I am not doing a gingerdead house this year. Whenever I do it seems I spend a lot of time and effort, at the end of which, all I have to show for myself is a huge mess to clean up and some candy covered abomination. Even so it is kind of fun. But no, not this year.
I did see Wilton has a gingerbread lighthouse. I'm thinking it might make a lovely Dark Tower, either
Tolkien's or
King's. It doesn't really matter which, since
all things serve the beam. Maybe the little entrance pieces could be cut and assembled to create a more Dark Towery top. Or in the case of my skills, a broken mess held together with lumpy icing and lots of swearing.
I think somehow these black and white Oreo candy canes could be incorporated.
Hmm, maybe next year.
Ha - lots of swearing. That's my kind of craft.
