Writing on rice, may sound hard and impossible, but actully you can. Really, so this is how to write on rice. You need long grain rice. You can use Vietnamese long rice, but don't use Taiwan short rice. You need a fine tip pen. Stick the grain of rice an a piece of clay. Using the ball point pen, write on the grain of rice. When done, make it into a charm.
The answer depends on the grain size, lithology, moisture content, and level of compaction of the sand. Generally, one cubic ft of clean (no silt/clay), dry, fine to medium sand that has been compacted to a dense, non-yielding condition will weigh about 110 lbs., while a loose fine to medium sand will weigh about 100 lbs. per cubic foot.
