The other day at the grocery store I saw a gingerbread house kit and thought "oh, that'll be fun to put together with Q!", so I bought it. Things didn't turn out quite like I expected. For starters, despite the gingerbread pieces being already cut out, the edges are not all straight and you need to trim them yourself. Then the icing is in powder form and you have to add water and mix to the right consistency (which had I thought this through, I probably would have realized would be the case). But, we eventually got the house assembled and Quentin helped with adding decorations. Turns out my mixing of the orange icing was not the best and it started running all over as I was trying to pipe it nicely in place. Oh, well. We had a good time making it and had some leftover candy pieces to munch on after, too! :)
