The Sweet Candy World of Gingerbread Architecture

gingerbreadhouse

Two to three years ago, I did a gingerbread house post that was more or less suited to mock the tacky houses I’ve seen on the internet. However, since gingerbread houses are all the rage at Christmas time, I plan to do a post that shows all the great houses you’d see since there are plenty from Pinterest and other websites. Anyway, though gingerbread has been around since medieval times and was used to celebrate certain occasions, gingerbread houses didn’t really become all the rage until the early 1800s in Germany after the wake of the Grimm fairy tale “Hansel and Gretel.” And we all know that fairy tale centers on two abandoned children who befall on a gingerbread house that’s actually bait for a witch’s kiddie trap. Yes, it’s disturbing. But food historians claim that people made gingerbread houses before that in Germany. Yet, these suddenly became popular during Christmas and the rest is history. Today many families built gingerbread houses this time of year as a tradition and there are even contests for it. And not all of these structures are houses either. So for your reading pleasure, I give you a treasure trove of gingerbread houses that look good enough but too pretty to eat.

  1. A gingerbread US Capitol contains mints and plenty of frosting.
Sure it might look good on the outside. But the inside may contain a government body with a lower approval rating than pond scum.

3. Someday your prince will come in this gingerbread Snow White’s castle.

This one has a bit of snow on it. And it seems darker than the other Disney princess castles. Maybe it's because the Wicked Queen lives there.

Of course, a Game of Thrones Christmas episode would not be a happy one. Because it would certainly entail violence and nudity that's within HBO standards. Expect a lot of rape and murder.

The Enchanting Winter Wonderland of Ice Sculpture (Second Edition)

harbin-ice-snow-festival

Now we’re on to ice sculpture which many of you are probably more familiar with than snow sculpture. Since ice sculpture is used for a lot of things like winter celebrations and weddings. And the sculptures usually tend to be smaller at any rate and usually last longer than their snow counterparts. But if you want to make a gigantic ice palace, make sure you don’t do it in Florida because it won’t last there at all. But though this is the Christmas season, there are plenty of festivals for snow and ice sculpting in January and February. One of the biggest is in China’s International Snow and Ice festival that’s held in Harbin which show some of the most lovely pieces of winter art from all over the world. And from what you see above, this could be easily seen as the ice equivalent to Las Vegas though I think it’s much more beautiful than that. Still, I had plenty of ice sculpture pics left over after doing a post two years ago. So I plan to do one again. Thus, for your reading pleasure this winter, I give you another treasury of ice sculpture.

  1. Nudes are always a popular subject especially on ice.
Remember, parents, if a nude statue looks like this, it's probably safe for the kids. Since it's probably copied from something you see in an art museum.

The Enchanting Winter Wonderland of Snow Sculpture (Second Edition)

8627380114_deff540df0_z

Moving on to snow sculpture which is another seasonal art form. Yet, unlike building a snowman, building a snow sculpture in my area is almost impossible. Unless the sculpture is quite small. But that’s nothing compared to snow sculptures in other parts of the world where they host such events during the winter months. Because western PA doesn’t have the kind of weather for this. Nevertheless, I did a snow sculpture post two years ago and have plenty of pictures left over from it. Since I found a lot of examples of elaborate snow sculpture. And this was before I started using Pinterest. So for your reading pleasure, I give you another assortment of snow sculptures that will make your snowman seem tame in comparison. Hope you enjoy it on a snowy day like I have at home.

Frosty the Snowman and His Friends (Second Edition)

Snowman_in_Indiana_2014.jpg

Since snow has now come to my area with freezing temperatures, I thought it wouldn’t be more appropriate than to do some second edition posts on snowy creations. After all, though it might be the holiday season, the snow and ice will be with us for awhile. And next month, the US will say goodbye to President Barack Obama and make way for a series of unfortunate events. Besides, winter stuff is kind of expected in December since it’s the Christmas season. Anyway, though it might not be appropriate weather to build a snowman where I live, that’s not to mean they don’t pose a significance during the winter. After all, seeing one at a lawn will put a smile on your face. But as I know from two years ago, there are plenty of people who build snowmen with their own unique spin. And for your reading pleasure today, I give you another treasure trove of Frosty’s friends guaranteed to melt your heart. Because there are some things worth melting for as Olaf would say in Frozen.

  1. Funny how I found this one up a tree.
What's he hiding from? What's he doing up there? And when will he get down?

What’s he hiding from? What’s he doing up there? And when will he get down?

2. This guy seems like a real square when you see him.

Since he's made from snow blocks. But over time he'll get a bit round around the edges before eventually melting into a puddle.

3. This snowman just wants to enjoy a day at the park with the kid.

You have to like how they put the snow kid in the little swing seat. That's so adorable.

4. This woman decided to build a snowman to honor her special friend.

Unfortunately, her special four legged friend doesn't seem too amused by her snow dog creation. Still, it's a work of genius.

5. You can never pile enough snowballs to make a snowman.

This is supposed to be the Cat in the Hat from Dr. Seuss. However, I tend to think otherwise despite the goofy Seuss hat.

