Mick Mcgurk's Shortbread
"About 18 months ago I decided that I needed to know how to make shortbread. One friend gave me a recipe but it wasn't very specific about some of the ingredients and didn't turn out very well. When I mentioned this to Leggy Peggy she gave me this recipe and told me that it is foolproof; and it is. It's very easy and turns out beautifully every time. So enjoy your shortbread."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I am an editor and writer and like to cook. I also love cats and have two—Ebony and Zoe. Ebony is a Russian Black, hence my public name; and Zoe is a Korat. This isn't a common breed and even cat lovers are often not familiar with it. She's a little blue ball of muscle, sinew, energy and personality and she's always in a hurry. My other interests are going to the theatre, ballet and opera and reading. I am proud and delighted to be able to call LeggyPeggy, one of this site's moderators, my very good friend and it was she, in fact, who introduced me to this site.
