Doing a gingerbread house is not the newest idea of course, but I am doing it every year on christmas with great fun. This year I had the (supposed to be!) glorious idea of baking a complete gingerbread village with many of tiny houses and deers and sweets around, without thinking how much efforts and time-consuming that would be.
I had the idea of a village quite some weeks in my head already and was so eager of doing it. Well, no sooner said than done, I prepared double amount of gingerbread dough wednesday after work and stayed up until midnight, because I wanted the village to be finished before saturday eve, when I had some friends over for christmas dinner.
The difficult part was to fix the roof on top without slipping away but luckily for me the hubby came home just in time, to help me out here!
Well, after hours of baking and icing and decorating, ahhhh, you can see the results here! The village turned out really nice and cute and all my curses about the gliding roofs are forgotten so far!
