There is a local gingerbread competition going on, so I decided to enter something. Here is what I came up with...
It's my first go at making gingerbread- I thought it turned out pretty good.
If you're interested, the bricks are juicy fruit gum. The shingles and siding are gum as well (yes, there is root beer flavored gum. Lucky for me I guess). The tornado is a waffle cone covered in icing (took me forever to figure that one out). The windows and pond are melted hard candy. The window panes are spaghetti dipped in root beer extract. You do what you can to ensure it's all edible!
I'm not always this crazy with creating things- it's just the last couple months have had some opportunities that I wanted to do. I decided to take time to do things I enjoy, and the kids find a lot of joy as well. Here's to fun memories.

You better win something. That's so awesome. I can't believe it's all gingerbread.
We saw your gingerbread house on Saturday when we were at the mall!! Awesome, I didn't know it was yours. I must say that I am not surprised. You are so creative. It is amazing and so fun!
