Chinese food always reminds me of fortune cookies. For all non-foodies out there, I found a how-to video (you can also press play below) on making fortune cookies out of paper. I think paper fortune cookies are way prettier than the edible ones (of course, the edible ones are yummier). :P

P.S.
I have a post on Chinese takeout boxes here to accompany these cute paper fortune cookies. Check it out.
These are adorable!
