Each of our girls were allowed to invite a non-Jewish friend to join us for a night of Chanukah. I told the story of the Jewish victory over Antiochus to Robin's friend and she didn't believe me when I explained the Jews had defeated teh Greeks (she's Greek Orthodox and has very strong ties to her Greek heritage).
We'll be going out for Chinese food with my parents and sister's family on Tuesday, followed by taking the kids to see "Enchanted."
For the reason Jews eat Chinese food on Christmas, you should read Christopher Moore's totally logical and reasonable explanation in the book Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal.
