Tats and Tenements

Out here in Hooterville, there’s a fine line between class and trash.

We like to ride the fence.

I let my daughter go to school with tattoos. Tats she bought for 50 cents at the bowling alley and insists that they are REAL.

Then to lure her back from the trashy side, we make a gingerbread house.

.

A TENEMENT GINGERBREAD HOUSE!

All it needs is a mailbox to collect the government check at the first of the month.

Keeping it real, Kentucky style…that’s how we roll.

    Well at least you’ve got it all covered. Must admit-I’ve let my daughters go to school with tattoos too.

    Renee,
    It’s a tenement ’cause all the other fab bloggers have these elaborate gingerbread houses they make from scratch.
    Ours is a little shabby (notice the toothpicks to hold up the gumdrops) and came straight from Wally World. LOL!

    You need some plastic covering the windows on that gingerbread house. I would also suggest a bag of trash and a barbie sofa on the porch.

    Wait, you have to get a Hotwheels car, pull off all the tires, and put it up on little marshmallow blocks! For extra verity, sand the paint off so it looks like it’s covered in Bondo!
