And keep it going she must, when Gilbert - recently dumped by his wife - invites himself over for the farm's big holiday dinner (as advertised on Meadow Rise Farm's Instagram, thanks to Laurel herself). Laurel immediately goes into panic mode to figure out how she can trick Gilbert into thinking she's basically the Martha Stewart of rural Ohio and keep her job in the process.

Whatever the case, this promises to be the most eventful Christmas in ages.…
