Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

This Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.
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.

This is one of my go to appetizer recipes. Found it in a novel about murder in a Colorado town and a lady who soves the murders and does catering for a living. I zap the artichoke bottoms for a few minutes to soften and than wrap in the bacon. I have been asked to take them to,a Kentucky Derby party. They are delicious and so easy.

I tried to cut the artichokes into eighths but they were so small it seemed pointless. I cut them into quarters and that worked fine. These are quite tasty but I'm not sure they are worth the work. I might experiment more with them.
This recipe means one can of artichoke bottoms - which will be 5 or 6. It is NOT 5 cans.
