And not necessarily for the better.<br /><br />You know, I should consider making this in the oven, splitting the batter between two muffin cups.

In fact, I miss the whole variety show genre. Bing, Bob, Perry, Carol Burnett..... And now we have reality shows. Sigh.

M...No, I don't get the Hallmark Channel either. Missing out on a lot of great movies that were inspired by Christian fiction. No fair! This is a kind of alternative Canadian channel that has a mix of everything and decided to show Christmas movies every evening at 8. Sadly -- there aren't that many great Christmas movies deserving of the time slot. :-) But this one was. So if I saw it on a non Hallmark Channel there's a chance you might be able to as well.<br /><br />Oh and I forgot to mention the Walton's Thanksgiving. Love watching that movie.Kavhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03719229222267994577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-75810978292480809162014-11-18T13:36:13.244-05:002014-11-18T13:36:13.244-05:00I'm a huge Grinch fan--both versions. :)I'm a huge Grinch fan--both versions. :)Missy Tippenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05480008023330542958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-55344415001742542342014-11-18T13:34:58.799-05:002014-11-18T13:34:58.799-05:00Thanks, Mindy!

And yes, we do cram a LOT of baking into one month. ;)<br /><br />It's a Wonderful Life is still one of my favorites. As a matter of fact, I just bought the DVD on sale last night. Our old VHS just can't compare. We usually atch it on TV, but my husband hates commercials so that he typically ends up leaving the room. Kind of spoils the whole family vibe. Even my boys like it, which impresses me to no end. A black and white movie with no shoot-em-up, bang-em-up going on. That's what happens when you have a message that transcends generations.<br /><br />Yeah, I gotta watch the Charlie Brown Christmas special, too. I grew up on it, so Christmas wouldn't be complete without it. Glad to know I'm not the only one who cries. You know what's even sadder? If they tried to do a new show for kids with a message like that in it, it probably wouldn't make it past the networks. Thank God for classics.Mindy Obenhaushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15049730175697756032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-9592569978876479252014-11-18T10:18:43.231-05:002014-11-18T10:18:43.231-05:00Oh -- and just saw North Pole on Saturday...did an...Oh -- and just saw North Pole on Saturday...did anyone see that?

Very cool. Think I'll try it but I'll have to dig up some of those recipes. Haven't cooked with coconut oil yet.<br /><br />We've already had our Thanksgiving up here -- it's the second Monday in October so that gives us some breathing room between Thanksgiving and Christmas. I don't know how you guys do it with two big cooking holidays so close to each other. <br /><br />Mmmmm....favourite Christmas movies. I have to confess to loving the old classics best. Miracle on 35th Street, It's a Wonderful Life, Holiday Inn. Current movies seem soooooo....silly, garish...not as emotional grabbing. There's a station up here that's started showing Christmas movies every evening and honestly, some of them are just dreadful. Lame plots, embarrassing acting, cringeworthy romance. Shudder. And I much prefer the cartoon version of The Grinch. Oh...and my holidays would not be complete without watching A Charlie Brown's Christmas. I always cry when Linus explains what Christmas is all about. Sigh.

And I'm not talking about the stores. It seems September and October just fly by and then, BOOM, the holidays are here, ready or not.<br /><br />The best thing you can do is just sit back and enjoy them. Don't stress over gifts and decor, simply rest in the season of blessings.
