Gourmet's Creamy Coleslaw

I've never made coleslaw before, and felt like making some a few weeks ago.  My sometimes-sad store was out of cabbage though, so I didn't get around to making this until yesterday, when I finally had some cabbage in my fridge.  I want to make this next time we have pulled chicken or pulled pork, so I can pile it on top of the meat.  I bought the smallest head of cabbage I could find, but it was still over two pounds, so I only used half of it for one pound of cabbage.  (What am I gonna do with the other half of cabbage now?!  Lol.)
