Paige: Mom! Look! It says I'm going to have my best school year ever!
Andy: Paige, how many fortune cookies did you have to go through to find that?
Paige: A few. Why?
You’re just “filtering” to what kind of fortune you want to hear/have. It doesn’t work that way.
Also, you do realize that “Chinese” Fortune Cookies aren’t really (anything) Chinese (at all) made or from China, right?
Even if there was such a thing as Chinese Fortune Cookies, there’s a unknown/unspecified waiting period before your next cookie reading or until your (yet to be) little fortune/prophecy has come to past… assuming you don’t mess it up.
By the way, put on a little weight there Paige… or should I say Miss Zeppelin?
yes, fortune cookies are Japaneese. And yes it’s fun to add tags like “between the sheets” “in bed” or “under cover”. But really, wouldn’t it be far more effective for Paige to make her own? or order them with a personalized fortune? (one couple I know did this for their wedding and had them read “and they lived happily ever after”)

It just like those people thinking that drinking diet soda will make them lose weight, even if they eat large quantities of fast food.

My daughter will never eat fortune cookies too much sugar. The fortunes are not funny.

Well, you certainly won’t have any success with boys now. Stop looking to Peter as a role model.

Wouldn’t going through that many fortune cookies interfere with the effectiveness of the fortune anyway, logistically speaking?

Paige should move over to Dinette Set. She’d fit right in in Crustwood.
