I still like the elegant and decorous christmas holiday chocolate pastries they have in spain (catalunya) that are designed to look exactly like t*rds (feces), sometimes including exquisitely crafted little flies made from sugar crystals. Anyway, instead of sending any more "cultural enricment friday" stuff, I would instead like to ask why is short bread "short"? I can't RTFM since my old, worn out "Joy of Cooking" is at home, somewhere in a box in the garage... we just moved. thanks, ep On 29 Mar 2001, at 11:00, Ruth Gramolini wrote: ... > I love shortbread.
