I'm going to try to have my brother and his kids over. And grill steaks.
Christmas Eve dinner is at our house and I've gotten as far as beer cheese in a loaf of rye bread, raspberry pie, key lime pie and cookies. I'm going to have to think of some other things.
My family has never done a big meal on Christmas. After all the holiday preparations, my mom doesn't want to cook anything. We have sandwiches. When we were little, my dad called them "discovery sandwiches" and he'd buy different kinds of bread, sliced meat and cheese from the deli, and various different spreads and fillings to make fancy sandwiches. As kids we still just stuck with ham and cheddar on wonder bread, but he got all excited to be able to have pastrami and swiss on rye, or whatever.
I have no idea and this thread is making me panic!Shrimp and grits for Christmas Eve. Maybe a salad? It is just the three of us.MIL, BIL and GMIL arrive on Christmas Day so maybe ham, scalloped potatoes, and ? Veggie of some sort? Pie or cake?I need to get to work on this!
