Gingerbread Owls

It's amazing how as soon as the weather cools off my taste buds start crying out for spicy holiday foods. I thought I'd make use of some of my many many cookie cutters and so I baked up some ginger owls. I made some dachshunds as well, but didn't get around to photographing them before they were all eaten.
I used Martha's recipe, and they were delicious. The day they were baked they were very crispy, but they softened up overnight (which I greatly prefer).
