I remember. And it was just half price too!

 GJ> Is there any connection between the Leopard Frog and the French

Nope.

 JW> a fruited vodka, a real chick sort of trendy club drink.

 GJ> I don't think I would follow her recommendations if buying wine for a
 GJ> special occasion.

She gets commission and recommends stuff by the price tag.

 JW> ... Npnotiq possible The Most Lamentable Booze Trend of the decade.

 GJ> I believe you.

If you saw the follow-up post, it's somewhat better than it sounds.

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06
 
      Title: Dove Dumplings
 Categories: Game, Dumplings, Quail, Pigeons
      Yield: 6 Servings
 
     12    Dove or quail breasts
    1/4 c  Vegetable oil
           Salt, pepper and onion to
           Taste
      2 c  Flour
      1 ts Salt
    1/2 c  Shortening
      2    Eggs, beaten
    1/2 c  Milk
      2    Cubes chicken bullion
 
  This is one us kids grew up on, I haven't found anyone including
  children that didn't like this quick meal.
  
  Rinse dove well; pat dry. Brown in skillet with oil; drain. Place
  the dove in a stockpot and barely cover with water. Add salt,
  pepper, and onion. Simmer, covered, until meat is tender
  
  Combine flour and salt in a mixing bowl. Add in shortening, mixing
  until crumbly. Stir in eggs and enough milk to form a soft dough.
  Roll the dough out on a floured surface to about 1/8in thickness.
  Cut into 2-inch squares.
  
  Remove dove from stockpot. Add chicken bullion to the stock and
  bring to a boil. Drop in dumplings one at a time. Cook for about
  20 minutes or until tender. Return dove to stockpot and simmer
  covered for about 5 minutes.
  
  You can use just about any kind of wild bird for this recipe, I
  like it best with dove or quail. This recipe was one of my
  favorites when I was a kid and I still enjoy it to this day.

... You can call it special, but it's not; it's just expensive.
