Dick
"Penne with a rich, spicy pink sauce. Save it for special occasions. Your family or friends will think you slaved for hours to create it. Increase or decrease the red pepper flakes to your taste."

I have had other vodka sauces that I liked better than this recipe. I thought that there was too much vodka in it and it "burned" the sauce.
