<p>I&#8217;ll save you a piece.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7032/6395207533_aff4c76184.jpg"></p>
<p>Beautiful Parkdale sunset.</p>

<p>See how happy I am? Remember that next time gingerjerkbread house asses.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6100/6395208177_edfce1a8fc.jpg"></p>
<p>A jar fell out of the cupboard and smashed, I was busy vacuuming and thus not being a control freak so no icing foundation was laid but also we decided to decorate first and assemble later.</p>

<p>I like my Dr.Seuss swirly sparkles because I am a social reject.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7149/6395233709_4fdbd3d1e7.jpg"></p>
<p><img src="https://raymitheminx.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" class="wp-smiley" /> I did what I could. I was the only one taking it seriously. AS USUAL. I take sparkles and icing very seriously. Too seriously maybe? </p>
<p><img src="http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6240/6395206333_0876f59fb9.jpg"></p>
<p>Light eggnog anyone? Greyhound? Ever since I learned that geniuses drink/consume grapefruit I drink that stuff like cray-zay. Apparently it makes you sharp, and It&#8217;s true cos it tastes intense and you have to be a man to be able to take it, much like Brio, an acquired taste for sure as you&#8217;re swallowing it you are like why is this happening, what is this taste?</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7016/6395224915_39c17f8d2d.jpg"></p>
<p>Oh well, fresh gingerbread icing is jealicious.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7034/6395216807_c718827ff6.jpg"></p>
<p>I was so proud to display this. Where we failed was the icing foundation which we (Bunny) did not lay. It&#8217;s ok, we had fun and now it looks like a Ke$ha disaster which was the goal anyway.  See how I shaved that yellow/caramel to size? I am the best.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7004/6395212875_6abcd37fe9.jpg"></p>
<p>That&#8217;s my boy face, I look like my teenager dad. YAY! Hi Bunny! Everyone is in love with her, all my dopey internet guy friends make dumb comments every time a new/diff girl is on my blog it&#8217;s funny how stupid they are I love it. Thanks internet for bringing us altogether. Though I think it&#8217;s supposed to be all together, altogether now is from that one part in the Beatles song altogether now? OMG! STOP RAMBLING!</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7157/6395206755_29f4b13172_z.jpg"></p>
<p>Allen&#8217;s leftovers. I am a genius.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7001/6395207179_8e98c45317.jpg"></p>
<p>Blog treats! Kind of disgusting but not when the booze magic starts to work.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7009/6395208637_3c64ca78c4.jpg"></p>
<p>First attempt. I wanted to do whip-its but we didn&#8217;t, I have never done whip-its before I think 28 is a good age to start, right? Hello? See that crack? First mistake, how did that happen again? Luckily I intelligently chose brown icing instead of hot purple and pink to be more aesthetically matchy. I got to flex my extensive caulk knowledge too. </p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7171/6395209097_1796884f14.jpg"></p>
<p>But how will we get sparkles on it if it&#8217;s put together, and it&#8217;ll collapse if we hold it on its side so we all chose two walls or a roof piece and went to town. I made greyhounds and forgot about dinner which is probably another factor in gingerbread house failure, drinking on the job on an empty stomach while vacuuming during the almighty important instructions part. Which are in Swedish probably and Bunny got icing all over cos she was testing out the ease of use or whatever of the tubes. When we tired of our project I made us green bean poutine.</p>

