The Gingerbread Projects

The holiday parties continued this weekend. And so did the crafts. I went with John to his friend Mike's to make gingerbread/graham cracker houses.

And now I present to you the fruits of our labor.

Here's mine.

For the record, those are topiaries in front of the house. Although, Mike claimed it was very Lord of the Flies looking.

Here's John's.

Welcome to Haus Bukkake. I think John used half the bowl of icing on his lovely A-frame house.

Here's Mason's.

We are borg.

Actually, I think it looks a little like Homer's house.

Mike was still working on his house. Very meticulous, that one. But it was shaping up quite nicely.

This is Shawn's house.

shawn's gingerbread double wide trailer

A double wide trailer complete with an outhouse, fallen over snow man and half dead front lawn. White trash is the new black. It reminds me of one of my favorite holiday songs.

It's a scientific fact that all the best holiday songs have the word tampon in them.

Other photos are on Facebook and Flickr.

I so want to make a gingerbread house now! I've never done anything like that! How cool would that be? (wait does everyone do stuff like that over there? Am I sounding like a freak?) Your house looks lovely! And I like your choice of Christmas song too, it kind of sounds familiar to me though... can't think why.

So is that hot John I see??

You do have some woofy friends ;)

Nice houses men!

When it comes to the Borg and gingerbread houses, resistance is futile!

Beautiful work.

Happy Festivus!

That Lord of the Flies comment made this post all the more memorable! I can totally see it. :)

I'm loving the house that Borg built. It could probably withstand a tornado--or a full spread of torpedoes.

we are borg... double wide!!! ahahahahahaahahaha
