I was going to tear down my modest old split level gingerbread house and build this monstrosity in its place but I couldn’t get the financing.
Williams-Sonoma is striking just the wrong chord this holiday season by offering an eatable metaphor for the financial crisis. I’m going to let mine sit vacant for a few months then I’ll burn it down.
The gingerbread McMansion retails for $250 which I would say is a bit steep for baked good. I think we can be pretty confident that this item will be a recognizable artifact of the antebellum period just as glittery winged rollerskates might symbolize the excesses of the disco era.
I hereby add the Williams-Sonoma Gingerbread McMansion to my “Oracles of the Apocalypse” collection.
