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
1 1/2 cup flour (I use barley, but all-purpose or whole wheat pastry flour would be fine)
2 1/4 teaspoons cinnamon
1 1/2 teaspoon ginger
3/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/3 teaspoon cloves
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
6 tablespoons softened butter
2/3 cup molasses
2 eggs
1 1/2 cup pumpkin
1/4 cup milk or water
3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/3 cup raisins or chopped dates
directions
Whisk together the first 8 ingredients.
Beat the butter for a minute or so, then gradually beat in the molasses, and beat till lightened.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then add the pumpkin.
Combine the milk and vanilla.
Alternate adding the flour mixture and the milk mixture to the pumpkin mixture. (If you're using white or wheat flour, don't overbeat). Fold in the nuts and raisins.
Bake in a greased 9"x5" pan at 350 degrees F for about an hour, until a pick comes out clean.
Let cool a few minutes before unmolding.

Very good recipe, nice and moist, was finished perfectly in one hour.
Good recipe, we took the liberty to add 1 cup of brown sugar to sweeten the loaf.
