I really like burnt things like your shortbread.  In fact, that looks perfectly done to me .. not quite black but almost there. Yes, it&amp;#39;s perfect!  :) of course, I don&amp;#39;t burn my things on purpose, but I know that if I do happen to ... it will be savored by ME and ME only!&lt;br /&gt;Since I&amp;#39;m not there to savor it, throw it out for the birds. They will love you for it. &lt;br /&gt;Hope tomorrow is better for you, dear blog friend.&lt;br /&gt;Cathy</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8182851052777964857/7765696969019154214/comments/default/9202622382293987414'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8182851052777964857/7765696969019154214/comments/default/9202622382293987414'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://blog.thefrenchbear.ca/2009/12/could-it-get-any-worse.html?showComment=1261119281925#c9202622382293987414' title=''/><author><name>Caths Pennies Designs</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05027791852458976267</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='14769368435430313284'/><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ygYMnqU3rM8/Ses4tHrxYOI/AAAAAAAAAN4/iQndMC-66CM/S220/Picture+128.jpg'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://blog.thefrenchbear.ca/2009/12/could-it-get-any-worse.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8182851052777964857.post-7765696969019154214' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8182851052777964857/posts/default/7765696969019154214' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-1195431819'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8182851052777964857.post-3446819911225983080</id><published>2009-12-17T23:06:27.791-07:00</published><updated>2009-12-17T23:06:27.791-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Yes sweet Margaret do as Karyn says and breath.
