my wasted ham hock

after cooking my ham hock for 2 hrs i removed it and started throwing in whatever i had hoping it would miraculously turn into delicious potato soup.  i tossed in onions, potatoes, half and half, heavy cream, a can of cream of mushroom soup, a handful of cheddar cheese and a tub of creme fraiche, oh and some corn starch to try and salvage this poor pot of slop.  i know i should have at least glanced at a recipe but i was feeling way too lazy and unmotivated to stop by a store to pick up ingredients.  once i decided that i figured come whatever may and i'd make due with what i had at the house.

although it smelled extremely tasty i was left with mediocre results and a pot of runny soup.