6. Seems like this snow sheik has taken to some destructive habit.

Yes, he's taken to hookah all right, which is a kind of tobacco smoking. And yes, it's bad for you. But stereotypes aside, this is hilarious.

7. This snow couple knows how to get the job done.

This may be seen as a cute snow couple. But I like how the snow lady wears her dress and carries a rolling pin. And how the snowman wears a pot for on his head.

8. This military snowman knows how to lock and load.

If this guy wasn't dressed as a soldier, I'd feel very uncomfortable. Because I don't see assault rifles as a civilian weapon at all.

12. The Mexican bandito snowman has come from south of the border.

I know this may offend some people like the "stinkin' badges" part of The Treasure of the Sierra Madre. But c'mon, you can't blame him from getting out of a place with winters above freezing.

35. Of course, some snowmen are kinkier than others.

Given the popularity of Fifty Shades of Grey, I couldn't resist this one. But a BDSM snowman might lead to many calls from parents.

Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree at the Ugly Sweater Party (Third Edition)

snapshot_20161214_9

As we all know, I couldn’t do some Christmas posts without including another edition for ugly holiday sweaters. Unlike some of the other ones, I deliberately delayed this one since inserting a photo of myself in a sweater at this point required my house to be decorated for the Christmas season. And since I did most of the later edition ones just after Thanksgiving, I had to move it at a later date. Now that we’re in the middle of December, so it’s all fine and dandy. Anyway, though the sweater I wear above isn’t necessarily ugly or Christmas specific, it’s in a similar style that you’d associate with ugly Christmas sweaters this time of year. And yes, they’ve exploded in popularity over the years due to their sheer tackiness. So much so that I’ve found ugly Christmas sweaters for many of my themed posts this year as well. Hell, there are holiday sweaters pertaining to stuff I couldn’t even think of. Nevertheless, since I’m aware of the ugly Christmas sweater’s significance, I know that another post isn’t optional in this case. So for your reading pleasure, I give you yet another assortment of more ugly holiday sweaters for the season.

  1. Fans of A Christmas Story will be tickled pink with this Christmas sweater.
This one contains the leg lamp and Ralphie in the infamous pink bunny outfit. And the lampshades are pink.

2. Of course, someone has to be the fruitcake this Christmas.

For the record, to be known as a fruitcake isn't a compliment. Those called this are either known to be so disliked they're passed around, have to be enjoyed with tons of alcohol, or gay. Okay, my apologies to the LGBT community on the last one.

3. Tis the season for rutting reindeer apparently.

To be fair, this is great way to show people why we have certain times a year when we shoot them. Best to wear in front of those with relatives in Mt. Lebanon.

11. On Christmas we’re going to party like it’s Jesus’s birthday.

Though we're not really sure if it is. But setting it on December 25 has more to do with the Jewish idea that prophets died on the day they were conceived.

32. At the Griswolds’, it’s always a fun, old-fashioned family Christmas.

And it's probably one that you'd rather skip out on. Mostly because the Clark Griswold isn't the brightest bulb in the patch. And might even be a bit nuts.

SantaCon Costumes Are Coming to Town (Second Edition)

santacon-crowd

Last year, I did a SantaCon post after the event kicked off since I had to be in Virginia for my sister’s graduation. This year, I vow not to make the same mistake again since I have plenty of costumes left over from that time. As you know, SantaCon is an American tradition in which people from all over the country (as well as the world) gather each year dressed as Christmas characters where they parade and go on a pub crawl. Since its origins in San Francisco, this annual event has become known as a reviled bar crawl with a reputation of  drunken brawling, vandalism, and disorder in New York City and elsewhere. And as a result, there’s been fierce community resistance about the whole thing, especially from parents who really don’t want to explain why Santa has been arrested for drunk and disorderly conduct. Still, thanks to Pinterest, I can have a little fun with this while the events are on. So for your reading pleasure, I give you another treasure trove of SantaCon costumes.

  1. You can’t be a sexy Frosty unless you come in a big puffy skirt.
Well, this isn't as bad as the girly snowman outfits from last year. Yet, she'll probably be shivering in it in some places.

2. You can always shimmer and shine in a silver Santa dress.

Kind of reminds you of something Mariah Carey would wear in a music video. Also seems to contain a lot of sequins.

3. I call this one the stripper Santa girl outfit.

Then again, I really shouldn't make fun of strippers. They have horrible lives. Also, this isn't suitable for cold increment weather.

Love the fancy golden embroidery on it, too. And you thought lady Santa outfits were scantily looking.

5. Have a toast to SantaCon with these Santa pimp cups.

Well, at least they all have cups that are in celebration with the season. Though one seems to be a bit south of the border.

6. To lead your sleigh, SantaCon can’t do without Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.

Now this is a cute costume. However, at these events, it's said that Rudolph's red nose makes him the designated driver.