<p>Very nice to look at and design geek groupie fetish approved.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6102/6395210161_ae28f283da.jpg"></p>
<p>Look at Bunny&#8217;s little finger heart tattoo, so cute.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7170/6395210951_6345f8e25d.jpg"></p>
<p>Hot nails too. Haha see the dog?</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7173/6395211441_6930913228.jpg"></p>
<p>Oh don&#8217;t worry I criticized the hell out of that candy corn catastrophe over there. We had to cover up someone&#8217;s swastika too.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7171/6395211885_1bb0131aec.jpg"></p>
<p>I ate that pink heart when it all went to shit. It was delicious and got me pumped for New Moon HI DO YOU LIKE THE NEW DIRECTION OF MY BLOG NOW TEENAGER FRIENDLY? Or am I a mommy blogger now that I have crafts and activities again? They can relate to me cos everything seen here is some dumb thing they&#8217;d do with their kid? Except with less booze.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6212/6395212341_9d4a3e01c0.jpg"></p>
<p>Like I said my phone has a been a pill. SUGH-IGH.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7019/6395213949_b25c281eca_z.jpg"></p>
<p>Pfft. Bunny has ones on her phone she&#8217;ll send later. Not like I am sitting here waiting on them or anything, I am trying to figure out the course of my evening, from outfit to how I am going to seamlessly hook up with the girls at the Old Mill with no luggage or who knows where they&#8217;ll be and I have band practise tomorrow at noon and if I know my mom she&#8217;ll be rocking a heavy champagne hangover about then and could give two fucks about my needing to be back downtown stat. I&#8217;ll tell Lois, she&#8217;ll make it happen. If they want to party with me they have to acquiesce to my needs. There now I am way less stressed out haha thank you for helping me sort myself out there. We&#8217;ll worry about outfit later.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6036/6395214521_fbc76a915f_b.jpg"></p>
<p>I was SO PROUD of my big globby blue window facade and my candy corn spikes? Birds can just legit fuck off my roof AND DIE.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7146/6395215619_b5fa66d181_b.jpg"></p>
<p>The yellow sparkles on white icing looked like piss snow and had this all gone right I&#8217;d have made a trail of piss snow surrounding the house. This is LITERALLY a broken gingerbread house of dreams. HO HO HO!</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7015/6395216243_3a5f0b73cf_z.jpg"></p>
<p>I just love looking at this, if it makes me a simpleton then so be it.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7008/6395217341_27a052531c_z.jpg"></p>
<p>Then my roof piece got better. Teacher did a Van Gogh on his which to me looked like dog shit but whatever (I am still angry at him for being a stick in the mud last night during this).</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7016/6395218053_27dabae67b_b.jpg"></p>
<p>Sparkles hurt when they are dug deep in to your skin as a head&#8217;s up when you press your house together haha.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7160/6395218705_d2128b74c0_z.jpg"></p>
<p>See his painting down there? Not horrible but not, not awful either. Who do you think made the swastika in the first place? (to be fair he&#8217;s a history teacher in the middle of WWII but like I can blog that?)</p>
<p><img src="http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6038/6395219459_792444fe08_z.jpg"></p>
<p>Remember that scene in xmas vacation where the two mother in laws are decorating the gingerbread house one is smoking and the old men are snoring? That was us. It was funny. Being a &#8220;grown-up&#8221; is a joke.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6225/6395219765_deb9891113_z.jpg"></p>
<p>No face Raymeh, not bad! This is casual Raymi HAah.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7171/6395221317_19743e4170_b.jpg"></p>
<p>BECAUSE THIS WAS GOING ON! I would have put more sparkles on those dots, TEACHER.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7146/6395221847_fb0403cc19.jpg"></p>
<p>I thought taking it to the living room would make for a better picture plus Bunny&#8217;s foot?</p>
<p><img src="http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6041/6395222191_946c4aec8a_b.jpg"></p>
<p>And a very indie Christmas to you too.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7153/6395223423_69c4400aa7_b.jpg"></p>
<p>Well I am glad I at least capture this before it was bulldozed.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7007/6395223939_a37857cf50.jpg"></p>
<p>What it looked like after collapse AFTER I overturned the decorated sides, ugh.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7152/6395224433_d53343dbd5_z.jpg"></p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7169/6395228459_d910585fd7.jpg"></p>
<p><img src="https://raymitheminx.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" class="wp-smiley" /></p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7174/6395225857_c455228fae_b.jpg"></p>
<p>And now it looks like this Flinstones My Little Pony house.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7001/6395227927_5304d32349_z.jpg"></p>
<p>The roof is now a wall. I feel like a cupcake now.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7162/6395228889_94cc3266f9_z.jpg"></p>
<p>Are you ready to sign the rental agreement? Hey it looks like Adventurehouse!</p>
<p><img src="http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6092/6395229449_a43f332160_z.jpg"></p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7145/6395229811_330410343e.jpg"></p>
<p>And this morning, still hideous. </p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7169/6395230799_3dedd73d14.jpg"></p>
<p>But I kind of love it.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7169/6395231261_4c4d218a9b.jpg"></p>
<p>The pink caramel log thing is covering up that inappropriate thing Teacher drew.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7009/6395232617_fb45ae8444.jpg"></p>
<p>Are your eyes killing yet?</p>
<p><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7150/6395235075_8712770d11_z.jpg"></p>
<p>Come by any time we&#8217;d love to have you.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6033/6395446667_a5c51a61ac_z.jpg"></p>
<p>Time to clean up my act (bath time).</p>
