Now that is is January 1, 2007, it is time to dispose of the gingerbread house. You could eat it, toss it into the garbage, or…

Step 2: Gather ingredients needed for the disposal of said Gingerbread House.
We are using:

  1. fuse aka sparkler
  2. plastic device
  3.   secret ingredients

Step 3: Add secret ingredients and the fuse to the plastic device. You now have a Structural Modification Device

Step 7: Go far far away.

Step 8: Needs no explanation. Sorry for the fuzzy picture. My body reacts to sudden loud, disturbing noises.

    Hi Ginny, thanks for visiting my blog. We did not use mentos and I am not sure what Works is. We did use mentos when we needed an empty bottle for science class. :D]]>
