Candace's mother, Liz, is a nationally known do-it-yourselfer with recipes and knitting patterns. When she announces her retirement, Candace is expected to take over the company. The problem is that Candace can neither cook nor knit. Before Christmas, Liz has received a wish from a child to come and celebrate when the child's father returns from military service. Liz thinks it could be good publicity for the company but can't go herself but sends Candace in her place. Can Candace succeed despite her lack of abilities? Especially when she is being watched by the local journalist John.
A romantic film, not entirely surprising on the theme that you are good as you are. It doesn't quite reach all the way.
