To eat or not to eat.

Ever since I started eating Chinese food, (which probably means after I came to the so-called promise land, America) I've had this love affair, obsession, fetish - whatever you want to call it- with fortune cookies. Now I don't devour them like other people do, in fact, I almost never eat them. My vice? Enter the fortune. While some are humorous and spunky, others are thought provoking and wise. Here's the catch: after reading the fortune part of the cookie, most if not all, of the indulgers usually discard them. Me? I keep em'. Yes, even the silly ones. I don't know, everyone has their THING. And this is one of mine. I've never been one for collecting stamps or coins, but the little whites are small enough to put in your wallet after dinner out. Portable AND entertaining. 

Okay. 

Before you start to think this blog is all about the wonders of fortune cookies and a complete waste of time. Hang on.
