The Fortune Cookie Message Of The Week Club

It is now time for one of your favourite regular features here on ‘The Major’s Life Blog’, and that of course would be the continuing mini-series that is ‘The Fortune Cookie Message Of The Week Club’.

But first this is ‘Today’ on NBC.

Actually let me rant for a minute here about a pet-peeve of mine. I arrived at Panda Express at 11:07 AM. They are supposed to open at 11:00 AM. ‘Supposed’ is the key word here. I’ve forgiven the fact that during the Lunch hour they typically have an extremely limited selection as part of their a-la-carte menu. I’m sure that they have a much bigger selection of delicious food items available for consumption later on in the day. I just wish I knew what they tasted like. I can’t forgive the fact that when they (or any restaurant for that matter) are supposed to be open for business at a certain time they are actually not so. Doors locked. No notice. No nothing. I took my business elsewhere. It may be awhile before I visit them again for Lunch. My time is precious.

I instead proceeded to Homestead’s # 1 place for Chinese Food, Fun, Music, and Authentic Kitchen Arguments In Chinese. Yes – You guessed it – It’s the Peking House !

I enjoyed a MASSIVE selection of Lunch items – all-you-can-eat-‘boofay’-style. It was all good. I walked away very happy … and full !

Today’s fortune cookie message is as cool as two of my former house cats (Fluffy and Boots):

‘Your maintain a sense of balance in the midst of great success.’

It’s grammatically incorrect; however, it’s right on the mark. But it hasn’t always been that way for me. I’ve had great success in the past (and couldn’t handle it effectively), and I’ve had great failures as well (and didn’t know how to get out of it). With God as my Director I can now deal with both success and failure appropriately. I’m learning from both scenarios. It’s not effective to dwell on either. It’s beneficial to constantly look forward and move forward on this journey – never accepting the status quo or what’s average. It’s all about doing what’s good and right – striving for success and not allowing failure to but the brakes on progress.

Starbucks On A New Year’s Day Morning

Starbucks Peppermint White Chocolate Mocha

PEPPERMINT WHITE CHOCOLATE MOCHA 

This beverage is a festive combination of our signature espresso and steamed milk with creamy white chocolate and lively peppermint flavors.

I also enjoyed the oven-toasted Sausage, Egg, & Cheddar Sandwich.

Starbucks – It’s what’s for breakfast !

Then our patented brewing process ensures every cup is consistently fresh and delicious. From start to finish, that’s Wendy’s Custom Bean. An exceptional cup of coffee every time.

It’s HOT. It’s Fresh. It’s Premium. It’s Delicious.

Delicious coffee starts at the bean. 100% Arabica beans. Slow roasted. Custom brewed. Wendy’s. That’s right.
