For a few days I am going to post a few pictures of this year’s gingerbread creations courtesy of my mom. Lets start with first three gingerbread houses she made this year.
My mother had an excellent gingerbread recipe so her gingerbread houses were always delicious. However her engineering skills were minimal and usually they collapsed around three days after building. Fortunately her budding engineer child went to the department store and bought some balsa wood sections and made a timber frame for the next one. That frame lasted another 40 years before getting chucked out during her house clearance.

These are so amazing. I love the icicles on the roof, and the kitty in the yard.

The icicles, kitty and the chocolate chimney.
These are, again, exquisite.
