me

If I had to choose one food to represent me as a person, I would possibly die of indecision.  But, since my food ramblings are only the fluff of why readers come to this site, and you don’t have enough time to wait…let’s will say just for argument’s sake that goat cheese would represent me perfectly.  Soft but with an edge, getting a little more tart with age, not for everyone, but goes well with almost anything.  Goat cheese is me.  If goat cheese isn’t you, don’t worry.  This next Call offers you a chance for a year-long representation.  Investigate…

POPCORN
and peanuts

I eat popcorn almost everyday.  My most recent obsession is dousing it with loads of chili powder, but for a long time, it was Parmesan cheese.  Popcorn is a memory trigger food for me; my Dad ate it every night with garlic salt with a side of Coke with peanuts (or Tab).  It’s a Southern thing.  What are your memory triggers?  This next Call wants to know…

of love

Some of the most precious kitchen gadgets I have are handmade–from olive wood cooking spoons to hand turned wooden salad bowls.  I love high tech gadgets, but the idea that every spoon in one of a kind gives a sort of reverence to cooking.  Yes, I might own 6 spoons, all copies of each other, but each one is unique.  I even have a favorite.  The crafting of my wooden spoons is not unlike the printmaking featured in this next Call.  Investigate…

I was out of town this week, and traveling makes eating out necessary.  But, I was trying to behave so I’ll fit back into my Spring clothes again soon.  At one restaurant, I ordered a California Chicken Salad which included mixed greens, mandarin oranges, dried cranberries, blue cheese, candied pecans, croutons, grilled chicken and balsamic vinaigrette.  Mine was sans the blue cheese & pecans, but I am still wondering what made it Californian.  The oranges?  I still don’t know.  Check out this next Call with a name that references place, but it isn’t really the theme.  Interesting…

mussels

So, I’ve been out of town without my husband.  That’s mean’s I have consumed huge amounts of shellfish.  He’s allergic, and when he’s not around, I tend to over indulge.  I don’t know how anyone lives with wine-steamed mussels with garlic butter.  How does so much flavor exist in such a tiny package?  Is it wrong that I hope to travel again soon just to have mussels?  Maybe so.  This next Call is all about packing a  big wallop in a small package.  Take a look…

with my satay, please

Food has interrelation–be it natural or forced.  In the US, peanut butter is only naturally related to grape jelly, but it is fantastic with raspberry jam.  PB&J has a distinct meaning apart from its separate components.  My immediate connection with peanut butter is peanut sauce, but my connection to PB&J is childhood comfort.  Odd, eh?  This next show is about the interrelation of work, one deriving meaning from the other.  I like this theme…

Check out this Call for Entries from the Northbrook Public Library (Northbrook, IL) for their annual juried show, called Social Media Artshow this year. The entry fee is reasonable.

Social Media Artshow 2013

 

Art is the original social media: it reaches out and draws together, trying to make connections. It incites discussion and draws meaning through relationships. We are looking for works that are either created in a series or multiple elements (like diptychs) that generate meaning through their interrelation, or works that react to existing famous artworks. The mathematics are simple: one is quotidian and two is exponential.

ELIGIBILITY: The show is open to artists 18 years and older.

MEDIA: 2 and 3 dimensional art executed within 3 years of entry date and not previously been displayed in the library.

DEADLINE: May 31, 2013

NOTIFICATION: July 31, 2013

SALES & COMMISSION: The NPL does NOT charge a commission for show participation. All sales inquires will be referred to the artists. Contact information, provided by the artist, will be listed in the online and printed show catalog to facilitate sales.

I would, on occasion, gladly work for food, but did you know that the Egyptians that built the pyramids were often paid with beer, bread and onions.  I don’t think so; not this girl.  As I have previously mention, I’m not a beer kinda girl, and as much as I love bread, a girl cannot live by bread and onions alone.  This next Call’s fee cannot be paid in bread and onions, but it is Pyramid inspired.  Investigate…

One of my most prized possessions is a stolen recipe for Caesar Dressing.  A restaurant in Savannah, GA served Caesar salad that was created table side.  My mother and I drove 100 miles just to have lunch.  After telling many servers over the years of our 100-mile trek, I convinced one to give me the illicit recipe–strictly against their non-disclosure statement.  It is fantastic.  I keep the recipe, hand-written by the server, in a special place, home only to my inherited family recipes.  I could re-type it, but that would be a dishonor to the server that so kindly risked his job for my obsessive palate.  This next Call is all about the handwriting.  Take a look…

I’m not a huge fan of buffet restaurants.  I understand why people hosting large parties prefer buffets, but I choose NOT to go to buffet restaurants because I prefer not to be surrounded by people. And, not all food should be held at the same temp.  I don’t like being part of the herd.  Luckily, this next Call is about art and not food because it is a bit like a buffet style show.  As I mentioned, sometimes it just works.  Investigate…
