f you stand in just the right place, at just the right time, you are going to see some pretty amazing things. Like the three tall branches leaning against one another, creating the letter A. Or the spines of a cactus forming the letter F. And it looks like that bent, twisting tree trunk makes the bars of the letter K with that straight trunk in the foreground.

In Florida this winter I got into the habit of eating popsicles at night. Not one popsicle. Usually at least 4. Grape. It got expensive. So I went on Amazon looking for popsicle molds so I could make my own. This book was suggested and it sounded interesting so I bought it and I'm glad I did. It has loads of ideas for all kinds of flavors, textures, mix-ins, and ways to make them pretty. Without this book I never would have decided to bring popsicles to a pot luck supper. They were a hit!

Bleh, the very first recipe I tried in this one came out both under cooked *and* burned, it was a disaster and went right into the trash. That's literally the first cake I've made in my life that hasn't been in any way edible. I'm leery of trying any others, there's a lot of gimmickry in here but a couple of stand alone appealing ones have been bookmarked for when I get up the nerve.
