Gingerbread House

This year we decided to make gingerbread houses from scratch. Ashley was the one most interested in it, but Adahleigh sure liked sampling all the different types of candy.


Everything was going well, but the frosting wasn't drying very fast. To help the house from collapsing we put candy cane braces at the edge of the roof (as you can see).

The braces only prolonged the inevitable, so after about a half and hour the house looked like this.

After about an hour or so this ended up being the end product, without any help from Adahleigh.
