Gingerbread House 2010
Monday, 24 January 2011
I know it’s a bit late to be posting photos of the gingerbread house, but since I shared the the last two here, it seemed only fitting that this one be recognized as well.
This year I had real help from The Girl. The Boy did help a bit, then wandered off to build Lego.
I very carefully wrapped the gingerbread house, and we brought it with us to New York. Miraculously, it survived the trip without so much as a crumb displaced.
I think I will have to bring our gingerbread house to New York every year for a photo shoot. It looks so much more festive surrounded by snow.
The kids are allowed to devour as much of the house as they can on Christmas Day, but somehow I forgot to give them the go-ahead. So the next day, while snow fell outside, the kids dug in.
The frosting held up so well that The Girl couldn’t even manage to break a piece off.
Finally her patience was rewarded. How sweet it is!
