It's a holiday tradition around our house. The wife and kids come home from the store with a wonderful holiday creation. It's a gingerbread house kit. A make it yourself in the privacy of your own home kit for creating a domicile of gingerbread. The good news about the kit is most of the hard part is done.

Here's one final Mother's Day funny. This video makes me laugh every time I watch it.

This is a special recipe to me because it has been in my family for decades. My mom has made it ever since I was a child and her mom (my Oma) made it for her when she was a child.

There are a couple of reasons why I still enjoy going home to my parent's house. Delicious, home cooked meals; spending time with my family; and playing with my two sweet, little angels.
