"Fresh out of the pan, "Sweet Gingerbread Man!"
Whenever I hear this song, done by The Mike Curb Congregation in 1970, it brings out my Southern roots! I can just picture a Gingerbread Man popping out of a Southern frying pan, ready to greet all.
The above image popped into my head, recently, so I just had to write about it. I loved the song but was not so keen on gingerbread. Oh, I enjoyed it, usually at Christmas time, but my unusual sensitivity made me feel guilty about eating anything resembling a human or an animal. Chocolate bunnies and yellow marshmallows chicks at Easter? Forget it!!!!!!!!!!! And a chocolate cross???????? Blasphemy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Let's all enjoy the song, if I can find it!!!!!!!!!!!! Here it is, girls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fresh out of the pan, darlings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’m with you on gingerbread.
Ginger ANYTHING really. Bleh.
We would get so mad when folks would give out those packets of gingersnaps at halloween.
A Spicy cookie??
Just seemed Wrong.
Victoria, I was always fascinated by candy houses. But the bulk of them are made out of gingerbread, so I wouldn't go nibbling, like Hansel and Gretel.
