Vanilla

1 bottle of Smirnoff vodka
2 vanilla beans

Using the tip of a sharp knife, make a slit in each vanilla bean from end to end.  Place beans in the vodka and replace the cap.  Leave on counter for 30 days, shaking the bottle every time you walk past it.  After 30 days, use as you would any vanilla.  Beans can be re-used for 10-12 months, or unitl they no longer have any scent left.
