"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

These cookies, or sorghum, or pineapple, or oatmeal raisin cookies, were always in the cookie tin when we visited Grandpa and Grandma (Walter and Arlie). If for some reason, there were no cookies, there would be tootsie rolls in the cabinet.
