A very Nutty Christmas




Hey Everyone! Christmas is approaching quick!

I’m having a great holiday season so far! I’m enjoying all the Music and movies and celebrating the season of Christmas! 

Today I have decided to write about a movie called A VERY NUTTY CHRISTMAS! Starring Melissa Joan Hart and Barry Waston and a whole wonderful cast of people.

the movie starts off with a character named Kate who is a workaholic baker who has given up on Christmas especially this year, her boyfriend unfortunately dumps her while she still has to fill an order of 12,000 cookies before Christmas .

The name of her bakery is Dancing Flours bakery is always booming because kids come there after school and Santa shows up at her bakery, the Santa turns out to be Mark who is an actor who is dating Kate,Mark unexpectedly brakes up with her while she is slaving away over cookies, Kate asks him what’s the problem?? 

And he explains to her what is  going on ? And he sees that she made cookies and he grabbed a bunch and said that’s the way the cookie crumbles.

  Kate is very distraught and sad she decides to drown her sorrow with eggnog because her boyfriend Mark who played Santa broke up with her.

Kate makes a run to the Post Office, everyone who sees her asks about Mark and asks her if he will be coming to this or that, she starts getting tired of all the questions and yells that Mark broke up with her, the post lady is friends with Kate she takes her shopping to lift her spirits, they are shopping at the market Kate meets Dosselmeyer who is an Elderly man and wears a bowtie , he owns an antique store and talks about how Christmas is a magical time, his gift to her is a nutcracker which is the original nutcracker he came in a wooden crate.

 Kate is home alone and she is talking to her nutcracker, she wishes he would get through the holidays, she accidentally knocks him over and breaks his arm, the stroke of midnight some magic snow comes in the window and swirls around the nutcracker under the tree.

The next morning Kate is getting ready she looks at her phone and realizes she is late for work, she is downstairs and steps over the full grown nutcracker on her floor, then she trips over him, she helps the nutcracker up who is a little confused he is there to protect her.

Kate thinks he is there to for the house share she booked to replace her boyfriends room , Kate tells Rosa she thinks it’s weird her house share guy is standing in the middle of traffic outside their store , the nutcracker isn’t sure how the real world works and goes around telling people he sees nutcracker things.

 Kate tells him to stop acting so weird , she then spots her ex and wants to show off her new friend she gives him coffee and cookies.

 Rosa tells Kate to hire the nutcracker which is absolutely perfect because their nut cracking machine is broken and the nutcracker can crack the nuts very easily with his hands, Kate trades him something with an apron, the nutcrackers name is chip and he will work for Kate until Christmas, he is concerned about the mouse king .

You can’t say mouse in a bakery because of all the sweets and cookies and it could bring bad news to the bakery.

 The post lady gives Chip some new clothes that are from the 80s it doesn’t last long because he gets back in his uniform and decorates her house for Christmas.

Kate discovers a video of him cracking nuts has gone viral , he thinks that’s bad news and chip is used to entertaining while the bakers bake. Chip learns about the Christmas ball and invites Kate with a cute cake he made.

 Kate needs a outfit to wear, we then see a montage of Kate trying different dresses on, she also gets her makeup done and her hair done, it’s finally the night of the Christmas ball and Chip picks her up in a horse drawn carriage.

Chip gives her some ruby earrings and she gives him a scarf they pull up to the ball and everyone is super impressed and her boyfriend is feeling insecure and questioning his life choices,  Nutcracker music is playing as they enter the ball Kate is decked out in a white Victorian gown.

Kate explains to him how the Christmas ball works, there is an auction at the ball and she tells him he doesn’t have to be silent at a silent auction.

He tells her about his life as a solider, at the dinner Marks date is trying to kiss on Chip she is a masseuse so she massages his hands the nutcracker music plays again  Chip runs out to the dance floor with everyone else and starts dancing.

 Kate decides to go dance with Chip and disses Marks who offers her a dance, then it’s time for the silent auction and it begins and Kate ends up winning everything at the Auction.

