Gingerbread Men

Or, the men of ginger. Weston was "studying" the gingerbread man story at school, so we decided to make gingerbread men with Omi (Ginger) while she stayed with us.

There are two recipes you can use. Click here for the one Omi and the boys made. The recipe that Weston got from school is easy and fun, too:

One spice cake mix

Two eggs

1/3 cup vegetable oil

Mix together and then roll and cut out shapes. Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes. Makes about 2 dozen small cookies or one very large gingerbread man!
They bought white frosting, with sprinkles on the side, and used chocolate chips for eyes and buttons. They helped make the mix, bake the cookies, and finally decorate and EAT them!

Thanks Omi for all the fun!
