Gingerbread Houses to Beautify Your Winter Season Decorations

The holiday season is a period of festivity and bonding for a lot of families, and a period when tradition takes center stage in our lives. Holiday culture and rituals give families a sense of continuity, transferring memories from one generation to the next. One of the most important traditions for nearly all families throughout the holidays involves dusting off the decorations and swathing the house in seasonal dress. Of course, living in today's world can, now and again, make it challenging to spend as much time on these activities as we might prefer, with shopping, cooking, and travel to be managed, and career responsibilities that leave fewer and fewer pockets of time for extra tasks each year.

Gingerbread houses are a quintessential icon of the holiday time of year. The taste and aroma of the spices brings back memories of inviting homes full of friends and family members, and halls decked with holiday colors. Gingerbread houses make for charming centerpieces for a winter dinner table, or for gathering around in the family room as gifts are exchanged. But as beautiful and celebratory as gingerbread houses are, they can be tricky to construct, and several families basically don't have the time, or patience, during the holidays to deal with sticky royal icing plus the flaky walls, let alone the chaos in the kitchen after that!
