      1/2  C fresh halved strawberries
        1  5 to 8 lb smoked ham
        1  C strawberry wine
        1  C water
        1  tbsp Creole mustard
    
    Preheat oven to 350F.  Place the ham in a large roaster and arrange the
    strawberries on top.  Mix the wine, water, and creole mustard together,
    then pour over the top of the ham, and let it drip down the sides. 
    Bake 1 hour, basting every 20 min.  After the ham is baked, slice and
    serve topped with a Strawberry Sauce.
    
    Strawberry Sauce
    
        1  pt fresh whole strawberries, washed, stemmed and drained
      1/2  C sugar
        1  tsp ground cinnamon
      1/2  C water
      1/2  C strawberry wine or liqueur
    
    In a medium saucepan, mix all the ingredients together and cook
    covered over low heat until thickened, at least 3 hrs, stirring
    occasionally.  If you wish, mash the berries with a spoon.  This can be
    stored in the refrigerator for several weeks.
