    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Although it is implied that Jennifer does not know her way around around a kitchen, she is shown to have half decent knife skills, as, when she is chopping vegetables, she uses a chopping motion as opposed to a slicing motion which most people who do not know how to use a knife will do.
    • Goofs
      Jennifer throws out her Christmas cards she gets unopened. There are Christmas cards hung under the mantle and elsewhere in her home.
    • Quotes

    Possibly my favorite Hallmark Christmas
    I really love this movie. There's humor, romance, conflict, warmth and sentimentality. What's not to love about Henry Winkler? And there is real chemistry between the lead characters. A movie that even your husband may enjoy!
