vanilla

Okay so I'm going to admit I still use store bought vanilla. Gabe seems to do ok with it, but I would like to try cutting it out. Sooo curtesy of AnneMarie

3 vanilla beans 1 cup or so of potato vodka and use a mason jelly jar cut the beans in half so they will fit in the jar and then slice the beans in half length wise, leaving about an inch of the top bean intact, so its not completly sliced in half toss them in the jar, pour in the vodka (add more if you need to so it covers slices of the beans)throw the lid on and let it sit for 8 weeks in a cool dark cupboard, shaking it every so often and then top off with more vodka as you use it up. Can go for at least 6 months on the same beans :)

So excited to do this!
