The Gingerbread Tradition

Ever since I was a child my mother has been baking gingerbread houses.  It started as a fun way that my sister’s and I could give gifts out to fellow elementary school classmates and for some reason it has had a lot of staying power in my family.

Maybe it’s because we’ve had a lot of the same friends since we were that young, or maybe it’s because we generally like giving them out.  Nevertheless, I’m a grown adult now, and I still find joy in gifting these to my co-workers.

I can honestly say that this is one of the absolute coolest things my mom does for us, and it always makes me feel like we are part of a tight-knit family.

Here’s to you mom, we love you.
