Merry Christmas!

As a Christmas food statement, I will leave you with a recent video by emmymadeinjapan, which shows Emmy making a gingerbread house entirely covered, and decorated, in meat and animal products.  (Why yes, those are pieces of salami masquerading as shingles.  And a SPAM door.  And the yellow stuff is Easy Cheese.)

Not safe for vegans.  Or people who like their gingerbread houses to be pretty.  Or who have sensitive stomachs.  But it's a hoot otherwise!  (Even more of a hoot if you don't have to eat any of the "gingermeat" house afterwards.)

Just in case you are screaming for "brain bleach!" right about now, here's a link to a post by Jen of the Cake Wrecks blog, which features pictures of lovely, conventional gingerbread houses.  Gingerbread houses that most of us would enjoy admiring, and would be willing to eat after admiring them.  For something in-between the meat house and pretty gingerbread houses, here's a slideshow from GoodHousekeeping.com with pictures of 42 different gingerbread houses, ranging from a pretzel log cabin to a modern house with a palm tree.

Merry Christmas, everyone!
