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.

We watch A Christmas story at least once during the marathon on Christmas. It’s part of our yearly Christmas tradition. I’ll have to show this to my son.

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.

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.
