Comments (45)Raeanne - You are so right about having to sit down and have a good cry if that sauce fell!! Now I think I will be even MORE cautious carrying it downstairs! LOL Don't beat yourself up about the cheesecake. We have to allow ourselves treats. The trick is to take small amounts and stop when you are satisfied. I am finding that the longer I stay away from sweets, the easier it is to take only a small bite or two. The fear that I will become addicted again is too great! And the fear that my new pants won't fit is even greater! LOL Speaking of sweets, I am testing my willpower today and making pumpkin bread for a bake sale. I just put 6 mini loaves in the oven (and didn't lick the beaters or my fingers) and plan on giving 5 away and keeping one for DH and I. I will have my share for breakfast and when it is gone, there won't be anything else to tempt me. This is what I have been doing since July and it has been working so far. Then I am making a banana cake for my sewing club and I plan on having a small piece Tuesday night and giving away what ever is left. The ladies can each take a piece home, I will take some into work for the secretary and my cohorts, and DH could take some to work if there is any left after that. I still don't trust myself to have the leftovers sitting around for a week while I wait for DH to eat them. Laundry calls! I washed a Kleenex this morning in with a dark load and you know what that means. 1000s of little white flecks all over the place. I put the load in the dryer, but it didn't get rid of all the flecks, so I am running the load through the rinse cycle. Sheesh! Like I don't have enough to do. And I can't even blame the Kleenex on DD since she doesn't live here anymore! LOL Later, Marci...See MoreTips for a good, moist, ham?
Comments (30)Trsinc: Instead of plopping the Pineapple in a dish, why don't you plop it in a Sauce Pan and make a Sauce. A lot of people like Pineapple Sauce with Baked Ham, along with the Ham gravy. They will have have a choice. We use both. Gravy is good on the Potatoes. LOU'S , SIMPLE PINEAPPLE SAUCE for HAM Empty a can of Crushed Pineapple in a Sauce Pan and start to simmer. Add a cup of Orange Juice or more later if needed and a pinch of Powdered Cloves , with a squirt of Lemon . Sweeten to taste with Sugar. Simmer til the Pineapple softens add more Orange juice if needed and thicken with Corn Starch. It will thicken more when it cools. Add what ever to taste. Should be like a soft Pie Filling. LOU - - - - - - - - - - - - For the Gravy I do the same as some others. Take the Ham out of the Roasting Pan, add water if needed. According to how much you want to make. If I don't use Cloves on top of the Ham , I'll add a pinch of powdered Cloves to the Juices. Add a tablespoon of Tomatoes mushed up or a spoon of Ketsup thinned with a little water. 1/2 Teaspoon of Onion and Garlic Powder or to taste. Bring the Juices to a slow Boil and loosen the hardened stuff on the bottom of the Pan. Give it a taste test. I add a spoon of Chicken Soup Base if it has a weak taste. Thicken; to your liking , with Corn Starch mixed in cold water. It will thicken more as it cools. Happy Holiday !!! Lou - - - - - - - - - - - -...See More14 Hours and 15 minutes to go...

Comments (13)I had DD check at Sams in her town, they said NO hams??? She has Super Walmart too tho and will check there tomorrow! She will be home Saturday and will bring it then. After only paying $23 and some cents for a 20 pound turkey I am NOT paying $43 for a ham! I know they are cheaper elsewhere. We have one grocery store and the prices are outrageous. We can save $1.50 minimum on so many things at Walmart. Sometimes up to $3.00 less. Thats on ONE item, but never seen meat at our Walmart 45 miles away. I hate living in the boonies!...See More- 2 years agolast modified: 2 years ago