Chip bids the highest number because he doesn’t understand how it works, she also Wins a trip and when she finds out she says looks like Kate is going to have a nutty Christmas, the next morning Chip gets to work early  on baking cookies, and you get to see a baking montage of Chip and Kate baking cookies together, they are really productive in the cookie making.

Kate gives everyone a day off because they are a day ahead now, Chip and Kate then build a snowman and go shopping and caroling and they decide to go ice skating and we see another montage, and then Kate tells Chip she is falling in love and guess what they kiss

You will have to see the movie to find out what happens next it is a happy and cute ending I assure you, I decided to write about this movie because it’s one of my favorite movies and I enjoy Melissa Joan Harts acting she is a amazing actress and really gets into the characters she plays and the role of the character she has in whatever movie or show she’s acting in. 

And the storyline is very cute and funny and heart warming, on a personal level I can relate to this movie on a personal note because this movie is called A Nutcracker Christmas, a couple Christmases ago I was hanging out with one of my good friends and I saw a nice Nutcracker and it’s a special memory I will always remember and cherish, from then on I get a nutcracker every year because the nutcracker has a special place in my heart. I have at least six nutcrackers and I like and enjoy all of them

I recently got a Nutcracker a couple days ago and I decided to name it Chip just like the nutcracker chip in the movie, you will hear him say at your service to Kate in the movie, he says it so kindly and caring from the heart. 

Maybe this Christmas we can be of good service to people like give them a happy smile, or ask them how they are doing , or telling them have a good day or you are a wonderful person and have a great heart or you are loved by many I think it would make their day and bless their heart because you never know what someone is going through and whatever you say to that person may make their day and feel happy inside with all they have going on. 

My favorite part of the movie is when Chip picks up Kate in a horse drawn carriage to go the Christmas ball it’s very romantic and heartfelt. 

I recommend this movie to anyone who wants to watch a good Christmas movie.

Christmas Cupid 💘



 Hey Everyone!!!!

 Merry almost Christmas, I hope you all are having a great holiday season so far ! I am having a great one!! I love Christmas and Christmas music so much !! The Christmas holiday and season just brings out my singing voice a lot! Music is one of my first loves !

 I’m doing countdowns to Christmas, spreading Christmas cheer ! I’m singing all my favorite Christmas songs and watching my favorite Christmas movies! 

Today I have decided to write about Christmas Cupid starring Christina Millian, Micheal Murray and Jack’ee harry and Ashley Benson and a whole wonderful cast of people.

 The movie starts out with a young woman named Sloane Spencer who is an ambitious and self involved publicist in Los Angeles planning the premiere of her client Caitlyn Quinn’s movie Snow Angel that premiers on Christmas .

She has to make this presentation perfect to beat her ex boyfriend Jason in order to get a promotion to vice president , and she is also dating her boss his name is Andrew and his family owns the company. 

Sloane’s mother would love to spend time with her and see her for the Christmas holiday, Sloane decides to work Christmas Day instead of visiting with her mom and spending Christmas with her , and she is also missing out on eating with her friend Jenny and her husband Ed at their struggling restaurant.

Caitlin has to be very careful she is a big celebrity and loves to party, and where ever she goes or does something the paparazzi seems to catch her in a bad light and then Sloane has to fix the situation and let the entertainment industry know that Caitlyn is a good girl even though she likes to party and have fun, and can get into trouble occasionally.

Sloane tells Caitlin to stay low and out of the spotlight for awhile so she doesn’t get any bad publicity, Caitlin tells Sloane ok, Caitlin decides to go to a party and is having a lot of fun, she calls Sloane and tells her where she is.

Caitlin also has a drink in her hand she has a martini and chokes on the olive and she ends up passing away.

Before this Caitlin calls Sloane on the phone again and she is having connection issues and she tells her to call her later, a couple hours pass and then she gets a call from her boyfriend Andrew and he asks her if she has seen the news, she turns on the tv and sees Caitlin has passed away from a Martini drink by choking on a olive.

