Christmas movie essentials.



I'll write more soon, but for now I had to share the beloved Christmas films that have been on permanent loop at the Bailey house.  Who doesn't love the frumpily adorable Sandra Bullock in While You Were Sleeping and the mom who keeps repeating to herself at the dinner table, "These mashed potatoes are so creamy..."  Or precocious little pre-American Beauty Thora Birch in All I Want For Christmas?

A few more that must be added to the collection for next year:
Home Alone 2: Lost in New York
Miracle on 34th Street: the original
Polar Express
A Charlie Brown Christmas


If you have any other suggestions, please, share!

Well, I only know two of your recommendations. But how could you forget "Serendipity"? ;-)
And I would like to add "Under the Greenwood Tree", a sweet English Christmas romance, and of course lovely "Mary Poppins". BTW, I have just finished my eighth sort of cookies: coconut macaroons!! - Happy greetings from Switzerland!
