About the Author
Paula Lauer is a professional copywriter, health and fitness columnist, journalist and eater. The Pseudo Gourmet is her gift to cooks everywhere who, like her, "Enjoy misleading family and friends into thinking I can cook as well as my mom. So far she's the only one I haven't been able to fool...mostly because I call her with questions like, 'So, if I don't have any real eggs, can I just use chocolate ones?' It's like my veil of deception isn't even there with her."
