I feel really stupid for having to ask, but I've never served a
spiral-sliced ham before. It will be for sandwiches at a post-christening
lunch. Do I have to warm it up, or can I just unwrap it, stick it on a
platter, slice off some starter slices, and serve?

Some of our guests can't stay long, so I want to have stuff we can whisk out
of the fridge the minute we get home (we won't eat right that minute...but I
won't have to heat things or do last-minute prep etc.). Will the chill come
off the ham better if I slice it off the bone beforehand? I will have
plenty of prep time in the morning before church.

Besides the ham, I'm planning to make baked beans in a crock pot, a pasta
salad, spinach salad, chopped fresh pineapple, a veggie pltter, and assorted
breads, rolls, cheeses and condiments for the ham. Pickles and olives, too.
My mother-in-law will bring devilled eggs. Dessert will be a cake from a
wonderful neighborhood cake baker. (The poor baby...the partiy's in his
honor and he won't get to eat any of this stuff!)

Last question....has anyone ever had a spiral-slices hamj from BJ's? How
was it.
