My mom went out and surprised me by getting me a gingerbread kit!! I was honestly speechless and full of joy as weird and nerdy as that may seem. I immediately sent a snap chat to all of my friends cause why not, right?
When I opened the packaging and took out the tray holding the walls and roof of the gingerbread house, I quickly unrapped it. The smell of gingerbread was so amazing! It smelt like winter and Christmas, although I've never made homemade gingerbread before.
Luckily, there were directions on the back of the box!
Now, to be honest, I'm not one to read directions. I like to just go for it haha is anyone else the same way??
In the end, I was lost and had know clue how to start this thing, so, I decided to follow the pictures on the back of the box and it got me this lovely house! I felt so accomplished.
I had enough icing to finish putting together the house (I tasted it along the way, but who doesn't?). I didn't know how to decorate the house so I just did what I thought would look fun. I was a little disappointed with the decoration candy because they weren't super colorful. But I think I made it work haha.
Do you guys ever build gingerbread houses during this time??