Caitlin’s ghost then visits Sloane and tells her she needs to change her ways or she will pay the price, she then decides to go to the hospital to see Caitlin’s body , she runs into her ex boyfriend Patrick who is a doctor there.

She tells him what she has been seeing and then he tells her let’s sit down and talk and you can have some coffee, Sloane is worried about the movie premiere now that Caitlin has passed away, her ghost continues to follow her and interfere in her life.

Andrew puts Sloane in charge of Caitlin’s memorial and she decides to combine that with the movie premiere that she is also working on, Patrick calls her and asks her out on a date she hasn’t given him an answer yet.

At midnight that night she is visited by her first ex boyfriend Brad ex Christmas past who shows Sloane how she has her moms ways, he also reveals to Sloane she left Patrick to focus on her career, she sees that he was going to ask her to marry him, after that happened when she started dating other people she left before it got serious.

Finally Brad tells Sloane that her boyfriend Andrew is cheating on her, the next day Sloane confronts Andrew and asks him if he has been cheating on her, when he says yes she breaks up with him.

Sloane is getting worried about the premiere and the promotion and beating Jason Sloane decides to use her dinner reservations she had with Andrew and use them with Patrick instead.

The date is going wonderfully and as soon as they are about to kiss Andrew shows up and proposes to Sloane and she accepts his proposal, she completely forgets she’s on a date with Patrick, she is visited by Caitlin’s ghost again and the spirit of ex-mas present Jason who tell her how her thoughtlessness and self absorption affect those around her.

She sees her secretary Ella telling her little boy she won’t be home for Christmas and then Jenny and Ed talking about how Sloane takes her for granted and her mom finding out her husband won’t be home for Christmas she’ll be spending it alone later she finds out that her fiancé Andrew was on the phone while they were talking about their engagement and she sees Patrick is upset because she left in the middle of their dinner to go back to Andrew.

Jason and Caitlin both want Sloane to know if she doesn’t change her ways she will end up alone, Sloane decides to fix the relationships in her life and admits to Jenny she forgot to mail the invitations about the new restaurant in the gift baskets, Sloane then sees Andrew and he tells her that he can’t fall in love with who she is now . 

The last person she is visited by is Santa Claus to show her her future, she sees her mom and her moms dogs who’s name is Sloane, she is questioning her moms mental stability she has always seen Sloane as a person despite her moms dogs being her younger brothers she learns her moms marriage failed and the dogs seem to love her more than Sloane does.

 Vivian depends on them for support and then she sees her friends Jenny and Ed, Jenny’s restaurant failed and now she is a waitress at Applebees and her and Jenny’s friendship ended, she visits the hospital again and learns she never sees Patrick again after accepting Andrew’s proposal.

 He believes she is shallow and selfish, Sloane insists she does believe in love because her and Andrew are engaged and he won’t be her ex, the spirit laughs and reveals himself to be Andrew and tells her he is her ex-husband he leaves her because she cares more about her career than him, she is inside the hospital and sees how happy the patients are to have families and friends visiting them for Christmas.

She sees that she is a patient in the hospital and notices she hasn’t had any visitors or any cards or anything she’s all alone, she learns from Andrew no one came to visit her because they are mad at the way she left them hanging in their times of need, as a result she passed away sadly, just as Jason and Caitlin predicted.

 Sloane pleads with Andrew to help her he refuses and says she got what she deserved , before he leaves he tells her if she would have been more caring toward others she wouldn’t have ended up alone, the next morning Sloane decides to make amends and fix her life. You will have to se the movie to find out what happens next.

 I decided to write about this movie because it talks about showing compassion and caring for others besides yourself because you know never know what someone is going through in life or how their day is going.

I think part of my personality is compassion my mom says that I am a very passionate person, my mom also tells me that I’m also very empathetic and I’m able to feel what the other person is going through and share encouraging and nice words with them or let them know that I’m there for them and everything will be ok, like for example my big sister is very empathetic towards me like whenever I’m having a bad day or in a situation that is stressful she is able to help me relax and feel better with  whatever the situation was that stressing me and we have things in common too which I think is also nice, she is the best big sister I could ever ask for.

