A tour of my gingerbread lion habitat

That last post was more of a reference for me so that when I do another gingerbread project, probably next year, I’ll remember what recipes I used and a few tips on what worked. Now, I want to give just a quick tour of my final gingerbread lion habitat – heavy on images, light on text.

And I made a few visitors to see the cute cubs:

Finally, I wanted to spruce up the final entry, so I added a few decorative touches:
