"Mmmm... Thank you Rachel Ray. I don't think I could have gotten past tonight without some of your fab late night style bacon. I had some trouble with getting it out of the package so maybe you should explain how to do that too.

"The cookies were very tasty and I loved spinning them up like a swirl and seeing them when the came out was delightful. I just don't think that the lolipop part of it worked out to well.

"I think that the dough is great. I had my own pan, so I didn't need the templates that weren't there. I had to make three batches of it before I could fill the pans, and I wonder how big they thought gingerbread houses should be. Since I didn't use the templates, I don't know. They should probably make the recipie larger, but it is fine the way it is I guess. It tastes great so I used the extra to make some cookies. (To ice the cookies I found a really great recipie on a different website, that uses 1 1/2 c. powdered sugar, 4 to 5 tsp. milk, 1 or 2 drops vanilla, and 1 tbsp. butter, softened. It's really good and goes great with the ginger bread.) YUM!
I havn't decorated it yet, but it looks very good even without. I can't wait until it's finished and we can eat it for the holidays!!
