That is so darn cute. What did you use that has peanuts in it for the sides?

Lynne

I got several cans of peanut brittle at the dollar store. They were $1 a can. THe PB was already cut in tiny squares. Prefect for the sides of the gingerbread house.

Wow that sure looked great for the rock siding for that restaurant. Did you do it for fun or were you getting paid? I'm doing Gingerbread tomorrow with my daughter and her friends. I'm a little behind. I have the dough made, but will probably cut and bake tomorrow before they get home from school.

It's wonderful!!! .........where do you get the time with a little one running around?

I'm telling you, I know April has to have some kind of time machine stashed away somewhere, or a clone in the closet. She always seems to get so much done, it's amazing, and she does it so well to boot! Sandy

That's awesome!! It is just like the real place! I love the Christmas tree and the candy cane poles. You are certainly one talented lady....I can't believe you got that done with the baby around. How do you do it? Thanks for sharing....I really love it.

Worked on it during her nap, and when she went to bed at night. My hubby watched her from about 7pm till bed time so she didn't bother me that much.

The Santa cookies are so cute. I bet the kids loved them. The gingerbread house is amazing. I love the detail. You do such wonderful work.

Wow April! It looks great...and so yummy. I may have to take gingerbread house lessons from you. The last time I attempted one, the roof fell in. DD was about 2 at the time, and we both laughed at our fallen house. LOL
