The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

This was great--I thought I had brand name SF frosting in the pantry, but didn't. I had to scramble, based upon what ingredients I had, and this fit the bill. I had to wing it a bit--used 1/3 C Splenda and that was sweet enough.

I finally found a recipe that does not require powdered sugar! I didn't feel like going to the store.

I made this to put on carrot cake. I used real butter instead of margarine and Splenda instead of Equal because that's what I had on hand. After frosting the cake and refrigerating over night it tasted like I had covered my carrot cake in cheesecake! It was delicious! Thanks for the recipe.
