We shared many a giggle :) I've gotten so many compliments and gingerbread converts from these, thanks for sharing this and giving me good memories with my sister.

I'm just curious what you use, so there's no rush! It sounds like the usual for gingerbread is unsulphered, and it’s a matter of how strong one likes ones molasses.

And, like you -- AGAIN -- was SOO glad that I did because they are now a favorite of mine, as well! (Yours look 1,000 times prettier than mine did, though! That icing job you did is nothing short of pure art.) How funny it is to absolutely adore something as an adult that you hated as a child and vowed never to consume again. So thankful our palates change as we get older, aren't you?? Most of my favorite foods I would never have even ENTERTAINED the idea trying it. Annie,
