We have gotten into the Christmas spirit around here! Sort of. You see, Mom and I decided to give making gingerbread houses another go. I'd found a recipe/tutorial for a smaller variation, which I sent to her, and we gave it a whack. Results?

Yeah, we're not the best at this. XD We were going to have four houses, but the pieces kept breaking, and the icing wouldn't stick, and one started to collapse as we tried to decorate the roof, so we ended up just going with the two best. That pile of "firewood" there are some of the leftover pieces Mom cut up. The snow is SnoCaps and coconut with a sprinkle of confectioner's sugar, and the lights/wreaths are mini M&Ms. I think we ever get it into our heads to try this again, we're just going to buy a kit. The "homemade" way doesn't work out well for us.

Thanks to that and general "red curse" malaise, it hasn't been the most productive of Saturdays. Nevertheless, I have a drabble for you:
Twenty-First Day )

And with that, I should go ahead and get something up on my personal tumblr before dinner. Night!
