I do like theme baking, and Christmas is always a good excuse. I am not the biggest fan of ginger bread but I have found a gingerbread recipe that I really like because the ginger is not overpowering, you can taste all of the other added spices and what I like about it the most is that there is the sweetness of honey in there as well. So now whenever it's getting close to Christmas I've started making ginger bread, and the added bonus with Christmas is that there are some really neat cookie cutters.
Last year for our next door neighbours I made these Christmas cookies of gingerbread men, Christmas trees, stars and candy canes. Also for my 'work' (not that it's really work cause I'm a postgrad student) Christmas party I made a Christmas tree out of ginger bread. So as much as I like the gingerbread recipe that I found I am kinda glad that Christmas only comes once a year.
