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.

cook's notes
Frozen zucchini also works. If using, thaw and drain very well. The baked bread also freezes very well.

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!
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 bread was very moist and delicious. I added 2 teaspoons of cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg. Great flavor.
