varieties, both sweet & savory, both large & small.  If are the winner of this next Call, they pick up the tab for your ticket & hotel to the opening.  Be sure to pick up a tamale while you are in Guatemala!  Take a look…

My kiddo just turned 16.  For his birthday, he didn’t ask for pizza or burgers; he wanted Indian food.  So proud.  Since his palate took a huge left turn a couple of years ago, eating out with him has been a voyage of firsts.  The first taste of Baingan ka Bharta (a spicy mash of eggplant & tomatoes) & Goat Korma were adorable.  And hopeful.  Finally I can rest knowing that I might have put another foodie out into the world that is willing to eat adventurously.  This next Call could be a first opportunity for you at the first show for this gallery.  Investigate…

KITCHEN

It isn’t about how little you spend; it is about how little you throw away.  That is the key to keeping our household food budget on track.  We throw very little away.  When celery goes limp or carrots dry out, we add them to the collection of chicken bones in the freezer to make stock.  I haven’t purchased broth or stock in years.  A little cream  makes a whole new meal from left overs.  Overly ripe fruits make fantastic preserves, coulees, granitas & trail mix.  Stale bread makes great croutons.  Don’t let throwing things away become the habit, recycle or re-use or re-invent it–even food.  This next Call wants your insight on garbage re-use & reduction.  Love this one…
