This is a little last minute for me but, I just baked this batch of gingerbread men and I couldn’t wait to share this post with you. To me, these cute little fellas really know how to set the Christmas mood in my kitchen. They leave a lovely earthy scent that beats any scented candles out there. It can be very intoxicating.
Every year I try to dress them up differently to welcome the holidays, sometimes I give them tiny bow ties and sometimes i give them cute little buttons. This year I piped a bright red hearts on to each of them with some royal icing and they turn out looking pretty darn sweet.
I am putting a rush on this post, just so I will make it in time to wish all of you a Merry Christmas!!
I am really excited about Christmas Eve and I just can’t wait to cook my thirteen pound bird. She is a real beauty and I am hoping, delicious too. This year I am going with simplicity. It won’t be anything over the top, just the good old fashion Christmas Eve dinner with lots of egg nog. Then for the next couple of days, we will be having a whole lot of left overs. So, it’s kinda like, Christmas all over again.

What cute gingerbread men! I love the heart on them. Seems like whenever I made them, about half end up in “the hospital” being pieced together with frosting. 🙂
