Cornwall Library hosts gingerbread house contest

Cornwall Library hosts gingerbread house contest
Ruth Epstein

Confectionary construction filled the Cornwall Library Sunday, Dec. 7, for the annual gingerbread house competition. West Cornwall’s covered bridge is a popular theme each year, and this year some entries took the inspiration a step further. Lily Landau-Willis and her mother, Jessica, showed a truck stuck in the covered bridge (above). Unfortunately, that has happened several times. Harper and Emerson Stefanski (below) created a damaged version of the bridge, having witnessed some mishaps that occurred on the span. Their mother, Heidi Stefanski, acknowledged she forgot to make one wall, so the damaged look fit. Each submission to the contest received a unique award.