 I adore her family her parents always make me smile too, and I also have other close friends that I can talk to and they cheer me up too.

And my cousins that I reach out too, they care and love me as much as I Love them. Always show kindness and be caring towards people even if they aren’t kind or caring towards you at first show them how kind and caring you can be, and I think once they see how kind you are they will be kind right back and they will appreciate you being kind to them.

My favorite scene from the movie is when Sloane stands up for herself and tells off Jason, and she tells him all that she has done for Caitlin and how she is a good and hard worker and tells him to back off and to let her do her job and she tells him that she Will get the promotion because she has put a lot of work and effort into it. 

Christina Milian does an outstanding job in this movie she really brings her character to life and it’s like her character is a real human being in the world she has done a lot of good movies and continuing to do good movies.

I also like her in love don’t cost a thing and snow globe, memories of Christmas and bring it on fight to the finish and Resort to love all amazing movies that she does an amazing job in. 

I recommend this movie to Anyone who wants to sit and relax and watch a good holiday film

Four Christmases



Hey Everyone!!!! It’s December Yay! 

My favorite holiday season, I love Christmas 🎄!!! I have decided to write about one of my favorite Christmas movies 4 Christmases it’s a funny movie and sure to put a smile on your face.

I hope you all are having an awesome December so far, mine is good so far, my head is so full of different things to do with Christmas, like all the shopping and decorating,  and making different kinds of goodies like cookies, or hot chocolate. 

It seems like in the beginning you have a lot of time as time goes on you start to realize you have very little time and so much to do !

 It all works out in the end, you have all the gifts ready and your tree up, and all the lights and decorations and you are ready to celebrate and have a merry time.  

The movie stars Reese Witherspoon, Vince Vaughn,  Katy Mixon, Kristin Chenoweth, Tim McGraw Robert Duvall and a whole lovely cast of people.

The movie starts off with Brad and Kate who are a young unhappily married couple living in San Francisco.

They are three years into their relationship and remain uninterested in marriage and kids, they role play as strangers and take dance lessons for the fun of it and avoid their dysfunctional families by traveling abroad for charity work.

it is now Christmas time and Brad and Kate plan a vacation to go to Fiji, unfortunately heavy fog grounds the entire airport.

They are unexpectedly interviewed by a tv crew that notifies their families their holiday plans are canceled forcing them to visit all four of their divorced parents in one day, the first reluctant trip they make is to see brads dad Howard and his amateur cage fighting brothers, named Dallas and Denver Kate is surprised to find out while she is visiting with the family brads real name is Orlando.

The family had a budget for Christmas gifts and Brad insisted he didn’t know about the budget he bought expensive gifts and that really brings tension to the family, and Kate sees his nephews out of control and sees his sister in law Susan is pregnant and that leaves Kate to wonder if she wants kids in the future.

 The visit ends in a disaster after Brad falls off the roof trying to put up a satellite dish that he bought for his dad to have better tv channels, the next parent they visit is  Kate’s mother Marilyn, Brad meets Kate’s  flirtation relatives and they show Brad a scrapbook photo of Kate which is embarrassing to her of her childhood.

Kate decided to a pregnancy test on a whim, her niece takes the test and runs with it outside and Kate runs to get the test back from her niece and she sees the test is negative, a little later in the visit they go to church and it is a service led by her mom’s boyfriend Pastor Phil.

 Brad gets carried away when him and Kate get a part in the pageant, he humiliates Kate when they are forced to play Mary and Joesph in the Christmas story.

They decide to visit Brads mother next her name is Paula whose boyfriend Darryl is his childhood best friend much to Brad’s discomfort, they play a game of taboo with a couple other couples, the game strains their relationship further and they end up having an argument in the car about their future.

Kate tries to tell him about the negative pregnancy test and Brad reveals he doesn’t want kids , Kate realizes she wants something deeper Brad drops her off at her dads house and he drives away, Kate’s father advises her to spend time with family and value her time with family and embrace honesty, Brad goes back to see his father and his fear is being similarly bitter and alone, he makes up his mind and commits himself to Kate. 

