Description
"Fortune Cookies", an original oil painting by Karyn Robinson.
What started out as just a fun little painting turned into a learning experience. I had always thought of the fortune cookie as a purely Chinese culinary invention. However, I learned from Wikipedia that although they are often served as dessert in Chinese restaurants in the US, they are not a tradition in China. Further more, their exact origin is unclear. They most likely originated from cookies made by Japanese immigrants to the United States in the late 19th or early 20th century.
One additional note. I ate this still life.
