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.

ingredients
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
3 egg whites, at room temperature
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup crushed peppermint sticks
directions
Preheat oven to 200 degrees F. Coat 2 large baking sheets (without sides) with no-stick spray. Dust with flour, shaking off the excess.
In a small bowl, combine the sugar and cornstarch. Set aside.
Place the egg whites and salt in a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Beat in the vanilla. Beat in the sugar mixture, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the whites are stiff but not dry. Fold in the peppermint.
Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets. Place in the oven on separate shelves. Bake for 2 1/2 hours or until the meringues are dry.
Turn the oven off, and leave the meringues in the oven for several hours or overnight. Store in an airtight container.

What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
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.
