Navy beans? Ugh, you have my sympathy. My wife use the ham bone and some ham to make a terrific split pea soup. Thick, filling, and tasty. The turkey carcass turns into turkey soup, boiling of the remaining meat and adding tomatoes, spices, and some other stuff.
Wife had me do stuffing a different way this year. Blend up the heart and gizzards, roughly chop fresh toast, add some herbs and bake it in a separate casserole dish. Turned out well. I've never been one for gizzards, but this really worked. Quite a contrast from the stuffing I received growing up, which my mother affectionately (and correctly) called glue.
On a side note: if the ham bone is done right, the mat shouldn't have to be sliced off. It ought to fall right of the bone. Also, be very mindful giving your dog that cooked bone. Cooked bones will sooner and can easily cause blockage and internal damage.
EDIT: Oh yeah, the holidays mean my in-law will be making pastries! Pizelles, biscotta, and the mother makes kahlua fudge with Mexican vanilla. Mmm... Gotta love Italian family - or at least their cooking.
