(Easter Ham) Baked Ham

1 3-6 lb ham
1/2 c. brown sugar
1 can sliced pinapple
maraschino cherries
or cloves

Place ham fat side up in a roasting pan. Score ham at 2 inch intervals in a diamond pattern. Mix brown sugar with 3/4- 1 c. pinapple juice and a little cherry juice. Place pineapple slices on top of ham and secure a cherry in the middle of each with a toothpick. Spread the br. sugar liquid over the ham, and cover with foil. Bake at 325 for 1 hour or maybe more. Baste the liquid over several times during baking. Let the ham set and rest a while before slicing.

Note: Grandpa uses cherries instead of cloves, but most scored ham has cloves poked. You could use both.
