With the typical Chicago winter in full effect, I find myself stuck inside on most nights. Since my Wii is out of commission and I wasn’t feeling Rock Band last night, we decided to try our hands at gingerbread house creation.
Thirty minutes into the building process, one thing was painfully clear: the packaged candy in these gingerbread kits are certainly not 8-bit design friendly. Think about that the next time you attempt to build a character out of Spree, heart-shaped gumdrops, gumballs, and tiny dotted candy that I am still trying to decipher.
Now jump, jump, jump over the break for more photos.
For the record, the gingerbread doesn’t taste that great, but the gumdrops are fabulous.
