Easter Ham Recipe

Recently I came across a ham recipe which would be perfect for Easter.

Orange Glazed Ham with Sweet Potatoes

  • 8 lb ham

  • cooking spray

  • 1 cup orange marmalade

  • 4 tbsp brown sugar

  • 1 tbsp honey mustard

  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger

  • 2 cans pineapple chunks, undrained

  • 3 cans sweet potatoes in light syrup, drained

Preheat oven to 325°F. Coat a shallow roasting pan with cooking spray and put ham in pan. Cover and bake for about 2 1/2 hours (depending on the size of your ham and if your ham is precooked; you want the internal temperature of your ham to be 150°-160°F when fully cooked).

Combine marmalade, brown sugar, honey mustard and ground ginger in a small bowl. Cover ham and baste with about 1/3 of the marmalade mixture. Reserve the remaining mixture for the next step. Drain the pineapple, reserving 1/3 cup of juice. Combine pineapple, and sweet potatoes. Add the 1/3 cup of reserved pineapple juice to the remaining marmalade mixture that you reserved before. Pour marmalade mixture over sweet potatoes/pineapple mixture and toss lightly. Arrange the sweet potatoes/pineapple mixture around the ham. Bake, uncovered for an additional 30 minutes or until ham and potatoes are heated through.

Sometimes We Score, Sometimes We Block

Our family is in the midst of little league soccer season. My youngest son is playing and his enthusiasm is contagious. He is pretty good at the sport, but what makes it so great is that he loves it! He counts the days until the next game or practice. He loves his coach and teammates. He has moved up an age level this year and the players are working more like team, passing to each other and watching out for each other during play. During the last game, my son scored two goals, they were the only goals of the game. In today's game the team scored eight goals. My son came up afterwards to me and said, "I didn't score today, but I blocked". What a powerful truth those words can hold. In life, sometimes we score, sometimes we block. Sometimes we do great things, we excel, we achieve, we meet our goal - we score! There are also times we see the needs of others, sometimes they are sad or hurting, we block their hits. We look out for them so they can score. We...

WFW – Write It On My Heart

This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel       after that time, declares the Lord.    I will put My laws in their minds       and write them on their hearts.    I will be their God,       and they will be My people.  Hebrews 8:10 On a recent field trip to a museum featuring the days gone by, we sat in an old schoolroom as the teacher introduced us to the quill pen and bottle of ink.  She cautioned us to use extreme caution using the ink and told us that if it got on our skin or clothes, it would not come off. This reminded me of this beautiful promise from Hebrews.  God told His people he would put His law in their minds and write it on their hearts.  This is a covenant which cannot be broken.  He loves us and wants us to know Him through His Word.  As we read more and more of His Word, it becomes w...

Construction, Challenges, Chaos

 Who knew something simple could erupt into something chaotic so quickly? A broken file cabinet forced us to purchase a new one. We found one online, ordered it and it arrived quickly with a do it yourself assembly book, complete with 24 part packages and 18 steps of instructions!  As we unpacked the items and compared with the instruction book, we realized a part was missing. Customer service was called, a replacement part was quickly received. Except, the screws did not fit into the holes on the replacement part. We tried again, received another part, same issue.  Meanwhile, the 24 packages of parts are spread out on my living room floor, customer service does not understand my issue, they asked for photos which were sent and now we are again, waiting for a part.  It seems every project faces the inevitable delay. My work place is undergoing a floor remodel. Upheaval, dust, packing, lots of inconvenience and depending on the work crew's schedule dictate the next fe...
