"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

Oh, the memories of this delicious cake! My sweet Grandma Walker always made this recipe. Sometimes she would even make it in a bundt so she could slice it up and individually wrap pieces for my lunchbox. So sweet!
