the
SPAGHETTI
incident
I spent my childhood as the family cook & server. I was raised by a single father that couldn’t cook. I think he realized early on that ANY talent I had in the kitchen would surpass his own. Even before I could cook with aid of a step stool, I was already setting the table and serving dinner. I remember serving a plate of spaghetti and tomato sauce to my father, already seated, who quickly discovered you shouldn’t trust a 4 year old to secure a drop leaf table. Ha. he called it the “spaghetti incident” until the day he died. This next Call wants to see how your imagination frames your early memories –food optional. Handle this theme thoughtfully…
Check out this Call for Entries from L.A. Photo Curator for the Memories exhibit. $20 entry, no shipping & a portion of the entry fees goes to a great charity. Take a look…
