    Fortune Coo-keys!

    Sunday, August 30th, 2009

    Sent to me via Twitter by @ascottfalk.. “Fortune Cookeys” for keys. It reminds me that early spelling of fortune cookies was actually “fortune cooky” as of the 1950s. And before that “fortune tea cakes.” I wonder if the “fortune cooky” was an intentional or unintentional mis-spelling by the part of the Chinese entrepreneurs.
