OODLES of NOODLES

Ramen noodles are a marvel. I am amongst the millions that have been on a sleeping-on-someone’s-couch budget at one point in my life. That budget allows for ramen noodles, oatmeal and a splurge on peanut butter for protein. If you can find a couch in NYC, this next Call might be a great reason to eat ramen again. Just a thought…

Check out this Call for Applications from the SOHO20 Gallery Chelsea (New York City, NY) for an Artist Residency. If you have a friend who’ll let you sleep on the couch for a few weeks (okay, 3 months), this is a GREAT opportunity to jump into the NYC art scene. Take a look…

PEPPER with my TEA

How is it that watercress became girly food? I don’t know either. Maybe it is all those images of little girls having tea paries with white gloves and pearls. The truth is watercress is tangy and peppery and worth of topping any burger you can imagine. Step across this estrogen / testosterone myth with this Call from a typically all female space. Take a chance…
