Default Christmas Dinner????

Well, this year it's just going to be the three of us and we're just not wanting to spend six hours cooking, an hour eating, two hours cleaning, and three to five days of leftovers......

So....we're thinking Chinese buffet.....or something.

Anyone have any suggestions?

I-Hop or Denny's. J/K. While there are definitely more places open for Xmas dinner now than there used to be, you'll still want to call and make sure the place you want to go is in fact open.

Have a good one and I hope Santa is good to all of you!

If it was up to the little one it would be IHOP - it's her favorite. Half the time before we'd head out to Sam's (the Sat. nite thing) we'd stop at IHOP for dinner

I hope Santa is good too - I asked for heads and a cam, but I think I'm getting some DVDs....It's all good, though

Hope you and yours have a great Christmas!
