This week, Shannon talks to Eric Drivdahl with Gelotte Hommas Architecture about this year's Gingerbread Village, an annual event held at the Sheraton to benefit Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation Northwest Chapter.

As most savvy buyers and sellers know, spring is the peak season for home sales. But job and lifestyle changes can sometimes make it imperative to sell during the winter months. Our Northwest winters can make it difficult for your home to look its best and attract those buyers who, like you, need to relocate in the winter.

The 24th Annual Gingerbread Village was unveiled Monday at the Sheraton Seattle Hotel lobby. Creations were inspired by scenes from the wizarding world. The event came together with more than 1,000 volunteer hours, an estimated 1,200 pounds of dough, 800 pounds of icing, 200 pounds of white chocolate, 250 pounds of almond paste, and hundreds of pounds of candy.

Workers from Shoreline's Irons Brothers Construction joined local businesses and the Master Builders Association of King and Snohomish Counties in partnership with Kindering, the largest and most comprehensive therapy program in the Northwest for children who are disabled, medically fragile, or at risk.

Last Friday, Shannon spoke with Alison Morton, Director of Development at Kindering, about the great work their organization does and how the MBA's Painting a Better Tomorrow program helps their mission.
