Merry Christmas
As Chinese and non-Christian, we do not celebrate Christmas as a religious holiday. We do not skip it either. Instead, like typical Chinese living in America, we celebrate it by eating. In our case, it was cooking and eating some home-style food.
Also want to mention--I have no problem with "Merry Christmas", and I don't think it's a problem for most Chinese. After all, the festival has never had any religious meaning to us to begin with. It is just another holiday that sits nicely before the New Year to make the end-of-year rush easier to manage.

When my parents-in-laws were here, they almost cooked this twice or even three times a week. Yes they were good but after a couple times both of us got tired of eating the same thing.
