The Gingerbread House




For some odd reason, I'm feeling hungry. And what do I crave? Nothing other than gingerbread...gingerbread cookies, gingerbread bread...ginger anything! I've been smelling it and getting 3 pairs of sticky fingers all over it for the past hour and now I want to eat some! This is our first gingerbread house together. Last year the girls got to do it with grandma, so this year it was my turn! It was fun. And....sigh...I sacrificed a beloved bag of Reese's pieces to the cause. What a mom, what a mom....to give up her own hoarded candy for the enjoyment of her children! Sigh.... Well...ahem....I do confess I went through the Halloween candy to pick out and hide my favorites! Hahaahahaa (evil laugh) hahahahaa! Maybe the gingerbread house activity made up for that and I got my mom points back....

Ooh, tag! you're it. A blogging obligation I've put off for months now finally met. You just need to visit fundynutter.blogspot.com to find out what it means. Or wait until I come by this afternoon. Either way. :) And regarding the Zig Zag post: Very good pic! Zig Zag is fun. I've been waiting my whole entire life to go to the candy farm. Always my parents, and now my husband said "on the way home" knowing full well that it is on the wrong side of the road on the way home and I would never remember. However, I do like me some Wasson wine. Grandma brings us the Niagra for holidays.

Ooo fun! Let's make it a date, Traci - to the candy farm! And we'll go have that pizza too. Only I'll have to find out when the factory is working b/c the day we went they weren't actually making any candy and it was kind of a let down.
