Not sure if I can really recommend that method but the inclusion of wholemeal wheat flour certainly added a nice nutty flavour! Not sure if I should have omitted some butter in favour of ice water?<BR/>Thanks for all your wedding dress tips! Unfortunately, I've only found very experienced and therefore not really cheap seamstresses. They make beautiful clothes though... I'll try to get something good and cheap at the sales this weekend - wish me luck..;-)<BR/><BR/>Thanks Gabi, it was indeed quite a challenge in time management...<BR/><BR/>Thanks Tartelette, a compliment from you is always appreciated!Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17321765499588376373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29235694.post-4656529089335323002008-01-31T16:02:00.000+11:002008-01-31T16:02:00.000+11:00You did a fabulous job!

And you used ALL the butter called for in the recipe in the pastry, basically making shortbread?<BR/><BR/>I've always loved lemon curd with shortbread so I can imagine that your pie was delicious.<BR/><BR/>-Elizabeth<BR/><BR/>P.S. Have you gone to a dressmaker to see how much it might cost to have a dress made? It might turn out to be much more affordable, much less time consuming in the long run, not to mention that you'd have the fabric and pattern you like. I had my wedding dress made and paid a fraction of the price that it would have cost to buy a dress ready made. I went to a dressmaker, who designed the pattern after consulting with me (although I probably could have found a pattern in a book - "Vogue" patterns are very reliable) and then with her recommendation about how much fabric was required, went to a store she recommended to buy good quality silk. The total cost also included fittings, sewing the dress. The dressmaker was very good and not horribly expensive; she had just graduated from dressmaking school. Comparable dresses that I tried on in actual shops cost 3 and 4 times as much (and they weren't sewn as well) Most dressmakers will know where the good fabric stores are.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08818302133113874649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29235694.post-19590869199607378012008-01-30T13:52:00.000+11:002008-01-30T13:52:00.000+11:00The swirls and curvy peaks on top of the meringue ...The swirls and curvy peaks on top of the meringue are beautiful.
