I’ve always had a thing for gingerbread houses. The design possibilities are endless, and it’s so much fun to gather the supplies and candy and let your imagination take over. For several years I made gingerbread houses every year with our grandson which I showed you here and here, but children get older and the enthusiasm for these types of crafts often wanes. But my love

A Gingerbread House From The Archives
I decided to bring this post out of the archives since I’ve noticed quite a few pins happening with not just my gingerbread houses, but others as well, so I’m thinking maybe there’s some interest in making these. This house was made last year for Christmas 2012. If you go here, you can see the other houses that we made starting with 2009. It’s fun
Gingerbread House Progressions
Ok, I know Christmas is over and most of us are ready to move on, but a couple of weeks ago I showed you this year’s Gingerbread House and mentioned I would post some pics of the houses our grandson and I have made over the years. I think it’s fun to look at how far he’s come! He is now 9, and I think
This Year’s Gingerbread House
For the last five years, our Grandson and I have gotten together a few weeks before Christmas to make a Gingerbread House. For the first two years, we took a workshop being offered at a local restaurant, but I decided it would be more fun to pick out our own candy and make them on our own, and it was! After the houses are finished,
The cutest house EVER!
Hey there! I hope you had a wonderful ‘unofficial end of summer’ weekend! We had great weather here in the Northeast, and we made the most of it. We headed out early on Wednesday night to our cabin for the weekend and were able to spend 5 days by the lake. It was heaven and we feel so fortunate we have such a lovely place
Log Cabin Tour
It’s been a while since I’ve shown you our cabin in detail. About five years actually. I thought about it often, but never took the time to take the photos. Now that the cabin is for sale, this will surely be the last tour, and what better time since I can take advantage of the professional photos that were recently taken? Let me share with
Bright Nights and Kringle
It’s been a super busy week my friends, but something tells me I don’t have to tell YOU that ;). In addition to the usual hubbub this time of year brings, we’re packing and getting things ready for our two month stay down South, but recently I had the opportunity to attend some fun holiday events so here goes. (I pumped this post out at warp
Take A ‘Peek’ (A Fun Blogging Tool)
Hello Friends! With Hanukkah and Christmas fast approaching, I’m guessing most of you are pretty busy right about now! But I hope you’re not too busy for this. I came across a web site a couple of weeks ago that I’ve been chompin’ at the bit to share with you! It’s called Peek and I love it, and you’re gonna love me for sharing it!
Cabin Home Tour
Would you like a tour of our weekend cabin? Who would you like to show you around? Think about that carefully, because if it’s me, this is what you’ll see… Upon opening the door to the screened in porch, you’ll enter one of my favorite spaces. You’ll often find me here drinking my morning coffee, surfing the internet (ok, Pinterest) or reading. I love to
Easy Homemade Holiday Gifts-Part 2
Here we go again. Just in case you didn’t get the hint with last week’s post, I really want you to get out of the mall and into the kitchen. You’ll thank me, your friends will thank me, and your wallet will too. I’m kinda crushing on these nutella marshmallows, and the espresso flavored sugar cubes are sheer genius. If you want to
