The gingerbread train

This year we opted for the GingerTrain! Mark took over, as I was indisposed with the newest pup.


The most essential element to building a successful Gingerbread structure of any kind is dividing up the candy into 4 equal parts beforehand. You may even go so far as to make sure each has the same number of each color of candy. Don't underestimate their "fairness radar". Take preemptive measures!

Then...just go for it. Warning: Do not invest emotionally in the finished product. It's totally beside the point. The point is to have fun and sneak as much candy as possible without detection.





The new pup.


The final product with all the contributors. Mathew is trying out his "disgruntled" look lately.


The best part is taking it apart and eating it just moments after finishing it!
