A few months ago, I visited the local football club to discuss crowdfunding and how they could receive match funding by starting a campaign. This would not only introduce a new way of funding projects but also help sustain the club's future.

I’ve tried making shortbread before, but there are helpful tips you learn when someone shows you, like cutting the butter into pieces to avoid warming it too much and refrigerating it. It’s probably all in the recipe, but it’s nice to be shown—even though you could watch it on YouTube. I moved on to the shortcrust pastry while the shortbread was in the fridge. I tried getting the breadcrumb consistency again, but it didn’t work. I ended up making more shortbread and had to restart the shortcrust pastry. I forgot the salt, so the taste will probably be flat. There’s a technique involving using a knife to cut the mixture, something about mixing it properly. I’m sure you can learn this...
