I'll just admit up front that I am super lazy about gingerbread houses. I have friends who make it all from scratch (the gingerbreads walls, icing, etc.), those who make their own icing and use graham crackers, and those whose creations are Pinterest worthy inspirations for others. I am not any of the above. I am the "how can we get through it with the least amount of bickering and mess possible" type of parent when it comes to this particular family activity. Bless Costco for their gingerbread house kits! At one time you used the premade icing that came in the kit to build the house structure and add all the trim, which I thought was pretty fantastically easy, but now the house come pre-assembled and all we have to do is add the trim (which is really the best part anyway). Each year they get
easier better and
easier better .
Let the festivities begin!
AH is always so careful with the details.
Besides the perk of sneaking candy while decorating, Mr. B also enjoys licking icing off the table.
Every gingerbread house needs a bloody gingerbread man on the roof (note the red bullet holes).
Fini!
