Casserole and time warp

I was trying to figure out what to make with some leftover kielbasa & a bunch of sweet potatoes yetserday. So I made up this casserole. Something about the comination of casseroleness, using up leftovers, and canned pineapples brought on a flashback to the 1950s.

2 lbs. sweet potatoes
1 lb. light kielbasa, thinly sliced into rounds
2 tsp. cinnamon
2 tsp. allspice
1/2 tsp. cloves
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 can (24 oz.) crushed pineapple in juice, drained, reserving juice
1 lb. onions, sliced thinly
3-4 tblsp. sugar
1-2 tblsp. olive oil
1 tblsp butter or margarine

1. Bake sweet potatoes about one hour at 400.
2. Meanwhile, mix together spices, salt and pepper.
3. When cool enough to handle, peel and mash potatoes with reserved pineapple juice, and 3 tsps. of spice mixture.
4. Spread in 13x9 pan. Top with sliced kielbasa. Mix pineapple with 1 tsp. of spice mixture. Put into 350 oven for about 40 minutes.
5. Meanwhile, cook onions in olive oil until translucent. Mix in suger and the rest of the spice mixture. Add butter and stir until lightly browned. Pour on top of casserole and cook for 5-10 minutes more.
