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.
Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.
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.

This was a solid stew recipe (though I didn't bother thickening the broth at the end), but there was nothing especially outstanding about it. I used Tecate beer because that was what I had, but I imagine that it would be better with a darker beer.

Added 24oz of dark beer instead of 16 and had just enough juice for 6 hearty bowls!! Great Recipe!
0.222 cup flour what the hell kind of measurement is this???
That only appears if you modify the serving size from what was originally submitted, which of course aren't always nice neat measurements because you're messing with the formula.

Not for me I guess, but then again I'm not much for beer. Just thought I'd give it a try.
