If it’s the holiday season, there must be a gingerbread house greeting visitors to the Concord Free Public Library.
Each year, Emerson general surgeon Andrea Resciniti sets her scalpel aside and creates a scrumptious masterpiece to display in the library.
This is the doctor’s 30th year of culinary construction and 17th gingerbread house donated to the library.
A card next to the candy-festooned house reveals it took 28 batches of gingerbread and a month of work and is the tallest house Resciniti has built. It features Christmas trees, angels, snowmen, Santa Claus, and eight tiny reindeer with one red-nosed leader.
The house will be on display through mid-January.
