Snuggle Up Underneath the Mistletoe with These Romantic Christmas Gifts
While I’ll admit that Christmas is not exactly a holiday that focuses entirely on romance, it’s obviously a pretty lovey-dovey time of year. Maybe it has something to do with all of those sparkling lights, the warm and gentle flicker of the fireplace, the undeniable urge to cuddle up and drown out the chill, or maybe it’s just a result of too much egg nog.
