3 loaves of hearth bread
2
The bread is familiar territory but the gingerbread men are new. I can't remember the last time I made them, probably when my son was young - which was a good while ago (is he really that old???)
I thought I would get in the mood by sharing this clever idea I found about a week ago. It's a gingerbread house that sits on the side of your mug. It takes a lot to make me squee over a baking idea but I just loved it from the moment I saw it on Not Martha, a new favorite blog I find endlessly fascinating for it's clever ideas and projects. Not Martha says these little beauties can also be made from sugar cookie or short bread dough.

There's also a video from Howcast that tells you how to make them:
I'll have to set aside a day for making these, I have to admit the sugar cookie dough sounds great but after one or two you could stick a fork in me, I would be done. But what a great photo opportunity.

I don't even know what hearth bread is. But you are not going to believe my WV: foodi.
Best wishes for 2011, Paula.
Very cool!!!!
KB, hearth bread is what I call the no-knead bread that you bake in a Dutch oven - any bread that's done in high heat, really. I wish you the best in the New Year, girl, and I hope it's a year of great opportunities for your writing.
PS I sometimes think the wv scans the post/my mind in some way.
D, I like the rabbit idea you mentioned on FeeBee, take a ginger rabbit cookie and cut a slot in it and you're good to go! Happy New Year to you, DS, and 4Buns a' Fun as well.
Cute. Right now, bread is sounding better than cookies, though.
wv: realen, I'm realen from all the holiday foods.
