<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/20986/20121130/heard-up-north-family-remembers-10-years-of-gingerbread</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Nov 30, 2012) Traditional Arts in Upstate New York opens its 10th annual Gingerbread Contest and Exhibit Saturday in Canton. The Pierce family of Heuvelton will have an entry, just like every other year the contest has been around.  Julie Grant met recently with Carolyn Pierce and a handful of her seven children, who range in age from seven to 20. Reggie, the oldest, is now in college. He was 10 the first year they entered. That year they attempted a gingerbread replica of their church in Heuvelton. In the years that have followed, they&apos;ve made the Remington Tavern, the Quiltmaker&apos;s gift castle, and their own barn. They&apos;ve even won the TAUNY contest a few times.  Mother Carolyn Pierce says it was Aunt Eloise, also known as Faye White, who first encouraged them to get into gingerbread making.

<title>Time to think gingerbread</title>
<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/20812/20121106/time-to-think-gingerbread</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Nov 6, 2012) Traditional Arts in Upstate New York kicks off its tenth annual Sugar &amp; Spice gingerbread contest and exhibit later this month.   And to help would-be bakers and builders get into the mood, TAUNY is hosting a couple of workshops. Todd Moe spoke with TAUNY folklorist Hannah Harvester about this year&apos;s contest, and the history of gingerbread houses.  The tradition began in the mid-19th century when the story of Hansel and Gretel and a witch&apos;s candy cottage become popular. But Harvester says, in some cultures, baking gingerbread goes back centuries.

<description><![CDATA[ (Nov 24, 2006) Just as the oven begins to cool from the Thanksgiving feast, comes another seasonal favorite - Holiday baking. Fruitcakes, cookies and sweets are an annual tradition in many households this time of year. During the month of December, visitors to the Traditional Arts In Upstate New York, or TAUNY, gallery in Canton will be asked to vote for their favorite gingerbread house. Earlier this month, TAUNY offered a chance to learn the tasty art of building gingerbread structures. Gingerbread architect Sue Wilder held gingerbreading workshops for eager bakers to learn some secrets of making gingerbread houses.   Beth Robinson, co-host of NCPR&apos;s monthly arts program Open Studio, stopped by one of the workshops.
