Gingerbread Construction Christmas Notebook

The decorations are coming along. The roof is another matter. An unfinished gingerbread house stands beside scaffolding above “Completion expected by Easter.” A Christmas construction-delay joke for bakers, builders and anyone with an optimistic project deadline. The pictured spiral notebook has a 6.5 × 8.75-inch front cover with the complete illustration inset from the binding and trim. The design is on the cover; no specialised holiday-planning pages or particular interior layout are promised. Printed fictional illustration only, not edible gingerbread, a recipe or a building plan.
