no pay leave and the returns are more than sufficient to cover it. think about this...how much do you pay for a jar of cookies (esp the london almond ones)... -

actually .. i don't know whether my mum got a recipe or not .. I'll ask her tonite ..

I found 1 online!!!
Looks quite good. Wahaha...
1 1/3 cup of unbleached all-purpose flour (or plain flour)
2/3 cup of icing sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. baking soda
(B)
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/3 cup + 2 Tbp. canola oil
Method:
1. Sift (A) into a mixing bowl. Add (B) and use a fork to stir it. Mix well, a soft dough should form. Knead the dough a few times so that the vanilla extract can distribute evenly.
2. Use your hands and roll the dough into small balls (about 1 tsp. size). Place on parchment lined baking sheet.
3. Use the back of a chopstick, the round one and place an indentation in the middle of the cookie.
4. Bake at preheated 350'F oven for 15-18 mins.
~Yield 62 small cookiesP.S. Anyone knows what's canola oil? Can it be found in supermarkets?

I make p tarts every year. They are a lot of work but totally worth it.

you can try get their seacumbers and fresh frozen abalone and scallop very big and cheap. Abalone per pack last yr i bought is $20~30 inside got 4 fist size abalones. The seller will teach you how to cook it so that it taste as good or even better than the can abalone. You can try that too.
