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.

1 pizza crust, premade, homemade, etc
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary leaves

2 1/2 ounces soft ripe goat cheese, crumbled
10 kalamata olives, pitted and halved
Prepare Pizza Crust. Preheat oven to 500 degrees F. Brush crust surface with olive oil. Sprinkle with rosemary and garlic and brush again to coat with oil. Bake about 4 minutes or until crust begins to turn golden.

Awesome! I made these using the small, individual pizza crusts instead of a larger crust (the recipe didn't really specify). This makes a delicious meal, snack, or appetizer for a party. Chop up the artichoke hearts a bit. Even quartered ones are a little large to bit into.
