G is for Gingerbread!

Run, run, as fast as you can. 
You can't catch me, I'm the gingerbread man!

'Tis the season for all things peppermint, cranberry, eggnog and other fantastic festive flavourings.  For me, personally, it's gingerbread that gets my Yuletide taste buds rolling. And what happens when I suddenly become obsessed with trying all things gingerbread? Why, I go on a gingerbread hunt of course!

The first ever gingerbread hunt proved to be a bit of a...disappointment.  The prevalence of gingerbread-y goodies out there, in the edible market, just wasn't very...prevalent.  Needless to say, it didn't go very well.  But ah well, you win some, you lose some.  Moving on to my next ingredient obsession!
