[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 99186, member: 84"] Nichole and I have done several. Didn't turn out too bad, except it took so darn long to finish. And of course we had to buy more candy because they skimped on it. Each time we make one I have to threaten Nichole with bodily harm if she touches it before xmas night. Otherwise, it would be eaten the next day. She was I think 12 when we started doing them. I know I couldn't have done it with a younger child. There were too many times when our 4 arms didn't seem like enough. [img]:slap:[/img] Since her diabetes diagnosis there won't be one this year. (Yippee!!) Oh, then there was last year when Nichole was determine to do one by SCRATCH. [img]:nonono:[/img] Now I can make some awesome gingerbread men, cookies, and just plain gingerbread from scratch. But I couldn't seem to get it thru to her that the recipe isn't quite the same for a house. The end result has to come out sturdier. And then there is the whole shaping the thing, making a pattern and all....... A disaster that won't be repeated. [img]:rofl:[/img] I'll stick to gingerbread men that the grandkids can help the grown ups decorate. [img]:sled:[/img] [/QUOTE]
