Of the non-bread variety that is... we are making a gingerbread house this year, for the first time ever. We've made lots of gingerbread men, women, trees and other beasts and plants in the past, so this is not such a stretch --- but the sprogs are old enough now to get excited about it, so this morning I sat down and sketched a house, figured out the dimensions, this afternoon LOML made the dough, and tomorrow we bake and build.
Quite exciting, really --- our first ever attempt at architecture from scratch. And I found a nice application of a 3-4-5 triangle too, to boot!
Pictures might or might not be forthcoming.....
Yours, gingerly,
N.

What fun!! good luck on your first attempt at architecture from scratch :)
Michele sent me to let you know we would all love some pics !
A gingerbread house! How exciting! I do hope there are photographs.
I'd love to see some pictures please breadbox!
Me too, I gotta see them!!
I too am anticipating photos - an a recipe? We attempted plain old eat as men gingerbread last week, but I am afraid either the recipe or the humidity made the men rather soft.
Thanks for visiting my blog - and you are ahead of me - I have not even contemplating building design in my Christmas strategisation!
