cook's notes
When I was a young wife I was watching Julia Child and she was making green beans with butter and sesame seeds. I remember thinking this was so fancy! What do you want, I was 19. I've dressed it up a bit since then and it is still a go to quick veggie that goes with any kind of meat or fish.

Pizza night is always a favorite, especially when you have great tasting pizza from some of the most popular restaurants.
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.
