The Kid and I actually started the tradition of making gingerbread men for Santa. Not very original but it was something that he and I could do together. Plus, Santa realllllyyyyy likes Gingerbread men. 🙂
A couple of years ago we were on a time crunch and couldn’t take the time required to make our gingerbread men. So I quickly threw together a gingerbread cake and VIOLA! A new tradition and a new favorite was born. I found that I actually love the gingerbread cake much more than the gingerbread men.
Now, I must go and eat a slice of cake. Later!
