Houston’s Market Square was the site of the 2nd Annual Gingerbread House-building competition this past weekend.
The Gingerbread Build-off was sponsored by Architecture Center Houston, along with Buffalo Bayou Partnership, C2 Creative, and Houston Downtown Management District.
I had thought that it might be fun to attend, but we had other things to do. From the pictures I saw, I didn’t miss much.
There were some interesting Gingerbread churches
There were Gingerbread Castles
And even a Gummy Candy breathing Dragon
But the Houses just weren’t that impressive
Certainly nothing to pull Hansel and Gretel in out of the forest.
Overall, it looks like all the participants had a good time, but I’m not all that sorry we missed it. Do sour grapes and gingerbread go together?
You still have a chance to see the winners of the competition this week at Architecture Center Houston, located at 315 Capitol, Suite 120. The gallery hours are Monday through Thursday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Friday 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Parking is available at the Hobby Center Parking Garage.
