MUG ME,
Joe
I’ve never been a coffee drinker. Well, I used to submit to occasional peer pressure in social situations. Wait, that didn’t sound like I was talking about coffee did it? I probably have not had coffee, or any of its infinite variations, in over 10 years. Nope, I am really not kidding. I used to have my morning caffeine via a diet soft drink, but now I often drink the caffeine-free variety…if at all. I have friends that cannot comprehend how I function without coffee or caffeine. I dunno. This next Call celebrates the morning coffee ritual. Be careful, contents may be hot…
Check out this Call for Entries from Lillstreet Gallery (Chicago, IL) for Best Served Hot: Ceramics for the Coffee Ritual. The entry fee is reasonable. The jurors are great. And, I’ll bet the coffee at the reception will be fantastic, if you’re into that sort of thing. Chug a lug…
