Holiday Festivities

We attended a lovely Gingerbread Making Soiree this weekend. It was a smashing hit. Owen and Libbie each got to invite a friend. The house smelled wonderful and it certainly put us in the Christmas spirit. I'm not sure they did much decorating. Lambert made the keen observation that the houses were sparsely adorned.... Which means they ate most of the architectural details that make a house a home.... That's okay... I have a recipe and the plan is to make home made gingerbread houses when the kids are out of school for Christmas break. The kids had a ball and that's all that matters.
