IN OUR OLD KITCHEN: Photography by Anthony Buccino

 

The In Our Old Kitchen, Photography by Anthony Buccino saga began in August just few weeks after the dust had settled from our bathroom remodel when we ordered new cabinets for our old kitchen renovation. 

By October, it was time to empty the old shelves and cabinets to make way for demolition and the unveiling of old timbers, old wires, clogged plumbing, found covered-up windows, and lots of dirt and dust.

Here in the bowels of our woodwork we discovered the obscure and we found shiny things and sharp things in drawers, cabinets and behind boxes we hadn't seen in thirty years. While our new cabinets are supposed to be larger and roomier, there's no sense in hanging on to these old and forgotten items that have lost their glisten.

The great purge swept away utensils and whatnots we hadn't seen it or used it since God knows when, it was time to donate them to the needy. Well, right after we have a bit of fun with our cameras, drop cloth, and lightbox. We have here one last long look at items that will never be seen again in person. It was a fun little project. Enjoy.

OLD SPICES: Photography by Anthony Buccino

  OLD SPICES

Photography By Anthony Buccino

---

The secret of each spice is knowing when to use it,
when to shoot it, and when to toss it

Old Spices Photography by Anthony Buccino is dedicated to cooks

Cooks. Short-order cooks, tall order cooks, bakers, sous chefs, gourmet chefs, dessert designers, chocolatiers, cannoli stuffers, bread bakers, broiler masters, pizza makers, oven openers, microwavers, popcorn poppers, and picture lovers.

That includes anyone who ever took up a frying pan, cookie sheet, throwaway foil pan, wok, pressure cooker, spatula, ladle, pot lid and any other implements in preparing a feast, a snack or a cup of coffee.

 Where would our taste buds be without the subtle touch of the perfect pinch of spice in the perfect amount on our favorite food? Here's to everyone whoever added a touch of this, a pinch of that, and a smidgen of this!

 Photos, like spices, can be an acquired taste.

GAS STATIONS: Photography by Anthony Buccino

  You won’t need to take a spaceship to Ashtabula to catch a glimpse of GAS STATIONS: Photography by Anthony Buccino. It's as simple as browsing through this oversize book of gas pumps, service stations, and a few odds and ends.

Why photos of gas stations? We’ll, why not? Until we started curating this collection, we had no idea we already had so many service station pictures from as far back as 1970s and through the past fifteen years.

With a street photographer's eye looking for the unfamiliar in the same old place, we think we've captured a cross section of what you've seen and what you missed in this 150+ photo collection.

So, when you're feeling a tad nostalgic for the good old gas stations and recalling the days when fuel was under four dollars a gallon, you could pull in with an empty tank, say Fill 'er up, and check the oil, GAS STATIONS will fit your mood when you're under the hood.

GAS STATIONS is part of Buccino's 2022 Dozen series, a goal to publish one photo collection each month for a year, this year. Many of New Jersey photographer Anthony Buccino's photos have earned awards in area competitions.

Gas Stations Photography by Anthony Buccino is dedicated to pump jockeys, auto mechanics, tire changers, managers, foremen, test drivers, tool salesmen, tool makers, body shops, car painters, and highway flotsam and jetsam such as nails, screws and other implements of puncture. 

And gas station owners, entrepreneurs, auto parts suppliers, neon sign makers, fuel haulers, tank truck drivers with CDL endorsements, pipeline maintainers, oil drillers, rich oil company CEOs, DMV inspectors, division of weights and measures, EPA, motorcycle cops, speed traps, black/white units, dead dinosaurs, and ancient space aliens. And, as always, to my wife Dawn who always encourages me to have fun with my photography.

About Anthony Buccino, revised & updated

Writer/editor/web designer Anthony Buccino has written three books of essays based in and around Nutley and Belleville, N.J.

In 2008, he published two chapbooks of poetry: One Morning In Jersey City and Voices on the Bus. Additionally, his backlist of essay collections were digitized and are now available for download or in paperback.

With the help of his daughter Andrea, two paperbacks were published based on the research about the men from Nutley and Belleville who died in service to their country. Some of that research is online at Nutley Sons and Belleville Sons honor roll

In May 2005, a new memorial to nine men who died in peacetime was dedicated in Nutley - based on the research in Nutley Sons.

In November 2005, more than 150 names were added to the Belleville memorial on Union Avenue, after having the blank slate for 50 years awaiting the list of names which was based on the research in Belleville Sons.

In mid-2006, six street names in a new residential development City Homes At Essex Park were renamed to honor veterans and four of the Belleville heroes who died while in service.

For his research on the honor roll projects, Buccino was named the recipient of the UNICO National 2005 Grand Order Filippo Mazzei William Paca Americanism Award.

In 2001, Buccino received the Mille Grazie Award for his work with IAOVC against negative stereotyping in the media.

He blogs about life in northern New Jersey as alter ego Uncle Tonoose and about transit in New Jersey at NJ.Com.

Buccino's most recent essay collection is Rambling Round - Inside and Outside at the Same Time.

Buccino published two other collections of essays and stories: A Father's Place, An Eclectic Collection, in 1991, and Sister Dressed Me Funny, in 1996.

A volume of poetry, Days You Knew Me, was published in 1976. Buccino has returned to the format with several large and small works in progress.

One series, One Morning In Jersey City, was written along the shores of the Hudson River in Jersey City.

The other collection, Yountakah Country, tells in verse some of the history of Nutley from Annie Oakley and the first settlers to people on the street today.

Buccino has been published in New Jersey Monthly, the Wall Street Journal, the Passaic Herald News, New Jersey Federated Sportsmen, Italian Tribune, Behind The Lines, and other publications.

He has been editor at New Jersey Motor Truck Association, a state trade association, Beauty & Barber Supply Institute, a national trade association, and of Modern Food Service Magazine, a regional magazine.

He is a member of the Society of Professional Journalists, New Jersey Chapter, the New Jersey Poetry Society, and MEWS.

Selected publishing history, 1974-1998.
