I love my grandpa's shrimp scampi that he makes every Christmas, but I am not going to get it this year because he moved down to Florida with my dad and stepmom!

But, this year DH and I are having my mom, bro and stepson over for Christmas eve and we're having a chinese Christmas eve. I am psyched. I LOVE chinese food and every opportunity to have it!!

My mother makes this salad called 'overnight salad'. Its NOT healthy LOL but its soo good.
Its cauliflower, bacon, and (jeez, I cant think right now)..anyway Oh, and mayo. Mix it all together, keep in fridge 'overnight' and serve cold. It sounds wierd, but I love it. She only makes it Christmas Eve. Yumm!
