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
Pea salad is something my mother makes almost every thanksgiving and Christmas to go along with the meal and subsequent "turkey sandwich days" that follow. It is very simple, but tasty. It is important that you let the salad stand in the refrigerator for at least an hour or so, otherwise, it will not taste right as the onions are the only thing that flavors the dressing. We always make it with Miracle Whip, but if you are one of those folks who despises the taste, you can substitute mayonnaise with 1-2 Tbsp. of sugar added.

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.
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!
