liberal with the frosting |
Yesterday, Quinn and I took part in Lark Street's Winter Wonderlark activities at the
Upstate Artists' Guild's Gingerbread Funhouse. For a (small) recommended donation of $5, we were provided with a gingerbread house and an incredible array of goodies with which to
eat while we sat around decorate it. You parents out there know what a pain in the arse it would be to do this at home - lots of candy, lots of unnaturally colored frosting, lots of mess. However, in a setting like this, decorating our gingerbread was all the fun I had ever imagined it to be! Quinn had a blast squeezing crazy amounts of frosting "glue" on to his property and sticking gumdrops, skittles, m&m's, marshmallows, pretzels and candy canes all over, liberally sampling treats along the way. I really hope this is an annual event, because we will definitely be back next year.
And - if you're looking for something festive to do today, Sunday 12/12, head down there later in the afternoon for a holiday collage card making workshop. Fun.
