3rd Annual Gingerbread Jubilee


Wow, the Gingerbread Jubilee was a fantastic success! The first year we made one house and it was hard for everyone to crowd around. The second year we made two houses which worked quite well until one house collapsed. This year we made three houses, baked them until they were rock hard, and the party was a smashing success!

We had 15 people working on three houses, creating completely different masterpieces from the American-style sprawling mansion with an in-ground pool (with diving board), Coca-Cola plantation and satellite TV, to the luxurious home with a private slalom course and ice-skating rink, to the European villa with an EU flag, sleigh full of gifts, and balcony overlooking the enchanted forest.

So now it's your turn! Check out the three houses (front, back, sides and close-up shots of important details) and vote in the comments! The winning house will be prominently displayed on next year's invitation.
