stoned by ~owensprayer
Per the suggester: "Who knew drugs could
be so...beautiful? With its beautiful lyrical

Makeshift GingerbreadThe makeshift gingerbread house sat on the table. Tracie had cobbled it together out of graham crackers and a wide variety of candy pieces. Spree pieces decorated the front, while candy corn adorned the roof. Gum drops, a necessity for a gingerbread house, had been placed on the top and around the house; she had stuck pieces of candy cane on the sides of the house.
