NOTES : Variation:  If you like, you can omit the glaze.  Before baking,
brush the dough with 1 to 2 tablespoons milk and sprinkle with sugar.

Special Touch:  Instead of the glaze, make a tangy Lemon Butter to serve with
the Gingerbread Wedges.  Stir together 1/3 cup margarine or butter, softened,
1 tablespoon grated lemon peel and 1 tablespoon lemon juice until well
blended.  Sprinkle with chopped crystallized ginger or lemon peel.
