Through the years, and because of this, Fred grows resentful.
This is a story of love, understanding, empathy, and personal growth.
It's a phenomenal movie and you will absolutely love it!
Plus, Vince Vaughn! Who doesn't love Vince Vaughn?!?!
Kevin Spacey is the only negative thing in this movie. I wish he wasn't in it, and he does spoil it for me some now becasue he's a disgusting human being, but I just overlook it and concentrate in the rest of the movie. I replace him in my mind.

Falling for Christmas on Netflix.
After losing her memory in a skiing accident, a spoiled heiress lands in the cozy care of a down-on-his-luck widower and his daughter at Christmastime.
I absolutely LOVED this movie.
First of all, Lindsay Lohan looks really good and she was awesome in the movie.
Chord Overstreet and Jack Wagner also star in it.
I flipping LOVE Chord.
Is it cliche? Yes.
Is it predictable? Yes.
But did I love it? Also YES!
If you like holiday movies that just make you feel good, watch it and fall for Christmas.

The Noel Diary on Netflix
A famous author returns to his childhood home at Christmas to settle his estranged mother's estate. Once there, he discovers a diary that may hold secrets to his own past and of a beautiful young woman on a mysterious journey of her own.
My thoughts:
I went in expecting just another Christmas movie. You know, cookie cutter low drama, holiday romance.
This isn’t that.
It’s categorized as a romantic comedy, but I found it surprisingly engaging. More poignant than funny. Though there were some funny parts.
Plus… there’s a gorgeous dog!
I really enjoyed it!
Starring: Justin Hartley, Barrett Doss, and Essence Atkins
I highly recommend it!

Watched Hanukkah on Rye today.
I think it premiered on Hallmark Channel last night. But it’s on Peacock TV today.
A matchmaker connects Molly and Jacob, but their new romance is put to the test when they realize that they are competing Jewish deli owners. Will a Hanukkah miracle keep them together?
Starring Yael Grobglas, Jeremy Jordan and Lisa Loeb.
I really enjoyed this one.
Rival deli owners, a matchmaking service, meddling families that you just love, and two grandmothers trying to fulfill their deceased immigrant mother’s greatest dreams.
Though I completely guessed the end, Iit was still touching and beautiful.
As a huge fan of holiday romance AND Jeremy Jordan (Supergirl alum) I recommend it and give it a thumbs up.
Plus… now I want Latkes, Sufganiyot, Honey Challah, and all of the other amazingly delicious food.

If you have Hallmark Movies and Mysteries make sure you catch it next time it's on. (Or Sling and Peacock. Plus, I think you can buy it, which I will probably do, on Amazon Prime Video.)
