I think I might make a gingerbread Christmas tree today to take to work on Sunday. I saw one that does every second biscuit as a sugar biscuit not gingerbread, which both looks good and suits people who don't like gingerbread. Last time I made one I used too much icing between the biscuits to join it together and it stuck as a solid gingerbread lump, so I won't be doing that again. I might skip the icing all together, just stack them up and dust with icing sugar.

There's a fine line between a really good gingerbread structure and one that's made of cement that you need a hammer to crack.

Um, track record not good. Especially when two children come and break off bits to eat. Make sure your pizza oven in the backyard is NOT lit.

Yeah I guess. You wouldn't starve so that's a bonus.
