gingerbread men


We finally got around to making gingerbread men this year--after Christmas. Ellie has been really interested in gingerbread this year. They did a big unit on it in school. So her Christmas book was Gingerbread Friends by Jan Brett. As part of the illustrations on each page there is a running recipe for gingerbread and she wanted to use that recipe. So that's what we did. It actually turned out really good. They had a great time decorating a few, but soon tired out. I'm glad I didn't make the double batch that I had considered.
