Hey Grandpa, What's for Supper? Part 2

DW is throwing together soup from some leftovers and vegetables. We have a big bowl of au jus from making beef sandwiches the other day. That will be the base of the soup. White rice left over from Chinese food will be the primary starch in the soup. She's going to saute onion, bell pepper and carrots and add that to the soup as well.
 
Baking our 'Easter' ham, baked sweet potatoes, green beans, baked beans. Not quite sure what the Princess and I are going to do with an 8 + pound ham. Can I slice it and freeze some?
I section up the ham into large chunks for future uses, small diced for eggs/omlettes, and slices for sandwiches. I freeze the smaller stuff on waxed paper on a cookie sheet, then put into zip-lock bags so I can pull out what I want, when I want it. The larger chunks I vacumn seal and freeze. The ham looses water when it defrosts, but it is still tasty, just drain it before using it.

I freeze extra ham too.

I used the bone out of the freezer yesterday for beans
