Look at the fancy-shmancy work on this gingerbread house! We used uncooked rice for snow so it would cover up the aluminum foil base. Of course, then you need a secure fence around the perimeter to keep the rice in. Hence, all the marshmallows.
My favourite features of this house are the pine trees, made out of inverted ice cream cones covered in green icing and green froot loops. Guess who picked every green froot loop out of the friggin' cereal box? Note as well the Jersey Milk chocolate front door and the sprinkles 'n twizzlers sidewalk. Also, our snowman was smaller and more sober than before, with a jaunty peppermint and gumdrop hat.
This series concludes tomorrow with Our. Best. Gingerbread. House. EVER!

You two are very clever! Perhaps I'll have to make one with the boys next year....or this year...hmmmmm....
that is terrific..but I liked the drunk Santa.
This is so cool! Rice for snow is clever, too.
Very schmancy! The use of the bar of chocolate for the door is genius and I also love the pathway.
My girls are making some next week - I might point them in your direction for some inspiration - but luckily, we have no Fruit Loops (yet!).
I could never, ever make a gingerbread house look this nice, Debra! I love looking at them and would love to eat some of them possible. Really nice job!
If this one isn't the BEST one.....can't wait to see tomorrow's!
Love the details on this one....especially the front door. It SO works! Too much fun.

Don't panic if you perceive a hint of green in my words; it's envy.
Well, this is pretty fancy, Gals! Can't wait to see what the "best-est" looked like. :-)
Love the rice. This is probably on par with the best we ever did - as a child or parent. Can't wait to see the grand finale!
I like this one. It looks so yummy!! I look forward to seeing tomorrows. :)
truly a masterpiece of confectionery delights!!!
Your gingerbread house is beautiful!! Wish I could do that.
It's beautiful. I've never made gingerbread house before.
The whole house is beautiful, but I just love the surrounding hedge!
Wow that's a work of art! is it edible? Are you going to enter it in a gingerbread contest?

There's a sidewalk and everything!? Okay, I thought Hubz was into Christmas on a Zen level...but you really take the cake - or is that ginger bread house?
Yay! Holiday spirit!
