I never made a gingerbread house. Never knew anyone that has until recently I got a bunch of pictures on face book from some young girls that knew my son. They were making a a couple of gingerbread houses. They were huge. They did a great job on them.
They look like lanterns to me eventhough they have a setting as if they were cottages. My mother had a pastry pusher that made cookies in different shapes. I never got into baking fancy stuff because my husband didn't want cake or cookies in the house as he would eat them all up at one sitting. Once he bought half a watermelon and after our morning coffee (when I still had coffee) he asked if I wanted any but I didn't. After lunch I said, "I'd like a slice of that watermelon now." "Sorry, " said he. "I ate it all."
Wishing you happy memories.
I heard that the latest Gingerbread item is perfume!
Just kidding!
Wishing you happy memories.
