Barbarians aren't stupid.

Try to buy fresh  quality ingredients. Don't get me wrong, I've used cheap dried spices before and I will again. But if you can (and especially if you're cooking to impress a woman) get the good stuff, locally grown if possible.

Go ahead and get some dried stuff too. If you have dried onion and garlic you're halfway home on almost any recipe. I like to get some dried peppers and other vegetables too. I use them for camping meals and as emergency backup at home when I run out of something.
