SEASIDE treasure

My grandmother was born & reared in Virginia, and even after she moved away in her twenties, she made sure we vacationed regularly near the Chesapeake Bay to dine on the blue crab & oysters —Virginia treasures.

CALL for ENTRIES: A Sense of Place 2017

Posted on June 11, 2017June 11, 2017 by R.L. Gibson

I am currently referring to my home as “box city” for reasons that I imagine are obvious. Part of the move included purging my life of all the “stuff” weighing me down, including kitchen gadgets and single-use appliances. The lack of stuff has necessarily affected my cooking as well, encouraging simplicity, whole foods & clean eating. It is a new place, a new space & an opportunity for a fresh perspective. This next Call, although un-themed, reinforces the idea of a unique sense of place. Take a look…

FEED ME at midnight

I cannot kick the late-night food fix. The question, “want a bowl of cereal?” is uttered every evening in my household by someone.
