I’m starting to think that gingerbread houses are a myth

Once. Alone. At 2am. Several beers in. Everyone a sleep.

It was peaceful.

The kids and I ate it later that day.

I forgot such thing existed but now when you mention it, I remembered it was one of those things I wish I could try to do as a kid but mom was like: "definitely not happening". 😆

You know where you went wrong.. Build Four..😷

Actually.. I just had a better idea.. Make several, just scatter the pieces on the table and let the kids plunder it. And you have a ginger bread trailer park, after the hurricane..😷

I have wasted so much money on these things.

I thought everyone made them but me 😅

Ive never had one, built one, or eaten one...😢

I've seen it only in movies

Watch a movie and whomever is doing it is exhibiting flawless craftsmanship. Mine however also usually end with “Well…at least we can still eat it.”

We built them every year when I was a kid, without those kits, with actual boxes of honeymaid gingerbread crackers, my Grandfather was a housing architect so he designed them, and us cousins built them together on our extended family xmas eve party. Most of them the size of doll houses with rooms and we got to demolish and eat them at our nye family gathering.

Lol, now you can buy a kit that has everything you need, with decent instructions
