That’s always my second choice, too! I was rummaging around in the freezer last week and found a ham bone that Mom had given to me at Easter.
I made a big pot of Split Pea Soup. Heaven!
I buy ham all year ‘round. Like you said, so many yummy things to make with ham. :)

The holidays are a great time to pick up food on sale and put it in the fridge/freezer. For instance, St. Patricks day has corn beef far cheaper than at other times of the year. The stores are running good prices on turkeys and hams this week. Christmas (in my area at least) has a good selection of rib roasts on sale. etc.
