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
4 whole Bosc pears, peeled
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 cup vanilla ice cream
directions
Peel pears and core from the bottom using a melon baller leaving the stem intact.
In a microwave safe dish place the brown sugar and the butter, and add pears. Cover and microwave on high until the pears are tender enough to pierce with a knife, 10 to 12 minutes.
Transfer cooked pears to shallow individual serving bowls, leaving juices behind. Add the ice cream to the juices in the dish; stir until smooth and saucy.
Dividing evenly, spoon sauce around the pears; serve at room temperature or chilled.
