That is a fabulous little house and your roof really caught my eye. Great use for that punch!!! Your recipe sounds yummy. You should bring some of those cookies over to the Teapot Tuesday Cookie Walk. One can never have enough gingerbread cookies at Christmas!

Oh my, this is just the cutest darn thing I've seen in forever. Love the "tiles" and the ribbon. What a wonderful way to package a very special gift, I'm sure the lucky recipient will treasure it. TFS..

Love your shingled roof, and the little gingerbread men in the windows. While I enjoy making the real thing, I must say this looks a lot easier - and much more elegant.
