STARCHY staples

Did you know that nearly 85% of the rice eaten by Americans is grown in the United States?  Despite living in the south for the majority of my years, I was unaware until recently.  Louisiana is famous for Creole food including red beans & rice, but I had no idea that Louisiana is also one of the top three producers of rice in the U.S.  The next time you’re watching the pot that never boils, read the back of the rice bag.  This next Call is another one of my favorite things to hail from Louisiana.  Take a look…

to rise?

Breakfast is beloved in my house.  Everywhere I have ever lived, including some time in the Virgin Islands, breakfast has been the biggest meal of the day because it was always the cheapest.  Even tiny islands in the Caribbean can raise chickens instead of importing eggs.  So, a cheeseburger might be $18, but breakfast was always under $5.  Those days have passed, and breakfast can be a pricey endeavor.  It is apparently even more expensive if you get up a little later and call it brunch.  Start your morning with this next Call because it is definitely cheaper than brunch. 🙂  Take a look…

These commissioned projects aim to forge meaningful interactions between artists and diverse groups of people while acknowledging a turn toward research-based and ephemeral site-specific approaches in contemporary art.  In 2014 Firmin co-chaired (with Julian Cox) the Association of Art Museum Curators’ annual conference in Detroit, and moderated the panel Urban Ecologies and Cultural Exchange.

of Winter

Chili mac is in the crock pot right now.  Mmmhmm, sophisticated.  I spend a lot of time talking about gourmet foods, but it is cold and drizzly outside.  And since I cannot spend a couple of balmy days in Louisiana soaking up the warm, humid goodness… I made chili mac instead of grilled portobellos with homemade pesto over flax seed, whole wheat pasta.  Don’t judge me–or my chili mac.  This next Call is enticing me, if only because I am dreaming of attending a Louisiana opening.  Take a look…

…and FOWL

If you can say nothing else for my taste in food, it is fair and open to all.  I will try almost any culinary invention once.  And most of them (even the bad ones) I will give a second and/or third chance.  But if you haven’t won me over after three attempts, I’m likely done.  I give art, artists and their little-known media the same respect.  This next call offers consideration for “any” media.  I wonder if they REALLY mean that.  Let me know…

Check out this Call for Entries for the 49th Annual Juried Exhibition from the Masur Museum of Art (Monroe, LA).  The entry fee is low, and the show is open to all media.  Did I mention that there is no commission on sales?   I love the Masur, and I will bet that you will love it too!
