Gingerbread Sleigh!

Gingerbread boys, girls and houses go hand and hand with the Christmas holidays but how about a gingerbread  sleigh?


 If you've never seen one, you'd love the one in the front lobby of the Sheraton Boston!

Imagine! It 400 pounds of gingerbread  dough was used on it!

Plus, take a look at the amounts of the other ingredients used!

Congratulations to all who created and worked on this holiday masterpiece.


It definitely put a little bit of magic, as well as sweet spices, in the air.
There was even a glass  container filled with pieces of gingerbread that people could eat! 

That was very nice of the people at the Sheraton Boston.

    Loved the gingerbread sleigh - have seen many gingerbread men and houses but never a sleigh! How enchanting; and pieces to sample; yum! Nice picture of you enjoying Christmas in Boston.

    How beautiful! Some times I am overwhelmed by the creativity of people, and am so thankful that people like me get to enjoy their gifts. They take the gift the Lord gave them and use it for the joy of people like us - it brightens our world. Thank you for sharing Victorian homes and gingerbread sleighs.
