Gingerbread

• 1 C honey

• 1 C breadcrumbs

• 1 tsp. ginger

• 1/4 tsp. pepper

• 1 TBS sugar

• 5 tsp. sugar

• 1 tsp. ground cloves

In a cooking pot, bring the honey to a boil. Lower heat and simmer for about three minutes. Stir in breadcrumbs with a spatula until well mixed. Remove from heat, and then stir in ginger, pepper and 1 tablespoon of sugar. When the mixture is cool enough to handle, knead to spread spices evenly. Place mixture into a greased glass loaf pan; flatten with a wide glass or lid. Sprinkle the mixture with 5 teaspoons of sugar, and place cloves around the edges (just so they barely penetrate the dough). Allow the cloves to set in the mixture, but do not eat them. Cool the gingerbread mix and eat at room temperature, or chill for several hours before serving.
