Beautiful Sunday's Cookie

I has been a little while since I gathered some fortune cookies. Just have been busy working a little. Today is a beautiful Sunday. A little Cool tough, with bright Sunshine. A little breeze in the air, see some kids flying their kites, and it is Spring break here for the school kids, most families had gone to the beach.

Today Cookie said

"You will have many friends when you need them"
How true is this for everyone? Sometimes there are true friends who will stand with you trough all your ups and downs, no matter what. But, how often do we find friends that are there when you most need them? Even though I was away my home country for so many years, I still have a few true friends whom I met since elementary school, who still keep in touch and still remember my birthday every year. These are my real friends in need. The saying goes " A friend in Need is a friend Indeed".

Easter Fortune Cookie

Throughout North America, , the Easter holiday has been partially secularized, so that some families participate only in the attendant revelry, central to which is (traditionally) decorating Easter eggs on Saturday evening and hunting for them Sunday morning, by which time they have been mysteriously hidden all over the house and garden. Chocolate eggs have largely supplanted decorated eggs in Australia.
In North America, eggs and other treats are delivered and hidden by the Easter Bunny in an Easter basket which children find waiting for them when they wake up. Many families in America will attend Sunday Mass or services in the morning and then participate in a feast or party in the afternoon.
In the UK children still paint colored eggs, but most British people simply exchange chocolate eggs on the Sunday. Chocolate Easter Bunnies can be found in shops, but the idea is considered primarily a US import. Many families have a traditional Sunday roast, particularly roast lamb, and eat foods like Simnel cake, a fruit cake with eleven marzipan balls representing the eleven faithful apostles. Hot cross buns, spiced buns with a cross on top, are traditionally associated with Good Friday, but today are eaten through Holy Week and the Easter period.

Today Easter Fortune cookie reads "Wish You A Good Journey"- This is good for those who plan to take your Spring Break Vacation.

Cookies for Veterans

Monday is Veterans Day. There will be no school for some kids and no work for some.
Well, it is day where all the shopping places like Kohl, Target,Ross ,JC Penney and Macy are starting to have holidays sales with 30% to 75% OFF. Great time to start your Christmas Shopping. Actually, Thanksgiving Day is still about 2 weeks away. I thought Sales only start on Black Friday.But, why do Americans act so crazy, everyone only go shopping on that day and you have to get up so early in the cold and freezing morning?, some waited in line for 2 hours before the shops open for business.And they would push and fight for just one particular to or game box.After that you have to stand in line ,another 2 hours to pay for your merchandise. I guess this is one weird American Custom.
So for tomorrow Veterans special Fortune cookies say
"You have a Quiet and unobtrusive nature" This is true, for I am always a queit person, although I love to socialise and have a lot of friends. I always find it hard to carry a long conversation, I will run out of subjects, do not know what to say. I have a few friends who always can carry a long and lenghty conversation, they can alway find something to chat or argue with you,any kind of subjects. And they are always popular and interesting in a crowd, but sometimes can be annoying .For they can chat and chat nonstop .Does this mean they want attention ? But they will never bored a party.Right?

What to do with your fortune's paper?

The weather is turning cool over here these few days.With this kind of weather, I have been restless and sleepy all the time.Feel like going in to hibenation. I know I have not been posting last few days. I was wondering what do people do with thier fortune cookies paper. Some will eat up their cookies and leave the paper on the table after their meals, some will keep them in their purse, to remind them of their good fortunes from time to times. There are some who would save them , under their pillow or in the safe. Since I have been reading a lot , I have been saving them in a small wine glass. Maybe I can sell them on ebay one day. What would you do with yours?

Today I have a few fortunes

" Discontent is the first step in the progress of a man or a nation"

'You have a reputation for being straight forward and honest"

"You have a potential urge and the ablility for accomplishment."

"You are broad minded and socially active"

"Don't let friends impose on you,work calmly and silently"

"You have an iron will, which helps you suceed in everything"

"You have much skill in expressing yourself to be effective."

