CALL for ENTRIES: Flowers, Plants & Gardens

Posted on April 19, 2017April 19, 2017 by R.L. Gibson

aztec TEA

We move to our “clean slate” apartment in about 6 weeks. It has a good-size front porch but almost no yard. The only green in site is a decayed and crumbling stepped flower bed next to the driveway. I don’t think I can really grow a lot of food, but I have a friend that says she can get me a cut of epazote, a Mexican herb that’s hard to find in these parts. Maybe if I surround it with marigolds and citronella, I might be able to save it from the bugs & their furrier 4-legged neighbors. This next Call wants to know about your flowers, plants & gardens. This is a perennial favorite, ha…

CALL for ENTRIES: Paperworks

Posted on April 17, 2017April 18, 2017 by R.L. Gibson

COOKING in paper

I dislike washing dishes, just like everyone else. I have had a dishwasher for the past 10 years, but I still try to be conservative in usage. But as of June 1, we are downsizing to an apartment that does not have a dishwasher. And, while I will still avoid disposables, like paper plates, I am a strong advocate of cooking “en papillote”. Not only is it a great way to produce tender, flavor-infused dishes, it also produces one less dirty dish. This next Call also extols the praises of working with paper. Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: Tiny Monsters

Posted on April 16, 2017April 17, 2017 by R.L. Gibson

gooseBERRIES

Pineapples are showing up in mass at every grocer right now. I can’t eat enough to take advantage of the availability, so I was contemplating making jelly or jam. As you may know, pineapple fights the jelling process, so you have to use nearly twice as much pectin to make it work –which defeats the purpose of buying on sale. Maybe I can freeze the cleaned pineapple and wait for gooseberries come into season. These little treasures have huge amounts of pectin and can be made into jelly without ANY additional pectin. This next Call wants your little treasures, but they must be monstrous…

les ÉPINARDS

I am what I am, and this week, I am a spinach lover. To be honest, I am a spinach lover every week, but this week I have had spinach quiche & spinach salad without a wilted leaf to be seen. Because of the popularity of aquaponics and the number of artisan growers in my area, every day is spinach season for me (happy dance), but this next Call just has a few more days left.

MORE please

I have a complicated relationship with food. I eat what I want, when I want. I have a complicated relationship with moderation too. Food is at the very least a political one, and clearly a feminist one. Diet culture is pervasive. Patriarchy is rampant in the food industry. Then there’s fat shaming, BMI calculations and food deserts. This next Call wants your feminist perspective — food references not necessary. Take a look…

fiesta ANACARDO

I made a little party mix as finger food for my teenager yesterday. It is his favorite snack, and I’m a sucker for the “please” of it all. The reviews are in and while I got I got bonus points for substituting cayenne for garlic, apparently not including cashews is unforgivable. Who knew something so small would make such a difference? This next Call is counting on all things small. Investigate for yourself…

CALL for ENTRIES: 63rd Annual National

AGUA limpia

I am not an avid fan of drinking water, but my health requires it. Since the wildfires, I find that our water tastes different due to additives to protect us from bacteria that may have grown during the week water was not circulating. It isn’t just a beverage. It washes every dish. It is the foundation for coffee, tea, chicken stock and even poached eggs, mashed potatoes and steamed spinach. Never take clean water for granted. This next call requires the use of water media for all submissions. Take a look…

et tu, Brute?

Anchovy paste is a standard item in my pantry, but it’s because I have a Caesar salad addiction. Otherwise, I don’t know a single person that eats anchovies outside of my family. Then, I was sitting in a pizza joint in Hendersonville, NC when I heard someone say, “I’m here for the anchovy, black olive pie.” See, I am not alone –never alone. There are benefits to being alone at times though. This next Call is the perfect opportunity to go solo. Don’t miss this chance…

But watermelon is 90% water and somehow still tastes like a beautiful chunk of sunshine. This next Call is also a little slice of summer. Be sure to investigate the opportunity…
