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.

Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.
Pizza night is always a favorite, especially when you have great tasting pizza from some of the most popular restaurants.

The recipe is quick (aside from carmelizing the sugar) and especially easy using the blender. I used a 2 quart Pyrex casserole dish, which is a perfect mold, but one has to be careful because it will be filled to the brim. It also took 1 hour 10 minutes to cook.
