Miscellany for insatiably curious foodies.
About the author
- Pig me up
- London, United Kingdom
- A food-obsessed Californian living in London. I love fresh fruit and veg (preferably what's in season) meals cooked from scratch, food news and good company at a dinner party. Processed foods and hydrogenated oils make me nervous. **Please note that the contents of this site are copyright of Marina Vidor.
