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.

When a dish has "ambrosia" in the name it has a lot to live up to. Not to worry, this refreshing Hawaiian fruit salad is up to the task.

This Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.
Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

I make this recipe many times during the summer. I use the mandarin oranges in juice though not the syrup kind. Everyone always really enjoys this.

I used this same recipe for years and recently misplaced my card. I'm so happy to have found it again! Whenever I hold my luau every summer we make this dessert and there is NEVER any left at the end of the party!

Coconut Ambrosia is a wonderful addition to the meal no matter what the holiday is. It's a nice cold taste after hot mashed potatoes and gravey.
