thought some of these were cute :D

Borrow money from a pessimist -- they don't expect it back.
Few women admit their age; few men act it.
We have enough youth. How about a fountain of "Smart"?
He who laughs last thinks slowest.
Campers: Nature's way of feeding mosquitoes.
There are three kinds of people: Those who can count and those who can't.
Laugh alone and the world thinks you're an idiot.

*A budget is just a method of worrying before you spend money, as well as afterward.
*A fair face may fade, but a beautiful soul last forever.
*A friend is someone who thinks you're a good egg even though you're slightly cracked.
*Adult: A person who has stopped growing at both ends and is now growing in the middle. haha

Bigamy is having one wife too many. Monogamy is the same.
When a man opens a car door for his wife, it's either a new car or a new wife.

i did a search for fortune cookie sayings and here are some i liked

Chance makes our parents, but choice makes our friends
Success means competition
An old pot is the best around the kitchen
One must be available, alert, active, and adaptable
If you have many best friends, you have no friends
Mountains can move, but not your character
Concern yourself about others more than yourself
The best lovers make love on a full stomach

Thanks for that recipe!!

One question... it says "slide offset spatula under cookie..." Is offset spatula a particular kind of spatula?
