Melt-in-your-mouth【Pecan Shortbread Cookies】
by MaomaoMom
Both my son and husband loved the Melt-in-the-mouth shortbread cookies. Today, I made these wonderful cookies with addition of pecans. Instead of using all-purpose flour, I accidentally used cake&pastry flour. Amazingly, these cookies turn out to be so crispy, truly melting in your mouth.

One thing is that while you are searching for a student loan you may find that you will want a co-signer. There are many conditions where this is true because you might find that you do not employ a past history of credit so the loan provider will require you have someone cosign the credit for you. Interesting post.
