A Gingerbread House for Everyone

posted by on December 22 at 11:48 AM

chipmunk.jpgIn 1958, Ross Bagdasarian sped up the playback on his voice and created Alvin and the Chipmunks. Bagdad-asarian, I mean, Bagdasarian did all the original voices himself. His stage name was David Seville. “Christmas Don’t Be Late” was a number one hit, selling 4.5 million copies.

Seattle’s own 4 year-old Jelani made a gingerbread house this year. She wanted the Chipmunks to be the song for the footage. The gingerbread house stood for about 90 seconds before it caved in. We were then instructed by Jelani to eat it, which we did. She said, “I made a gingerbread house, for everyone.” I think that’s a nice message. A gingerbread house for everyone. Here it is for you now:

we had the exact same gingerbread-house-kit for my friend's daughter. and on monday night when we tried to put it together, our house met the same fate. roof slide and then the side walls went. we decided to make it a shanty/lean-to gingerbread shack.

you think they'd do a bit more qa testing before they went around breaking children's heart with a pos gingerbread shack.

fortunately, my friend's daughter, much like jelani, took it all in stride and didn't seem very bothered by a gingerbread collapse.

I have always wanted to eat a Gingerbread house and never had the chance to.

I have always wanted to have that 'roof bite.'

I love Jelani.
