We had a bridal shower for Lily and Marshall organized shooting at the gun club for a bachelor party for Trae. It was fun to celebrate Lily and shower her with gifts. We are all so excited for her and love Trae. My job was to bring a pulled ham. I stressed a lot over it because I had never made one. I read about ten recipes and they were all slightly different. I didn't know which one to settle on so I decided to combine a few. I slow cooked it in apple cider vinegar for 9 hours which was through the night. The next morning I shredded it. Then I mixed in some liquid smoke, pineapple juice, brown sugar, and a little garlic salt. All of my efforts paid off and the ham was yummy. A huge sigh of relief after that and a blessing of gratitude that it went well after a stressful week of car problems. My emotions were at the surface all week so if the ham hadn't turned out I would have been an emotional wreck.