7. Of course, a doe must always look her best.

Well, with reindeer both sexes have antlers. However, I don't think she's actually dressed as one though. Then again, reindeer often aren't accurately depicted in Christmas media anyway.

8. For a traditional Santa costume, look no further.

26. It’s always lonely to be an Elf on the Shelf.

Though to be fair, the Elf on the Shelf thing is as creepy as hell. Maybe that explains why he does so many naughty things when parents and children aren't looking.

The Holly and Ivy World of Miniature Christmas Gardens

studio-m-gypsy-garden-fairy-garden-fall-thanksgiving-_1

Though the holiday season may be upon us, tis usually not the season for gardening. At least if you live where I do when it’s more likely that your garden will usually have dead stuff that you had to clean out in the fall. I mean winter gardens are usually not much to look at unless you live in the tropics. Then it doesn’t really look right since winter is a time for snow. And snow usually happens at cold temperatures which plants don’t do well in. Anyway, since miniature gardens are usually in containers, this isn’t a problem for people who are into them. In fact, it’s not uncommon for people to decorate their own mini gardens with a holiday touch or make Christmas mini gardens of their own. If you don’t believe me, you can find a lot of places selling miniature garden stuff online. And yes, many of these use fake snow for a more wintry atmosphere. So for your reading pleasure, I give you an assortment of Christmas miniature garden to bring you holiday cheer this season.

  1. The star must always go on top of the tree.

Marvel Comics Christmas United Guardians of the Galaxy

marvel-1983-christmas-card

And so I get to the last Merry Geekmas installment with Marvel Comics. Or as you know, it’s the franchise that brought you the Avengers, Stan Lee, Daredevil, Spider Man, the Fantastic Four, the X-Men, Dr. Strange, Deadpool, Wolverine, and Guardians of the Galaxy. I mean look at the look at the image above and see for yourself. This year was great for Marvel movies like Deadpool, Captain America: Civil War, Doctor Strange, and X-Men: Apocalypse. Of course, like DC Comics, Marvel also had special Christmas issues as well. Because you can’t forget the holidays as a major comic book franchise. And let’s just say, while DC is better known for Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman, Marvel has much more variety in their merchandising. Their movies are also more entertaining though DC beats them in the villain department by  a large margin since their best ones tend to be Loki as well as Magneto and his people. After all, Batman villains tend to be very iconic and scary. Nevertheless, for your reading pleasure, I give you an assortment of ideas and things that will inspire you to have a merry Marvel Christmas Stan Lee could be proud of.

  1. No patriotic Christmas is complete without these Captain America ornaments.
And yes, they mostly consist of his shield. But for any patriotic tree, this is a must have.

DC Comics Presents Christmas: Dawn of Justice

2004-dc-holiday-card-alucardbarnivous

Of course, I couldn’t do themed Merry Geekmas posts without including the comic book superhero franchises of DC and Marvel. After all, comic superheroes make crucial part of the nerd landscape since they’re beloved by generations as well as lead casts of major blockbuster movies. Not to mention, so many people dress as them for Comic Con. This year for the DC Comics we has Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad. Both were major blockbuster hits. Nevertheless, like other franchises, comic book superheroes also have their own branding for the holidays. For instance, many of them have their own holiday special issue. And this has gone on for decades even before they started making movies featuring superheroes. With DC Comics, you’ll probably had Batman or Superman saving Santa or something like that. Anyway, Christmas is a big time of year for the comic books for obvious reasons. So it should surprise that many fans make a themed Christmas with their favorite superheroes. So for your reading pleasure, I give you an assortment of things related to a DC Comics Christmas.

  1. Have a Gotham Christmas with these Batman baubles.
Consists of ornaments pertaining to Batman, the Joker, and Harley Quinn. So fans would enjoy them.

For the Lovers, Dreamers, and Me and a Very Merry Muppet Christmas to You

movie-mcc-promo-scrooge-and-company

Like Disney, the Muppets have always been in the business of Christmas since they became popular. In fact, they’ve had Christmas specials and movies like the famous Muppet Christmas Carol from the 1990s. And I have it to open this post since it’s considered one of the best Muppet Christmas films. Of course, I have to give Sir Michael Caine’s performance as Ebenezer Scrooge credit, too. I mean the guy is a gifted actor and it takes a lot of effort to be mean to these loveable Hensonian creations. Oh, and Sesame Street had a good Christmas special that was based on the story Christmas Every Day and why such a concept is a very bad idea. Nevertheless, this year the Muppets opened the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade while Sesame Street performed as always. Still, over the years, there’s a lot of Muppet Christmas stuff and that’s where I come in. So for your reading pleasure, I present to you a very Muppet Christmas part of this Merry Geekmas scheme. Believe me, there are huge Muppet fans out there and many of them aren’t children. And there are a lot of Sesame Street fans who aren’t young children. Of course, both the Muppets and Sesame Street tend to parody a lot of adult stuff which explains why they’re so popular.

  1. There’s nothing that says Merry Christmas like this Sesame Street tree.
This is a cute Christmas tree. Love how they used letters and numbers. Love it.
