Gingerbread

Deprived!

The moment she stepped home, her itchy fingers longed to touch butter, flour, sugar and sweets! Yes, she must bake lest she loses the skill !

Sara is all out to show her baking skills again! This time she became even more adventurous... create the Gingerbread House. So it's shopping for sweets, sweets and sweets...RM100.00's worth for inedible gingerbread.

But she's so at home with those sweets.

Sara tells me she need to pour out her feelings for her love; manifested in an item appropriate for the season.

Sister Esther chipped in her creative help too.



The unsung hero of course is none other than Allie who is never tired of cleaning their mess. Yes she loves to see them at work ; not even a sound of complaint. Never mind about the mess as long as they are home to entertain her.

Sugary gingerbread for a special touch to the house. Now it sits on the dining table to be savoured in by friends and loved ones. A first attempt at the delight of dad. He casually asked if it was my idea. NO...too much mess but as it is; I must learn to be more cooperative. I must take in all the mess with patience, admiration and give them room to express themselves. So, I have kept a smile and my mouth shut.

But this gingerbread house is indeed pretty and will be etched in the recesses of my memory.

Gingerbread Delight!
