Gingerbread gents

Over the weekend we tried building on the Winter festivities by hosting a mini Christmas party. Since I only have a few friends remaining in MA, I had both of them for dinner (which I botched, as usual), then we spent the rest of the evening baking and decorating gingerbread guys. Apparently there were gingerbread women in there somewhere--they were hard to identify because they were not wearing skirts, like good women should ;o)

Concentrating!
Patty's people were quite impressive. Bert and Ernie?
Seth and... St. John the Baptist??? Why???
Bo's modern art-inspired (Mondrian, perhaps?) guy in one hand and a snowman in the other.
Piet Mondrian, Composition II in Red, Blue, and Yellow, 1930. It is uncanny!!!

I couldn't get the self-timer to work...
Watch out, Seth--these are my new men!
Seth's and my complete gingerbread civilization
