"As viscous as motor oil swirled in a swamp, redolent of burnt bell peppers nested in by incontinent mice and a finish reminiscent of the dregs of a stale can of Coca-Cola that someone has been using as an ashtray. Not a bad drink, though."--Excerpt from "The Moose Turd Wine Tasting" by T. A. Nonymous

(Be sure to wash your hands after seeding the jalapeños. And I find the recipe is perfect with half the butter. Of course I buy the fettuccine.)
