Someone PLEASE take this pan of shortbread away from me!

[Lucinda]

I'm thinking of getting one of my sisters a shortbread mold for her birthday so I'm testing recipes to include and I can't stop nibbling.

FORTUNATELY I only made a partial batch. :eyes:

Sometimes I have zero self control.

1. Do you ever

leave your house? :rofl:











Ummm...I believe you already know what to do with any excess goodies! :D

[Lucinda]

2. Not too often, as a matter of fact.

:D
I'm hoping I'll feel up to it when the early wildflowers start to bloom. The nat'l park here rocks in the spring.

I'll happily email ya a big bunch of the shortbread. It's sooo rich, but tasty. A little goes a long way so I don't need to keep much.

3. You live in one

of my favorite parts of the country. It's so beautiful. If I was wealthy and could afford not to work I would live up in those mountains and never come down except to restock supplies.

Do you ever listen to WDVX? When my favorite internet station is down, I like to tune into Grace and her Americana programming. http://www.wdvx.com/

4. We're close enough to the park boundry that we get bears wandering through the neighborhood.

:)
I love this place. My health keeps me home most of the time and I honestly don't mind at all. I do miss the ocean sometimes though. I grew up in California and it was an hour to the mountains OR to the ocean. That was pretty cool.

Thanks for the link. It's new for me. I'll check it out.

5. Where in CA? n/t

6. La County - San Gabriel Valley through school. Several cities, my mom sold real estate

and liked to move a lot. :D

Later on I lived in Huntington Beach.

I'm sure i wouldn't recognize the place now. I've been gone since 1990.

7. I moved down here

11 and a half years ago and I barely recognize my home town when I go back, either.

I'm heading up to bed now to read for a bit before nodding off. Have a good night. :hi:

[Lucinda]

10. Night! Happy reading. I still have to clean up post dinner carnage.

I've been procrastinating. :eyes:
:hi:

8. San Gabriel Valley!

Growing up, I lived in the Rosemead, Montebello and Pasadena areas. I go back often for the good vegetarian Chinese restaurants, It’s changed a bit but still recognizable.

9. Small world! I've lived in:

La Puente
El Monte
Baldwin Park
Covina
West Covina
Azusa
Glendora
Rosemead

:D In no particular order. Some much more briefly than others.

12. I lived in Arcadia for a number of years...

...right on the backside of the Arboretum, near Santa Anita.

11. Care to share your recipe, for the full batch ;=D

I tried making some years ago and they were rather dry and crumbly.

:hi:
