Re: Timeline forBaking Gingerbread House

My houses go to our big family gatherings at Christmas (there are more than 40 of us!), where they get “admired”, then at the New Years Eve party the kids get stuck in and break them down.  I love watching them gleefully shred it.  Everyone assumes I will be heartbroken after all that effort, but I’d be sadder if it weren’t enjoyed.  And I know there will always be another one the following year :)

Some of the best pics I have are of kids with their hands pulling apart the house and their tongues green from eating icing trees 🌲 .  It usually takes them about 20 minutes to demolish and portion out the house for eating. :)

One year my uncle put on his safety gear and goggles and had a photo shoot of him pretending to take a sledge hammer to it.  So much fun!

What I really want to do is take it to a children’s hospital, especially the paediatric oncology ward, but there are so many regulatoins and restrictoins these days, that I’d have to start a business and have a kitchen safety inspection before I could so it.  So, it keeps going to my family
