For some reason I tend to do mexican the day (or 2)before a holiday....

I figure we're gonna be holiday leftovers for a few days so I usually go for something completely different.

For some strange reason, we have always either picked up fried chicken or pizza. Doesn't sound good now that I am thinking about it!

We have been doing much better at eating at home, so I am hoping that the fired chicken or pizza will be eliminated this year.

Almost always take out pizza. Mostly because there are a bunch of picky eaters getting together and you can please almost every one with pizza. Now it's just tradition.

Usually Mexican or Italian. Something that I know that we will not be eating the next day.

Hmmmm, I've never really thought about it. I don't think I make anything in particular. Just normally something easy because we either have company or I'm cleaning, getting ready for the next day, etc...

I'll have to pay attention this year

I don't cook the last couple of days before a holiday if I'm going to be making a special holiday meal. We use up whatever leftovers are in the fridge to make room for holiday leftovers.

We usually finish up any leftovers hanging around or have something really easy that won't make more leftovers like grilled cheese sandwiches.

Pasta or Pizza. This year will be on the road to the folks house, so probably McD's.
