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 package (10 ounce size) couscous
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large yellow onion, diced
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 red bell pepper, diced
3/4 cup golden raisins
1 can (28 ounce size) whole tomatoes, drained and roughly chopped
1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 teaspoons cumin
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 lemon, halved
directions
Prepare the couscous according to the package directions and set aside.
In a large skillet, over medium-low heat, heat the oil. Add the onion, salt and half of the black pepper. Cover and cook until the onion is softened, 5 to 7 minutes.
Add the bell pepper and raisins and cook for 4 minutes. Add the tomatoes and heat for 3 minutes.
Meanwhile, place the shrimp in a medium bowl and sprinkle with the cumin, cinnamon and remaining black pepper. Squeeze the lemon over the shrimp and toss to combine.
Add the shrimp - but not the liquid - to the tomato mixture in the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are pink and cooked through, about 3 minutes.
Fluff the couscous with a fork, divide it among individual plates and spoon the shrimp over the top.

Great! The raisins are a nice touch. Only thing we would have liked changed was the amount of time the shrimp had the spices on it. It probably should marinate a little longer to really absorb the cinnamon/cumin flavors more.