Atlanta Dim Sum

Today we took a trip to Atlanta, Georgia.The drive is about 2 hours from Columbus,Georgia. Traffic is not too bad on Sunday. We went to The Canton House for some Dim Sum. This restaurant is always packed especially on Sunday. Even though we arrived at almost 2 pm ,we still have to wait 10 minutes to be seated. As you sat down,the waiter will bring you a pot of Hot Tea, Oolong or Poo Li.
Then you see some ladies pushing some carts and ask each table if they wanted any of the items there.As the carts came along we ordered Roast Pork bun,Siu Mai,Har Kow(Shrimp)Beef Meat Balls, Yam Cakes and Cheong Fun. All those little platters looked so tempting. Tasted Okay but not enough salt.However, we enjoyed it since we have not been eating such delicacy for a long time.

Popolar Vietnamese Dish

If you go to a Vietnamese restaurant and do not know what to order,I recommend you the Pho(Far) This is rice noodles in clear beef broth. Usually topped with slice roast beef, fresh beef tenderloin,Beef tripe and pork. However you can choose your choice of meat , maybe some chicken or shrimp. It is not spicy, but usually accompanied by a plate of beansprout, lettuce and parsley . Also slice of lemon/lime and green chili pepper (Very Hot) But it taste even better if you put a little of the Thai hot pepper sauce on it. With the spice and the hot soup, it will bring out all the sweat and excitement in you.
Also order you some spring roll, fried or steam. They are delicious.

Today my fortune cookie says(I will give you two, since I was not here last 2 days.)

Recipe for Fortune Cookies

Most of the time we get our Fortune Cookies from the Chinese Restaurant. When you want to buy them, they are hard to find in the grocery store.And they are not fresh.Sometimes you can ask the Chinese Restaurant owner to sell you some, they are either reluctant or charge you a lot , maybe 25 cents for a cookie.
Well, maybe you can try making your own fortune cookies, put your own flavor like orange, chocolate or coconut.Also you can put in your own fortune, maybe like a proposal.Here is a recipe I found and like to share it . Give me a review if you have try it.


INGREDIENTS
1 egg white
1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
1/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1/4 cup white sugar
Other flavors(Optional) 1 teaspoon of cocoa powder,or 1 tablespoon of orange juice(concentrated)


DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Butter a cookie sheet. Type fortunes on strips of paper about 4 inches long and 1/2 inch wide. Generously grease 2 cookie sheets.
Beat the egg white and vanilla until foamy but not stiff. Sift the flour, salt, and sugar and blend into the egg white mixture.
Place teaspoonfuls of the batter at least 4 inches apart on one of the prepared cookie sheets. Tilt the sheet to move the batter into round shapes about 3 inches in diameter. Be careful to make batter as round and even as possible. Do not make too many, because the cookie have to be really hot to form them and once they cool it is too late. Start with 2 or 3 to a sheet and see how many you can do.
Bake for 5 minutes or until cookie has turned a golden color 1/2 inch wide around the outer edge of the circle. The center will remain pale. While one sheet is baking, prepare the other.
Remove from oven and quickly move cookie with a wide spatula and place upside down on a wooden board. Quickly place the fortune on the cookie, close to the middle and fold the cookie in half. Place the folded edge across the rim of a measuring cup and pull the pointed edges down, one on the inside of the cup and one on the outside. Place folded cookies into the cups of a muffin tin or egg carton to hold their shape until firm.
Enjoy your own fortune cookie.
Todays my cookie says "Beauty in its various forms appeals to you."
What is beauty? Physically or mentally? A lot of people sees beauty as it is shown physically, but real beauty comes from inside .There is beauty in caring for others, love and in nature. Have you ever sit down in a park or by the beach to enjoy the real beauty of nature, enjoy the sound of the waves, the softness of the wind and the beauty of the sun setting? This is real beauty of nature from God,that no money can buy.

Origin of The Fortune Cookies.

Where did the Fortune Cookie originate from? United States of America or China? What is a Fortune Cookie? Why is it so popular in America?
Have you ever asked yourself these questions? What is it with the Fortune Cookie?

The Fortune Cookie is a delicate, crisp cookie made from flour, sugar, butter, vanilla, and milk which is baked around a fortune, a piece of paper with words of faux wisdom or vague prophecy. Unique to the United States and Canada, it is usually served with Chinese food as a dessert. The message inside may also include a list of lucky numbers (used by some as lottery numbers) and a Chinese phrase with translation. Despite conventional wisdom, they were actually invented in California.

