Ellen and I made our semi-regular trip to Trader Joe's and we came across this cute little gingerbread man kit. For $4, it seemed like a pretty good (and delicious!) time filler for a day at home.
We had a morning full of errands and Ells kept asking and asking and asking when she could decorate it. Our last stop was the grocery store, so I bribed her with picking out one kind of candy to add to her decorations and she agreed to be patient.
Happy girl ...

Just one little taste before we get started ...


Oh, and a few more. "It's hair, Mom."

And then to the decorating. The kit came with a little bag of icing, a few M&M type candies and some sprinkles. Ellen chose the little pastel mint meltaways at the store as her decoration, which was fortunate/unfortunate because I LOVE those things.

One for me, one for the gingerbread man ...

She appears to be in heaven. Puhleeze don't ask for cut-out cookies from me!
I think distaff is right. If you can get this big cookie for $4 and save her from having to mess up her kitchen...it is worth it!
I want one!!!
