Loved this beautiful move. One of my Christmas favorites.

Barbara Stanwyck shines as a Martha Stewart-type magazine columnist who gets in over her head when she agrees to cook Christmas dinner at her Connecticut farm, where she lives with her husband and baby, for her boss and a returning war hero in order to save her job. Just one problem: She can't cook. Also: There's no hubby or baby either. This romantic comedy works all year long.

This has always been one of my top Christmas movies of all time since I was a young girl. Granted I'm 35 now and it was filmed before in was born there is something so beautiful in the story line and Barbara Stanwyck's character reminds me so much of myself. The costumes are great, the acting is superb and the DVD quality is wonderful!

Acting was routinely good years back and stories had plots. Even a comedy such as this holds up after decades gone by. This is a fun movie...one of those with entertaining mix ups that occur even though intentions are good. Saucy for its day, it is good family fun now. Worth having in a movie library.

This movie is a classic - Barbara Stanwyck is wonderful in the role of a columnist pretending to be a perfect housewife to Dennis Morgan's war hero who is a big fan of hers. Everything is not as it seems though. Funny, sweet and a bit predictable laughter and love ensue.
