a gingerbread house died today

Alice and Nico made a gingerbread house.. it was a wonderful thing, even more wonderful when they figured out you could eat the candy. But what is the purpose of a gingerbread house... we build it and let it sit and it gets hard and then we throw it away. Today i finally broke down and threw out the house. Pretty much every year we make one and put it out for display and then toss it after it gets hard lol. It if fun to make and bond while we make the house but alice doesn't really eat candy.. she did however lick a few choice pieces before she put them on the house lol. So next year i will still buy a gingerbread house make it and nibble on the candy before it gets hard and then set it out on the table and contemplate this whole thought again.
