"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

Personal Notes:
Mom made delicious biscuits. Me not so much. I have learned to forgo the kneading and cutting and just drop spoonful of the batter into the heated pan seems to work best.
Thankfully, Nana Norene did a great job teaching Wes and Eric how to make biscuits.
