Shortbread from England

Shortbread is what Philip bought us after his school's visit to England in April, 2014. I expect the shortbread to be very heavy with butter, but no,on the whole, it is lighter in butter.

My great interest comes from their shapes. There are Union Jacks, London buses, roses (National flower of England) and ones that I am still thinking what they mean. From this box of shortbread, I learn that English people are very patriotic and proud of their country, even their shortbread carry strong and easy-to-recognize "symbols" of England.
