About

The first time I had Chinese take-out with my husband, we discovered something we had in common — a tradition of collecting fortunes from fortune cookies. I saved the ones that were most poignant for that moment in my life, while he saved every single one he ever had. Together, we realized we had quite a collection. We vowed that some day we would figure out something interesting to do with them all.

Then it dawned on us that we could create a blog celebrating these tidbits of wisdom, and the idea for this blog was born. Each week (or more often if the spirit moves us) we will post a new fortune, picked at random, along with our reflections on it. We hope that you’ll enjoy these as much as we have!
