The last sandcastle


I don't know how a sandcastle fits into our first day of school celebration - except that we have the pan and love to use it. We crushed some shortbread cookies and added a little sugar to the edges. This mold is so versatile: vanilla sandcastle, chocolate dark knight castle in the powdered-sugar snow, underwater jello Atlantis castle, strawberry sorbet castle in the meringue clouds, abandoned castle or castle under siege when a tower falls off, cherry pink faerie castle with sprinkles, castle buried in the geranium leaf jungle...cornbread castle served with chicken soup, ice mold castle with flowers and mint leaves inside!
