Call it a Christmas miracle.

Tori Spelling and her mom, Candy, have not only started to play nice with one another, but things are going so well that they plan on spending the holidays together.

“It’s just a blessing that it happened around the holidays,” Tori says. “And it just makes me think, ‘Wow, it’s an amazing thing and it happened this year and it’s just the best gift we could get. We’re together as a family, and that’s the most important thing. We’re very lucky.”

Tori, who has two kids, Liam, 2, and Stella, 18 months, with husband Dean McDermott, has already been prepping for the big day with Candy, 63.

“I love traditions. I love baking and cooking and decorating,” Tori said. “Every day, we’re making cookies!”

Jenny McCarthy and Dean McDermott attended the “Elf Party” hosted by ABC in New York City today. The pair doing the rounds in support of their new movie “Santa Baby 2.”

“Santa Baby 2″ will premiere on Sunday, December 13, 2009 as part of ABC Family’s annual “25 Days of Christmas” programming event.

Dean was talking about the recent reconciliation between his wife, Tori Spelling, and her mother, Candy Spelling. Tori and Candy have been famously feuding up until recently.

Dean said his wife, Tori Spelling, and her mother, Candy Spelling, are keeping mum about their recent move toward rekindling their relationship after being estranged for some time.

“There’s been communication,” Dean confirmed.

Dean, who has two children with Tori – son Liam, who turns 3 in March, and Stella, 18 months — said Grandma Candy recently visited with the tots.

“Candy’s seen the kids and that’s what’s important,” he said.

While the two women both previously spoke out publicly about their estrangement over the years, Dean said they are taking it slow, and keeping things quiet this time around.

“We’ll see where it goes and we’ll just keep everything private the way it should be,” he said.

Dean added during his appearance on “Today” that Tori and Candy are “working towards stuff. Candy is seeing the kids so we’ll try and keep everything private and positive.”

After seeing Dean on “Today,” Tori complimented her man.

“love you in a Cardigan,” she posted on her Twitter account. “Oh hell, I just love ya period.”

It was a month ago that Candy Spelling chastised her daughter, Tori Spelling, for using her two kids as “reality show props.”

Maybe Candy was just jealous that she didn’t have a show of her own. Now, it looks like Candy is getting her own show.

Candy is saying her own show is “sort of” in the works. “But I can’t talk about it,” she quickly adds.

It would be “scripted,” Candy says. “I wouldn’t do reality.”

What does Tori think?

“I wish her the best,” she says. “That would be great.”

The mother-daughter feud between Candy and Tori Spelling continues. Their fight is getting so ridiculous, it is like something the late Aaron Spelling might have produced for TV.

Candy has written an insulting letter to her daughter, but instead of dropping it in the mail, she decided to post it on TMZ. Candy is particularly venomous and seems to tell Tori to just ‘get over’ their family problems. It seems to us that Candy doesn’t want to take any responsibility for any harm she might have caused in the relationship with her daughter. Can you imagine having a loved one going to the trouble of talking to the media, rather than just picking up the phone? Candy is unreal.

Here is the latest open letter from Candy Spelling, to her daughter Tori. Heartwarming, isn’t it?

TO: MIDDLE-AGED REALITY SHOW STARS (LIKE MY DAUGHTER)
FROM: CANDY SPELLING

I Know many middle-aged people have issues about their parents and their upbringing. I did. My memories didn’t match all those of my mother, and, funny thing, it’s the same way with my daughter.

Life has consequences. What you say is on the record. Other people have feelings.

I have a vested interest in this subject. My daughter, Tori’s, two-part season finale revolves around my granddaughter’s first birthday party and how she has made what seems like an agonizing decision to invite me.

Cue music. Cue sideways glances. Cue Lights.

I did get an invitation just in time for the RSVP deadline. I’m sure its delivery will be on next week’s episode with some comment about my house or driveway or street or something they won’t like. I wonder if that will be spread out over one part or two. Sigh.

A big party wasn’t how I envisioned meeting my granddaughter for the first time; but, hey, this is Hollywood, and my grandchildren have become reality show props, too. At the time I emailed “yes,” I didn’t realize I was being set up for a two-parter, even though it was clear I was being invited to be part of a segment for my daughter’s reality show.

Spoiler alert. Don’t read this if you plan to sit through an hour of people looking at their watches and saying “she’s late.” I decided my first meeting with my granddaughter should be on home video, not primetime cable; so I emailed that I would not be attending.

Back to other reality stars. My husband taught me that the plots have to be fresh and updated. The same old whining gets tired after a while. Enough complaining about what may or may not have happened during first grade or YMCA camp, or what vegetable you were forced to endure, especially when you are privileged enough to be on TV and get paid for it.

For all the reality show personalities, please remember that real life doesn’t get edited to make things better or worse or get better ratings. You’re responsible for what you do. Life isn’t just a show. And your families can’t just be props. Make your own season finale without creating conflicts you will regret later.

And the “feud” continues! Candy Spelling posted this open letter to daughter Tori Spelling on her website.

Can you imagine if a family member wrote a very public letter about an estranged relationship how you would feel? Granted, Tori and Candy have been open about their mother/daughter battles, but this open letter stuff is just icky.

Maybe Candy should just write Tori a big, fat check and then they can agree to disagree.

All of this publicity should sell an extra copy or two of the books that each one has written!

Tori Spelling denies that she and her mother, Candy Spelling, are feuding.

So why do things seem so frosty between them? Tori explains that the rift is exaggerated, but things aren’t exactly rosy between the ladies.

Candy Spelling, widow of legendary TV producer Aaron Spelling and mother of Tori Spelling, has put her 4.7-acre residence in Holmby Hills up for sale. Priced at $150 million, it’s currently the most expensive residential listing in the United States.

Candy says she wouldn’t be selling the 56,000-square-foot mansion that she’s lived since 1991 if she thought she’d reconcile with her estranged daughter Tori, her husband Dean, and their two children, Liam and Stella.

Candy’s memoir, Stories From Candyland, is due out March 31. She plans to move from her five-acre French Chateau-style mansion into a $47 million condo with 17,000 square feet; the same footage as her current attic.

17,000 square feet is still huge!

“I don’t see Tori and Dean anymore,” the 63-year-old grandmother says. “I used to see Liam, but no longer. And I’ve never met Stella.”

“I don’t even know where Tori lives,” Candy told “20/20” co-anchor Elizabeth Vargas.

Spelling, who was married to producer Aaron Spelling for 37 years before his death in 2007, says she’s not sure why Tori is angry with her. “I’ve tried to talk to her, but that doesn’t work. She may not even know why she’s angry.”

A rep for Tori Spelling had no comment.

Despite the family not getting along, Candy says: “If I had any hope that I would have a relationship with my grandchildren I would never sell this house. I’ve fantasized for years about a wonderful playhouse on the grounds for children.”

Although she spent four years planning the home before she moved in, she’s selling it now because, “It’s just me in this big house,” explains Candy.

Still, she hasn’t lost hope entirely. She made sure there is a playroom in her new condo in case the grandkids ever do visit.

“Someday my grandchildren will know who I am because of the trust funds I’ve set up, but I would like to be part of their lives now,” says Spelling. “I would have loved to have built that playhouse for them.”

Candy Spelling talks about the response that she is getting about her daughter’s new tell-all book, Stori Telling.
