The waitress gave Anni and I chopsticks. Anni used them. I tried, but gave up at the first hint of an impending case of carpal tunnel. So they sat on the edge of my plate until Elise asked for them -- and then proceeded to eat the rest of her lunch with relative ease. Sure, it wasn't refined, but how is that possible? The lady still is honing her cutlery skills and now she's moving on to chopsticks? And better than me?!
The waitress noticed her picking up her noodles and vegetables with the chopsticks.
"She could be part Asian," the waitress said.
That's unlikely, but we played along.
As we were leaving the restaurant Elise asked for a fortune cookie. They don't offer them at the restaurant, but Anni told Elise she had one at home that she could have. (Who doesn't have fortune cookies in stock?)
So we got home and what's the first thing Elise asked for? The fortune cookie. I opened it to see the fortune. I kid you not, it actually said:
"You are talented with your hands."
