As you can imagine, we at the Town Office have been in quite a tizzy over the disappearance of five gingerbread persons last weekend. (In case you missed it, that story can be found here.) During Chief Read’s questioning of Mr. John Dough (the one gingerbread man that did not get away), some important information is being received on the possible whereabouts of his companions. It seems that Mr. Dough prefers to speak in riddles so we’re hoping some bright boys and girls out there may be able to help us decipher these clues and find our escapees. The first clue he gave is as follows…
I’m sweet on Ginger.
You’ll soon see why.
She really is a cutie pie.
Despite her size (just a quarter pound),
she really is the biggest clown.
It’s cold out there!
Which leads me to worry…
She could end up in a flurry!
So drive thru the town, hurry, please!
Before my dear begins to freeze!
There are fourteen businesses in the decorating contest where our five escaped gingerbread may be found. (Not every business will have one.) While you search for them, be sure to pick out your favorite decorations and vote here on the Buzz through December 14th. We’ve already had over 300 votes, so make sure your voice is heard!
Search the decorations of businesses participating in our contest and see if you can find the gingerbread people. But don’t touch them! They may try to run away before we can come catch them. Just let the shop worker know you spotted an escaped gingerbread, and they will let us know. They might even have a treat for you for helping us out!
