    The tweaks have this coming along sweetly.
    The nuttiness of the crust is almost perfect, almond shortbread goodness.
    The tartness could use just a slight more kick, I'll try 3/4 cup of lemon juice next time.
    And the glaze is perfect with the lemon zest, better than plain powdered sugar.
