Gingerbread Exchange Community

Thank you - I'm so glad to hear that you can bake this ahead.  December is such a rush with everything else that it will be a great relief to have the gingerbread house assembled and ready for decorating.

I love gingerbread too, but didn't get to snack on the house.  I made a castle last year and after the holidays I put it outside by the woods and the birds and animals had a feast.  It broke my heart to do it because that was such an ordeal to make.  I understand some people manage to save them from one year to the next.
