Grandma Leona’s Shortbread Recipe

Grandma Leona's Shortbread

3/4 c sugar
3/4 lb butter (3 sticks)
4c flour

Using the paddle attachment on your mixer, cream butter and sugar thoroughly until light and fluffy. Add flour one cup at a time and mix well. Switch to dough hook if the mixer has a hard time.

Press into 9×15 jellyroll pan or 9×12 pan sprayed with cooking spray. Use a cookie stamp or a cut glass dish to press designs into the dough. If you don’t have anything like that, you can use a fork to prick holes in the top.

Bake at 325f for 35-40 minutes. Shortbread should be light golden brown. Cut in squares when hot from oven. Allow to cool in pan on wire rack. Store in a sealed container.

Un-Tynt Your Website (for Apache)

For more on the entire Tynt issue, see Eric Lander’s blog post on Tynt.

If you’re on an Apache server with mod rewrite & want to prevent Tynt from displaying your site here are some rules that may help:

RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR}    ^204\.244\.109\.(2(4[0-7]))$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR}    ^204\.244\.120\.(1(7[6-9]|8[0-3]))$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$    [F]

You can do plenty of other fun things instead of “RewriteRule ^(.*)$ [F]” if you like. For an example, check out the 404 page for SEOconsultants.com
