Fresh paprika is fabulous—stale paprika is little more than food coloring. If yours is more than six or eight months old, replace it and store the new bottle in the freezer.

A Continuing Story of Great Food and Tempestuous Love
Episode 36: Oh, Promise Me!
Sam is right. There is on this wedding day unprecedented music in the spheres.
Blessed by chance and fine ingredients, swept up in the power of love and good cooking, bound together by the certain glory of a life to come, Harry and Sam pledge each to the other the tag ends of their earthly days.
Harry's mother sighs; Sam's sisters cheer; their friends weep for joy, struck by the light of love shining in their eyes.
'Oh, promise me,' their butcher's niece, a voice major from Julliard, sings.
And they do.
The End.
