No building permits needed for these tasty structures

MORE PHOTOS AND A VIDEO AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS STORY.

Several new construction companies built their first residences in Ada on Thursday and Friday. None had building permits; no matter. Each house will be eaten by New Year’s Day, maybe sooner.

Features of these new structures:
Graham crackers
Icing
M and Ms
Gumballs
Lollipops
Chocolate chips
Tootsie rolls

You get the idea. You’ve probably constructed one or two in your lifetime: They are called gingerbread houses.

Houses were constructed under the auspices of the Ada Publlc Library. Photos of several of the structures are in an attachment at the bottom of this story, as is a video.
