Hi everyone,
Another Christmas therefore another Gingerbread House. This is one of our family traditions.
33 years ago I attended a Christmas Class at the local Contact Centre. With other class members I received a number of different recipes. I have made some the recipes from that class for many years. However, it is only the last couple of years that I have not made the biscuit recipe. Our daughter usually makes that recipe now but having a 9 month old baby changed things this year. The Gingerbread House decorating is still happening. This year the older boys were more methodical than precious years. The two 9 month olds just looked on in preparation for next years work.
Do you know, I have had only one disaster in 33 years. One year I tried a different recipe which was the disaster. So now I used the same recipe and same pattern. Over the years we have adopted some little kids as our kids have grown. It has always been about the time spent together decorating the gingerbread house rather than what it looks like. We have a 7, 5 year old and two 9 month old grandchildren. Whilst our adult kids are a bit over it, it is lovely seeing the next generation enjoy this tradition.
I hope you enjoy the photos.
Merry Christmas everyone. Please be safe on the roads during this season.
Many blessings for this season.
