Home for the Little Wanderers Gingerbread Decorating Party at Showcase Legacy Place

Do you want to build a snowman?

This team at the Home for the Little Wanderers annual Gingerbread Decorating Party certainly did! They even built a beautiful Frozen themed house to go with their Olaf snowman. The annual event has grown tremendously over the past few years. I was honored to take part as a Local Personality, and got to decorate once again at the Coldwell Banker table! The event is the kick off for The Home’s annual Big Wishes Gift Drive that helps make children’s holiday dreams come true.

Ran into Kelly Breslow, wife of Red Sox pitcher Craig Breslow, who spearheaded another table .

ours didn’t quite look as elaborate as this Minions house with built in LED screen….

My son was mesmerized by it… I can see why.

Here we are concentrating and somehow not consuming every decoration in front of us. Our theme was decidedly “Dentist’s Delight”, coined by table host, Davenport of Coldwell Banker. ok…maybe a few malted milk balls didn’t make it onto the house…

and this young decorator was taking notes from Miss Massachusetts as she licked her frosting fingers!

this young table host was intent on putting on just the right marshmallow!

our Wink and Nod chef had such a steady hand at frosting our roof. Mine would have looked exactly like that.

Jasper White from Summer Shack came by too, luckily he didn’t use any live lobster shells on his house. I forgot to tell him that my kids are obsessed with his mac and cheese.

We even had some fabulous writers in the house, Jonathan Sorroff, showed us some unique decorating skills using swedish fish to fashion flowers. Mrs. Julie Gordon, co-chair of the event managed to stay fabulous and unfettered by the sugar and candies.
