makeOVERs

Partial boxes and bags and cans of food drive me crazy.  I am too “thrifty” to get rid that extra half cup of evaporated milk or quarter box of pasta.  As a result my menu has become a litany of recipes that recycle the odds and ends that happen as a result of making the foods I actually intended to make.   This next Call wants your art make from all things recycled.  This is a great show.  Don’t miss the early bird deadline just days away!

Check out this Call for Entries from BWAC (Brooklyn, NY) for Recycle 2018.  Take advantage of a discount for early entry, a distinguished juror & significant cash awards. Take a look…