You will have to see the movie to find out what happens next I can tell you it is a happy ending and there are smiles all around for everyone , I decided to write about this movie because I like how it talks about family, and all the feelings and emotions people have during the holidays.

Christmas is a fun time of the year, and it does have a lot of joy and happiness and love surrounding it sometimes it can feel stressful because of all the shopping, and doing all the decorating and putting up the tree, and putting all the lights and the ornaments and everything on the tree which is fun it’s also a lot of work and some families are missing loved ones that have passed on and they want to make Christmas extra special for their Kids because their loved one or someone special in their life has passed on and they are really missing them, they still want to keep their memory alive and presence known they also want the kids to know that it will be ok and that their loved one is always with them and watching over them. 

And to remember all the memories they had with them and that’s a way of keeping their memory alive even when they are gone.

 I want you all to know even though Christmas can sometimes be stressful and a lot to handle at some points everything always works out at the end, and it’s worth it to see happy smiling faces all around, and make sure to take time to sit and talk with your family and friends and say whatever is on your heart to say because you never know when the last time is going to be that you see that person, for example I love the show full house, my favorite character was Jesse Katsopolis, John Stamos character he was so full of life and fun and very lovable, he has a big and incredible heart and loves his family and his nieces especially his little niece Michelle.

 I loved their relationship he treated her like she was his daughter the love they had for one another was a beautiful thing to see, the characters they played Jesse and Michelle didn’t seem like  they were playing tv characters it felt to me like they were real people, they put their whole heart and spirit in their characters.

My story is Bob Saget the main character he played Danny Tanner and he played an incredible and amazing dad , you could tell he really loved his family and his friends, he loved his three girls that played his daughters like they were his own, and loved his brother in Law Jesse and his best friend Joey like his own brothers as well, Dave Coulier who played Joey Called him John and bob saget thick as theives because of how close they all were.  

The story is John and Bob had met up for dinner together, and they were talking and catching up on life and John was ready to go and then the waiter came and said do you all want dessert and Bob said yes we will have desert and let me have some more coffee and John had said yes I’ll have some coffee and desert and then he said that Bob wanted to take his time and enjoy the time he had with his friend and enjoy the dessert he didn’t know that was the last time he’d have a meal with him or see him in person for the last time, he was glad that he got to talk with him and have his dessert and coffee.

My point is if anyone invites you out to lunch or dinner enjoy your time with them  and spending time with that person  and enjoy the delicious meal and desert and take your time talking to them because you don’t know if when or if that’s the last time you will ever see or talk to that person again.  

One more example is about my Uncle Herb, I love him very much, he has passed away one of my last moments with him I didn’t know that was going to be a last moment , was when they  came up for my high school graduation he drove my grandma all the way up from Maryland to Pennsylvania to see me graduate from high school I was so happy and elated to see them!!!! 

And the other special part is he drove me to my high school graduation, my mom was getting worried because she thought we wouldn’t make it in time, I was just enjoying the ride he loved taking shortcuts and he’s talking to me about my graduation and enjoying the view and my mom and grandma are both asking if he’s going the right way ?

 He said yes I know where I’m going… guess what we end up arriving where my graduation was being held before my mom and dad and my other uncle arrives my mom was amazed of how he got there so quick. 

I have so many other fun and exciting memories with my uncle that is one I’ll always treasure ! 

I guess my uncle Herb to me was like Uncle Jesse from full house! 

He loved motorcycles too! Cherish and treasure the time you have with your family because time is short. And make every  moment special and count. 

And If you were wronged by someone or you accidentally did something to agitate someone ask for forgiveness not for the other person but for you because you will feel so much better on the inside and not have to carry that weight around you inside anymore you will feel lighter and happier and not have any regrets.

 My favorite scene from the movie is when Brad is Kate’s family’s house and Kate is holding the baby and the baby does something to her and Brad does something funny with his face you will have to see the movie to find out what it is, it will make you laugh out loud. 

I recommend this movie to anyone who wants a good holiday family friendly movie
