One might think that this would be a relatively easy process. However in Mexico a builder has to think about the fact that humidity can crumble walls or even that ants could carry it away! I do not want any ants thinking my gingerbread house is a party palace. I want us free to eat it ourselves dust and all after Christmas!
Here is my plan:
- Bake the gingerbread well to ensure strong walls. Of course avoiding any burnt color.
- Cover the preparation area with disposable plastic to avoid leaving any sugar remnants.
- Build the house on a base that then gets set in a pan of water to deter ants. Maybe we should make the house a gingerbread castle and that is the moat!
- And vacuum the kids after assembly.
That should work! And you thought living in the tropics was the easy life!
Okay so maybe it is. See you at the beach. Feliz Navidad!
Enjoy the Adventure! Suzanne
