Going to MIL house. It will be lasagna, salad, garlic bread, spinach dip, fried tators and several finger foods.
I changed my mind on what I'm bringing. I'm going to make a taco dip with tortillas. We do weird food combos.

Either steak or baked ham - whatever DH feels like cooking. The other we will have for Christmas day.
Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.

Prime rib, oven-roasted potatoes, a nice green salad, a side of corn (for my nephew), a side of rice (for my mother), a nice Merlot to wash everything down, and a white cake with strawberry filling for dessert.

MadHen, Your dinner sounds wonderful, Yum!
Debbie, I'm loving those homemade rolls. I took the easy road this year and bought King Hawaiin rolls!
We are going to MIL & FIL for Christmas Eve. She always has way too much food. In short there will be ham & roast beef, deviled eggs, cheese platter, shrimp, crab dip.....Just too much, but that's my MIL's tradition more food then anyone can possibly consume in a sitting, or 2 or 3 for that matter.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
