Classic Offbeat Homes: “You’ll shoot your eye out!” (plus gingerbread!)

Talk about an action packed title, huh.

A year ago Offbeat Homes featured the fully restored version of the house where it all went down; crazy lamps, decoders, and of course the infamous Red Ryder BB Gun.

The Christmas Story is a slice of holiday cheer in my mind so this post deserves a second Christmas look. Click on the picture of the house to read the full classic post.

Your weekend challenge activity:

Unless you’re on the road to grandmas house, you still have time to gather the family and make some amazing gingerbread homes. Remember the gingerbread house post? I hope so; it was just back in October. I really liked that post — it was way fun. It’s time to take a look back at this post and see how inspired you can be at home with your own gingerbread.

Remember this one:

See The World’s Best Offbeat Gingerbread Homes for the full story and all the super edible homes.

Lastly:

The month is winding down but that doesn’t mean you still can’t win the December’s Reader Appreciation Contest. Give it a go. In fact you can get a big jump with; 15 Contest Bonus Points.

    Sick on the couch today, and the only thing that has made it bearable is movies — and I had forgotten how great A Christmas Story is.

  7. I saw that you were sick on Twitter — sorry that you’re feeling bad right in the swing of the season. Movies do help when you’re sick and from the looks of this, a little blog surfing never hurt either ;)

    Feel better soon and thanks for coming by.
