Christmastime means performances filled with gaudy, poorly composed pieces whose only purpose is to rouse the spirits of audiences. But still, the band manages to add a little spark into each one that has me giving a standing ovation like the rest. It’s perfect as always.

You've mentioned that you would love to convince Hallmark to do some kind of musical movie. So many of the actors and actresses have incredible song/dance talents. Any chance this might be in the works? How can the fans help something like that to happen?

“All the work that we did paid off, and that feeling was incredible,” said Angie Chacko, the group’s public relations officer. She said that winning the Hallmark awards, “was more rewarding than anything.”

"It's funny, a friend of mine was producing it, he called me up and he said, "Lori, I need your help. I want to try to sell this into a series." There are people at Hallmark who I love, like Bill Abbott, the president. I have a fan in Bill and I'm so thankful for that. This producer knew that. He was like, "I want to put you in this show because I need a name to help me sell it into a series. If it goes into a series, you can have the option of being a part of it." I went in and I worked the show for literally one day, and then it went to series."

“Don’t judge a book by its cover” (Bradbury 155). This is most relevant to modern day society due to the fact that people tend to judge others by their appearance. In this case, Montag tended to judge a book how others believed they should be treated, but never did his society want to take a challenge onto their puny lives just like how Guy Montag did after realizing the real significance behind books. Ray Bradbury’s compelling novel, Fahrenheit 451, is about a fireman, Montag, whom is trying to seek happiness, and freedom by believing that books function as a human being that can help him solve the problem he is currently facing. This novel is based upon a chaotic, collapsed society that relies too much on technology, putting aside books and abolishing them as if they were something “evil.” In the beginning, Montag would burn books with much pleasure believing that books are considered “evil,” but later on in the novel he confronts Clarisse, Faber, and Granger whom guided Montag to realize how wonderful a book can be, how much meaning and depth they have to improve one’s life, and how they can make one feel “reborn.” The most relevant theme in this novel is that knowledge can lead one to success, but if one only relies on ignorance then they will never experience true success.

If Hallmark cast you as a lead in a future movie, which male actor would you like to have as your co-star? While he has not yet done a Hallmark film, I would love it if they brought on Eric Winter. He would make a great love interest. What do you hope is in store for your character (Andrea) in the next “Murder She Baked”

So without spoiling anything, you get a little taste of what's to come just from the little bit that Hallmark has already released. They've teased the idea that Elizabeth's job is at stake. And getting to show this stronger side of Elizabeth as she fights to do the thing she's really meant to do and is called to do.... that was a really powerful storyline to get to play. Lots

It is these three, however, who absolutely make the film what it is. Such unparalleled acting and interactions between Lucas, Rachael and Travis. No, it's not the "three stooges," for these three tell a much more compelling story and give stunningly impressive performances that far supersede the antics of those superb comedians from another era. While the story does involve a love triangle, Hallmark's writers seem to avoid the pitfalls we sometimes witness when viewing films that revolve around that particular issue. In fact, jealousy doesn't even seem to be the dilemma between the two young men. At least, not jealousy over the young lady's affections.

Many cord cutters have been awaiting the arrival of Hallmark Channel to a streaming service. There are few channels left that offer quality family entertainment, Hallmark Channel is one of them. Hallmark features original movies, primetime scripted series, annual specials, seasonal programming and lifestyle programming. The channel also shows classics series like “I Love Lucy,” “The Middle,” “Golden Girls,” and “Frasier.”

Whiteness are associated with polite and purity while color is associated with savagery and darkness. In the Twilight series, Bella said “It wasn’t just their eccentric clothes that made them seem wild but everything about them” (p. 612) This quote supports Wilsons argument that Jacob and other colored characters in the book are portrayed as animalistic and wild. On the other hand, Edward and the other white characters in the series are portrayed as Godliness. In the book it says “While Edward’s eyes and hair are gold, Jacob’s are dark” (p. 130) This once again supports Wilson’s point that Edward and the other white vampires are portrayed as being god-like and civilized. Wilsons argument on “Light Versus Dark, Civilized Versus Savage” was supported

Twilight was born a healthy baby girl weighing eight pounds and 19 ½ inches long. She met all of the developmental milestones with the exception of communication. Her parents were concerned that she was not talking and took her to her primary physician. They found out that she was tongue tied, but surgery was not required as it had resolved itself. Twilight had received all of her vaccinations. However, she was diagnosed with Whopping Cough at the age of six. Twilight missed two weeks of school. At the age of six, Twilight was diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD). She started taking Concerta and now, she takes Vyvanse (50 mg) in the morning and Clonidine (0.1 mg) at night to control her ADHD and sleep.

"Never shall I forget that night, the first night in the camp, which has turned my life into one long night, seven times cursed and seven times sealed. Never shall I forget that smoke. Never shall I forget the little wreaths of smoke beneath a silent blue sky. Never shall I forget those flames which consumed my faith forever. Never shall I forget that nocturnal silence which deprived me, for all eternity, of the desire to live. Never shall I forget those moments which murdered my God and my soul and turned my dreams to dust. Never shall I forget these things, even if I am condemned to live as long as God Himself. Never." (9)
