Sounded simple. We had plenty extra.
I opened it.
I opened it.
"Only tears can bring a dreamer back to earth."
(I wish I had been dreaming when this occurred).
My cookie was STALE! :~(
I threw it out and got another.
"You will have a happier day."
(I hope so. A stale fortune cookie could ruin my day!)
It was soft AND stale. :~(
I got another.
"Oops... wrong cookie."
(NO JOKE)
It was also stale.
I was still frying onions and I WANTED A FORTUNE COOKIE!!!
So I got a 4th.
"There is someone owing many thanks to you."
(For what? Getting rid of stale fortune cookies??)
It was awful.
So cookie no. 5 came along.
"He that can't endure the bad will not live to see the good."
Now I wanted to laugh.
Especially because it was disgusting......
So I decided since the onions I was frying were almost ready for the potatoes....this would be my last.
I opened it.
Gently broke it open.
Carefully tasted it....
IT WAS YUMMY!
"The secret of success is constancy of purpose."
My fortune cookie saga.
(Surprisingly we still have more.... :~D)
