"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

(I was blessed with two Scandinavian grandmothers: Augusta (Strand) Bakken and Anna (Deline) Edson. They had many buttery cookie recipes. The Strand Bakery was among the first bakeries in Minneapolis, MN. Sorry grandmothers, if you are looking down, I didn't enter a Lutefisk recipe.)
