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

Have any of you ever successfully put one together without your kids eating it first? Or destroying it they never seem to hold up properly. 😭

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

It was peaceful.

The kids and I ate it later that day.

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 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". 😆

@CrazyMusicLover I remember one year my mom hot glued it. I mean, that was cool and all, but it was cheating plus we couldn’t eat it.

I’m convinced that they use different stuff than what they give us to use.

@MellyMel22 you might be right!

I have wasted so much money on these things.
DeluxedEdition · 26-30, F
@Ambroseguy80 no it’s not wasted money. You’re making memories and having fun with your family or kids. 😊

It might be a frustrating though lol

@DeluxedEdition it’s a waste of money when they stay in the boxes and nobody ever works on them though.

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 hot glue ours together lol

I've seen it only in movies
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.
