Well, the daughter wanted to know why that was, so she went to her Grandma and asked her. Grandma said, "Because that's the way MY mother did it". So the girl went to great-grandma and asked her why she cut the end of the ham off before she baked it. Great grandma answered her --------"because it wouldn't fit in my pan if I didn't"
