This year I was lucky enough to go back to Asheville's Grove Park Inn and their gingerbread house competition. Here are a couple of the houses for you, Joanne, I know you love them.
This one was the grand champion, displayed behind glass. The shadow is probably me taking the picture.
In the lobby was a faux gingerbread house, where they sold this Oskar Blues Ol' Snap Fireplace Ale. Among other things. Very luscious small pour, with alcohol content around 9%.
We found unoccupied rocking chairs around one of the huge fireplaces to sit and enjoy it. Lovely.
It was such a nice day, weather-wise, holding off turning colder until the next day. Wonderful afternoon. Thanks, Sarah and Winnie.

You know me so well.
I have never made one from cookies and frosting.
But the wood, paint and glue one is still really wonderful
Perhaps I should make another---Santa's Workshop.
So lovely!