San Francisco and Los Angeles both lay claim to the origin of the fortune cookie. Makoto Hagiwara of Golden Gate Park's Japanese Tea Garden in San Francisco is said to have invented the cookie in 1909,[1] while David Jung, founder of the Hong Kong Noodle Company in Los Angeles, is said to have invented them in 1918.[2]

San Francisco's Court of Historical Review ruled in 1983 in favor of San Francisco. Although the court was presided over by a Federal judge, the court itself has been criticized as being less than serious and biased in favor of San Francisco. Its conclusions, therefore, might not be the final word on the subject.[2]

The cookies are generally called by the English term fortune cookies, even by Chinese Americans, as there is no standard Chinese term for them. In the Chinese language, however, fortune cookie has been translated variously as 幸运签饼, 签语饼, 幸运饼, 幸运签语饼, 幸运甜饼, 幸福饼干, 幸运饼干, 幸运饼, 幸运籤语饼, 籤语饼, or 占卜饼.

The non-Chinese origin of the fortune cookie is humorously illustrated in Amy Tan's 1989 novel The Joy Luck Club, in which a pair of Chinese immigrant women find jobs at a fortune cookie factory in America. They are amused by the unfamiliar concept of a fortune cookie but, after several hilarious attempts at translating the fortunes into Chinese, come to the conclusion that the cookies contain not wisdom, but "bad instruction."

Although many people do not take the message in a fortune cookie as a serious oracular device, many of them consider it part of the game that the entire cookie must be consumed in order for the fortune to come true.[6] Variations on this idea include not eating the cookie if a fortune seems unlucky, or the idea that the entire cookie must be eaten before the fortune is read. Or conversely, the fortune must be read before any of the cookie is eaten. Some people believe the fortune will not come true if it is read aloud. Additionally, the fortune is said to come true if one uses "your lucky numbers" on the back of the fortune to play, and win, a game of Krypto.

The new version of some fortune cookies comes up with Learning Chinese . A Chinese phrase with translation and pronunciation is typed on it.
Have any one ever think about inserting some bad fortune instead of good fortune, and see what will be the results,..Ha ha,joke!!!

Today Fortune Cookie says:"You will travel far and wide, both pleasure and business"

This is great, my passion to travel, and see the world and I can blog about my travelling , the people I meet and the new culture I can learn from.

Columbus Top 10 Restaurant.

Today , we have dinner at One of Columbus's Top Ten Restaurant. We dined at Chef Lee Chinese Restaurant,One of the best restaurant voted by Restaurant Magazine and endorsed by Martin Yan.
Indeed this is one of the best decorated Chinese Restaurant, with antique Chinese decoration, a pond with lots of Koi Fish and with beautiful Chinese Music background. You feel like you are in China Town.Also known as Peking Restaurant.
We asked the waiter for some special oriental dishes rather than the typical American Chinese Menu.He recommended Steamed Fish, Ma Po Tofu(Bean curd cooked with
minced port, onions on a spicy sauce) Stir fried Egg Plant with Garlic Sauce and Stir fried Napa with Pork.
We waited a little long because all the dishes were specially prepared.They came out hot and fresh especially the fish.Every dish tasted well seasoned , perfect. Service was excellent. It is worth it.I recommend Chef Lee's if you come to Columbus,Georgia.
Located on Bradley Park Drive.

Today Fortune Cookie : "Someone is speaking well of you"

Florida's Fortune cookies.

Today we have to drive 3 hours to Tallahassee, Florida. It is a long drive with beautiful weather.This is quite a big city, where Florida States University is located.
We did a little work and by lunch time , we were hungry so we drove around to find a good restaurant to eat. Saw The China Delight. An average Chinese restaurant. Not too busy, just a few tables of customers. The restaurant is modestly decorated. There is no buffet,we have to order from the lunch menu.About 16 items from the menu.

We ordered Chicken with Broccoli and Chicken Lo Mein. It came served with Fried rice,Eggroll and Hot and Sour Soup. The soup was delicious. We asked for hot pepper sauce, it was really spicy. Later, we ask for duck sauce for our eggroll but the waiter bought us some red red sweet and sour sauce. Service *** Food***
China Delight is located on 220,West Tennessee Street,Tallahassee, Fl 32301.
Fortune Cookies says: "You will bring sunshine into some one's life."

I would always like to share my time, happiness and love with someone I love.If you can bring a smile and love to someone everyday, why not? Start with the people around you, your fiends, neighbours and families.

