No second thoughts (at first). I am pumped. So, I hit the cookbooks, the internet, in search of the "Oh, so perfect gingerbread house recipe" (*Please note, there is a difference in gingerbread cookies, gingerbread, and gingerbread house recipes, much, much difference in consistency between the three, I may have to earmark that for a later post!)
So, as the saga continues, I find some comparable recipes, look at them side by side, as my husband keeps mumbling about how he made a gingerbread house from scratch in middle school, how hard could this be? why such intense decisions about gingerbread? So, I continue to contemplate, and choose one primarily based on not having to triple the recipe and not use so much molasses because DANG IT I just don't have that much molasses in my cupboards! (yes, I said cupboards, I am old fashioned and from the south!)
So, recipe in hand, ingredients out
Here I go!!!! The saga begins... More to come folks, so stay tuned!!! Will the gingerbread house succeed or just crumble??? (du...du...du...)
