About me

Gender Female
Introduction I like to use the best ingredients and prepare them well. Simple as that. I look for local produce as much as possible. I like simple straightforward presentations. Food should look like what it is. It should not be handled to death . I’m not one to take short cuts or substitute less expensive ingredients if the quality of the final product is jeopardized. I like real food, not “plastic,” no fat free cheese, no Cool Whip, no “redi-made” anything with a lengthy list of ingredients, i.e., corn syrups, preservatives, chemicals.. None of those tasteless black California olives or bottled dressings or jarred salsa. Again, I believe in taking real food and preparing it to its best advantage. The person who said, “Avoid products that your grandmother wouldn’t recognize as food” makes a good point. I love editing my blog www.sweetpaprika.wordpress.com I’m enjoying presenting and photographing dishes that I think are really really good. I test every recipe. Most of them I have prepared again and again for my family and friends. I love to take a recipe and figure out how to make it better.
Interests cooking, writing, eating, travel, reading theater, acting, stand-up, improv
