lucky you, Beth; yes, surprises by their very definition come out of the blue; I might do a post on one soon: It’s a rich area to write about; there was a very funny anecdote by Richard Adams, you know the guy who wrote Hitchhiker;s Guide, about a surprise he had; I’ll see if I can chase it up 🙂 I found it, Beth, or rather a reference to it: if any reader wants to check it out Google ‘Douglas Adams + stolen biscuits’ 🙂
if your friend was an employee at the car wash, what a clever piece of marketing this could be, with every customer getting a fortune cookie. a fun way to leave a lasting impression on a customer…
Haha! I hope the surprise was yummy

thanks, Beth, once again you inspire me; I’ll work on it the next few days: wearing my ruby slippers in the study might help 🙂

Gratitude brings good fortune. Well, so does an order of Chinese food. A genuine smile is a wonderful thing.

Wait, so Stephen King wrote the fortune in the fortune cookie?!?!? Poor writers, always having to take on odd job to pay the bills. Ha,ha,ha.

Made me laugh because….for some reason I developed a belief that you MUST eat the cookie BEFORE reading the fortune. 🙂
