I like traditions. One of my holiday traditions is to make a gingerbread house. Its not the most original tradition, as its followed by many people, but its something that I try and make sure I do every year at this time.
So we got the kit out on the weekend. Our front and back pieces were broken in the package, but we glued them together with some icing. Our first attempt to assemble failed, when one of the sides fell in while we were putting the roof on. So this is the second attempt, this time I'm waiting for it to dry a little before adding the weight of the roof.
The finished product. We each took a side to decorated. We got a little mixed up, because that is the roof I did, but Darryl decorated that side wall.
It turned out pretty good. And there was even left over candy, even though I was eating all the little coloured balls as we worked.
Wow, the messiness of the bottom window is really bugging me. I think I have a problem. I should probably just eat that wall so I don't have to look at it any more.
