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.

Pineapple and pork is nothing new, but pineapple stuffed pork is. Grilled chops with a pineapple stuffing and a tangy sauce hit all the right notes for a sweet and savory dinner.

4 pork loin rib chops, 1 inch thick
1 can (8 ounce size) pineapple slices in syrup
1/4 cup ketchup
1 tablespoon sliced green onions
1 tablespoon butter or margarine
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
salt and pepper
Cut pocket in each chop by cutting from fat side almost to bone edge. Season cavity with a little salt and pepper.
Drain pineapple, reserving juice. Cut enough slices of pineapple in half to yield a half slice per serving; cut up remaining pineapple and set aside.
Place a pineapple half-slice in pocket of each chop, round side out. Grill over medium coals on covered grill outdoors, about 20 minutes, turning once, or broil chops indoors.
Meanwhile, in small saucepan, combine ketchup, green onion, butter or margarine, mustard and the reserved pineapple and pineapple juice. Heat to boiling; reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes.
Grill chops 5 minutes more or until done, brushing with sauce. Spoon remaining sauce on chops before serving.

What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
