Here's a recipe that I found for you to try. I am sending it to both
the newsgroups and to your email addy. This is great for gifts for
the holiday with a few recipes for cookies using the vanilla.

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.05
Title: HOMEMADE VANILLA-BOTTLED GIFTS
Categories: Condiments, Gifts, Mixes, Alcohol
Yield: 1 Recipe
High quality bourbon
Fresh vanilla beans
Mix some medium good to high quality BOURBON with a few FRESH
VANILLA BEANS. Cut open beans length-wise (slit them). Put in a
big crock or jar with bourbon (lots). Let age for 2-3 months.
Transfer to smaller bottles.
FOR GIFTS: Decorate with cute label and red/green ribbon.
This is good homemade vanilla. Include a recipe using Vanilla
(cookies, french toast, etc.)
Some people like to make vanilla using vodka instead of bourbon.
Judi's notes: This doesn't say how many vanilla beans to use, but
I would guess about 8 or 9 would do it.
