What do you do with ten pounds of ham?

We really wanted to have ham for New Year's Eve, but the smallest one Vons had was just shy of ten pounds. I managed to keep the side dishes reasonable (except for the cranberry sauce, because I friggin' LOVE cranberry sauce - can't believe I used to not like it), so we're not totally swamped in leftovers. However, despite a valiant effort, we still have a ridiculous quantity of ham. Aside from sandwiches and pea soup, what's your favorite way to use up leftover ham?

We tried to watch the NYE special early, you know, to convince Owen that it was midnight and he could go to sleep. Totally not so we could call it a night early. But, the first performance was Justin Bieber, and we decided we could skip the ball dropping this year. Luckily, Owen still believed it was bed time.

No resolutions for 2013, but a lot of optimism.