Lucky Pizza

Today we want to try a pizza from Cici's pizza.I love the pizza there, the large pepperoni pizza is about 15" in diameter, covered with cheese.They are ready to pick up when you go to the drive thru. I love the service at Cici's. The employees are always so friendly and everyone will give you a big smile and welcome you when you walk in. "Welcome to Cici's". Every one in there will greet you, even the kitchen staff.The pizza comes in a thick crust, a little spicy but they taste Delicious. Also, so with some garlic sauce. This is my lucky pizza because I got a good deal.The staff give me a big discount since they are closing up.
Today Lucky Pizza fortune is" You Love Peace"
Everyone loves Peace whether it is at home, at work or out in the world. Why are there still wars everywhere among nations and countries? Why can't people live peacefully?
I love peacefulness . Sometimes I just love when my kids are not home. I can have all the peacefulness by my self.The best thing I want to wish for is Peace to whole World.

Busy Day Cookie

Today I really had a busy day. Got up at 6.30 am . I drove to the Flea Market at Victory Drive to sell some of my stuff. Instead trying to get rid of most of my junks, I bought more stuff to sell, got some walking canes and more costume jewelries.
I already reserved my booth , so when I reached, I just have to set up .Took me 30 minutes to set up, I really do not have a lot of stuff like the other folks.My first customer bought 3 walking canes,bargained till five dollars(I asked for 6). but I was glad to make the first sale. Later, through out the day I was able to sell some Tee-shirt and a table saw my husband asked me to sell. Sold for $40.00. Only sold a couple of necklaces and bracelets. Sold a little more stuff and I decided to call it a day after 2.30 pm. One vendor told me, to stay till 5 as more people will come.
On the way home I stopped by to get some grocery at Rainbow Food, They have fresh meat at lower price.
Went home took a nap, and at 8.30 went to a friend birthday party, ate a lot of home cooked meals, and reached home at 1.30 am. This was a long and busy day for me.
So I only have one cookie to read.
The Cookie says "Time is the Wisest Counselor"
Is this true? To me Time is really precious, Sometime it is not enough, If I have more time , I would want to do more things and get more accomplished. But we cannot go back in time.So we better make use of the time we have,get more things done,accomplished more goals,and spend more time with our families and friends.Time flies away fast and we may never catch it again.

Little Ceasars-Hot And Ready Pizza

Yesterday, I was too lazy to cook and I do not want to eat out.I decided to pick up a pizza for my youngest son, Joel.I went to the Drive-Thru and Little Caesar's at Buena Vista Road. My son loves the pizza here.Just ask the cashier at the Drive thru," I need a Hot and Ready Pizza"It cost $4.99 plus tax($5.30) and you will get a large 15" round pizza covered pepperoni and cheese, just out of the oven. Comes with a cup of mazzollera sauce.Even, when you reach home , it is still hot.
And my son can eat the whole pizza,for lunch and dinner. It is a very good deal,for less than $6.00. Next time, you have a party or having some guests over, get you some
Hot and Ready Pizza. It don't come with any fortune cookies but you can get some Crazy Bread for 99 cents.
Today Fortune Cookie Says: "Your fate is in no one else buy you, no other hands but yours."
A lot of people believe that their lives are fated. They blamed everything on fate.Especially the Orientals, they believe in fate. But ,you can change your fate, you can always work for the better. If you don't work,fate can never help you, you have to help yourself, no one ,even your best friend can help you, if you do not do anything to help yourself.

Today Chinese word- Pe Che How =Good Temper.

Today,We have to drive to Montgomery, Alabama again.We had a quick lunch at China East. We ordered Mandarin combination and Fried Rice Noodles. The Hot and Sour Soup was good.
Spent the whole day trying to get some permits from cityhall,downtown. By the time we finished, everyone was hungry so we decided to eat at the Super Buffet Restaurant

We could not eat a lot although we were hungry.
The service was not perfect,just average, the waiter just stood at a corner, never refill our drinks, and when he cleared our plates, he was not too friendly.We got our fortune cookies though.
Our cookies said "You need to recharge.Spend time alone in nature" I love nature,it has been a long time since I last spent my time there.
"You have an active mind and keen imagination.'' True, I always keep myself busy.

These cookies have extra bonus . You can learn Chinese.
