SC - structural gingerbread

[Christi Rigby]

I just did our fall event, and I made this gingerbread also.  I waited til
the last minute to dry the bread, we ended up laying all the slices of
bread out in the kitchen and they dried overnight, like maybe 12 hours and
it made a wonderful gingerbread, although I would make sure I did  the
bread crumbs in a food processor or blender and that they weren't any lumps
in the bread crumbs, they really need to be finely ground.
