Here it is, a definitively Australian gingerbread house, inspired by Megan, baked by me and decorated by my kids - with a little help from me and my Mum (ok, I confess, the kids got bored and Mum and I finished the job, the lolly encrusted sides are totally Grandma's fault).
With lots of plum trees
A sheep or two,
A sheep or two,
a kangaroo
A clothesline out the back
Verandah out the front
And an old rocking chair
There's an outdoor dunny and a water tank (though it's a little on the small side).
We've even left the front door open for Santa, can't get much more Aussie than that!

Fantastic job!
Now I'm humming along.
I just have a kitset from IKEA and I still haven't put it together. Mind you I have had a tummy bug and now a cold since we arrived in Auckland.
Man, that's the best gingerbread house ever.
Though I had the song lyrics all wrong until I realised I've been brainwashed by Bourke's Backyard!!
That's disgusting.
I can't even manage more than one batch of shortbread.
Utterly disgusting.
And now I'm singing that song....
