We bought this gingerbread house kit at the grocery story that seemed easy enough. It came with ready-made icing and all the pieces. There was even instructions. How could we fail?
It was easy enough to put together, but decorating it was a challenge. James wanted it to look like the picture on the box, and that wasn't going to happen. I've never been very good at arts and crafts.
I documented the gingerbread house for dummies experience in this photoset. The end result isn't quite what we expected, but I'm pretty sure it's edible.
