You guessed it, today my siblings and I built a gingerbread house. We do this every Christmas, it's so fun! We buy this Gingerbread package that has the bread already stuck together in the shape of a house. Then all we have to do is apply the icing and stick the candy on. Sound too easy? Well, you don't know how hard applying icing and sticking candy can be. First, the icing barely sticks on to the house, and it's hard getting the right amount out. Also, it gets really sticky and it sticks everywhere, and is really annoying. Me, being the oldest, gets the job of applying icing. My sister and my brother gets to stick the candy. We have to make sure that we had enough candy to stick everywhere so we wouldn't run out. I caught my brother and sister sneaking candy, but luckily we still had enough. After our hard work, we sat back and admired our 2010 Gingerbread house. It was hard not to reach out and take a piece of the house. Usually, we wait until Christmas day to eat it. So we put the box over it, and just stared at it. After a while, the temptation wore off, and we went to watch TV. Oliver Twist was on, and so we watched that. I remember reading the book in Grade 6, since we had it for novel study, or at least the a easier version of the book. I still remember everything. I still remember that famous line "Please sir, may I have some more?" Oh, how I loved that line.
Only 2 more days until Christmas!
