Write your own fortune cookie fortune. If you could give your 2 cents in a fortune cookie what would you say? What advice would you give? What would the lucky numbers be? And would you offer a certain word for the fortune cookie eater to learn in Chinese?

My toddler daughter recently munched her first fortune cookie. Her fortune was so good I saved it in her baby book:

 Your life is a dashing and bold adventure.

My fortune cookie story is a weird one. I was enjoying the lunch buffet at Empire Wok in Jordan (mmmmm!) and at the end of my meal I cracked open my fortune cookie. It was empty. Horrors! The friend I was lunching with insisted I take another so I did and found the little, tiny scrap of paper had nothing on it. Not a good day for me. At least I'm still alive to tell the tale. Perhaps NO FORTUNE is better than a bad fortune? (By the way, since that time I've had many fine meals at Empire Wok, and I've enjoyed much good fortune!)

My favorite fortune cookie story isn’t about me at all (I’ve never really gotten a great one). A friend and I were eating at a Chinese buffet in Iowa, and he pulled out his fortune: “Someone is watching you.” Not only is that not fortunate at all, it’s a little creepy. We pinned it to the bulletin board at the theater where we both worked.

The fortune cookie I got two nights ago said:

"Good fortune will rain down on you when winter comes."

In Minnesota, I think it's more likely to sleet or snow, rather than rain. But, I can't complain about some good luck coming my way.
