GINGERBREAD

1c honey                    1c breadcrumbs
1t ginger                   1/4t pepper (I used the pinch method)
1/4t saunders (sandlewood)      1T sugar
30-40 whole cloves or 5t sugar and a pinch of powdered cloves

Bring honey to a boil, simmer two or three minutes.
Stir in breadcrumbs with a spatula until uniformly mixed.  
Remove from heat, stir in ginger, pepper and saunders.  
When it is cool enough to handle, knead it to get spices thoroughly mixed.  
Put it in a box (square plastic container with a lid),
Squish it flat and thin (it REALLY says squish), 
Sprinkle with sugar and put cloves ornamentally around the edge.  
Leave it to let clove flavor sink in;
