I have been craving the butter crunch of nuts lately.  Between having friends with nut trees and a mother that can’t stay out of the wholesale grocer, I always have an abundance of pecans & walnuts in the pantry.  Now they are sneaking their way into every dish from breakfast oatmeal to salads at lunch and every imaginable cuisine at dinner.  I’m wondering how long my family will appreciate the texture  and not notice the source, ha.  This next Call is all about texure.  Take a look…

Except for a few specialty pieces, I’ve always owned white dishes.  I love color, but food has always been the creative expression for me –even when my husband spent two years as a commercial potter.  In recent years, we’ve begun slumping glass part time in a kiln shed built onto our back deck.  I am intrigued by the patterns and textures and colors as they meld together.  It make me want to make a different sheet of glass for every window in my house.  This next Call is a salute to that very visual framework.  Take a look…

CALL for ENTRIES: What Remains

Posted on by R.L. Gibson

Learn more about the What Remains exhibit from LA Photo Curator!mystery LUNCH

My favorite culinary masterpieces are created from the random remains of my refrigerator or pantry.  This is how lunch comes to be almost every day.  Left over veggies from salad or stir fry end up as spring rolls; emergency canned goods create the best vegetable soup.  Because I live in a more rural location, bad weather & poor grocery planning can result in a hungry household.  But a little creativity amongst the ruinous remains, turns out the most delightful surprises.  This next Call wants to see what you creat from what remains.  Take a look…

Posted on by R.L. Gibson

CUISINE closeup

I have kept my word.   I am taking fewer pictures of my food in public.   You would be proud.  I am amazed at how often I’ve finished a dish before it occurred to me “I should have photographed that”.  Maybe I’ve just been too hungry by the time food arrives.  And, while my Insta feed is decidedly less interesting, my food IS warmer.  This next Call wants to know how social media has influenced YOUR work.  Take a look…

The Thanksgiving sea of brown food has passed.  Luckily, my family forgoes the turkey, dressing, gravy & rolls thereby missing out on a good portion of the brownness of it all. I crave color even in my food.  A star of this year’s menu was the beet & clementine salad.  Beets are plentiful year around due to how well they do in cold storage.  If you are one of those folks that swear they dislike beets, make a point to try them fresh roasted.  (Message me for a recipe.)  In the meantime, here’s a call that also craves color.  Take a look…

I’m still eating local greens even though it is almost November.  Pressure-cooked mustard & collard greens served with a dash of vinegary hot sauce is a rite of passage in the South.  You aren’t really an adult if you don’t love cooked greens, but I’ve never had a taste for anything except creamed spinach, making me feel like the hometown heel.  But, I am newly-enamored of raw greens.  Everyone yearns for Spring lettuce, but my Fall salads of peppery mustard greens highlight my recent menus–still available locally, and they last forever.  What reminds you of your hometown? This Call wants to see your hometown images.  Take a look…

sweet TATERS

I am mourning the upcoming loss of eggplant which goes out of season locally very soon.  But with the end of one season, come the beginning of another.  My beloved sweet potatoes are at their sweetest, and the upcoming frost in late October or early November will make them perfection.  I cannot wait.  Try it.  Buy a sweet potato now, then wait until December or January and try them again.  The difference is astonishing.  This next Call is like the sweet potato, anxiously anticipated and finishes sweet.  Take a look…
