MEASURE ME
I don’t like to measure when I cook. Yep, I’m one of those folks that cooks with pinches and dashes. Never trust a recipe from me. The “ish” in all of my measurements should be implied. But for someone that doesn’t like to measure, I own 3 glass measuring cups, a set of stainless steel measuring cups and a great set of vintage measuring spoons. An enigma rolled in conundrum, eh?…sounds like sushi.
Check out this great call that will require that you measure. The Todd Gallery at MTSU has put out a Call for Entries for work in all media…so long as your it is no larger than 12″x12″x12″.
* Editors Note: I once created a whole series of 12″x12″ pieces. The advantage? They fit in Priority Mail boxes…just thought you might like the bonus informaton. Take a look!
