"I love it."
I bought this on a whim. My Mum's name was Sheila and she always bought me shortbread for Christmas....so I had to buy it. The lid doesn't fit tight enough for me to think it would be air tight, but it won't be used as a biscuit barrel by me afterwards. It's cute and as long as you don't look too closely at the paint job (the nose and 1 side of the smile is off), it can be forgiven. It really is just a novelty item, but it's solidly made, so that's ok with me.
