Been there, done that! I first tried to make shortbread for my
husband's family on our first Christmas. The dough would hold
together but crumbled when I tried to ROLL it out (I thought I would
use cookie cutters). After half an hour of "new wife hysterics" my
husband called his mother who explained to me that this was perfect,
and could I just pat it into a pan now.
<sigh>
