   If I clench it in my hand, I can make it hang together.  Briefly.  If I
poke it with a fork, it falls apart into little bits.  We're talking about how
wet sand acts (but not that gritty).  Is that "very crumbly", or too dry?
=Caitlin (yes, I know this is like "how wet is wet," but I'd rather not bake a
pan of something that won't be edible)

that sounds about right to me.
(another good additive to shortbread- which kinda makes it another creature,
is ground or slivered almonds in the mix)
