"Long noodles mean long life"


David and I decided to eat at P.F. Chang's when we were in Indy on Saturday. He found a new favorite -- lo mein noodles. We just read a book from the library called Orange Peel's Pocket. It's the story of a little girl who was born in China and now lives in America, and her classmates in school want to know more about China. David asked to read the book at least once a day, and we ended up ordering our own copy for home last week. One of the lines in the book is "long noodles mean long life," so I think David was glad to have noodles for supper, just like the girl in the story.

David even figured out how to eat noodles with chopsticks. Several people were watching him eat -- he actually is pretty talented with chopsticks and I was impressed that he figured out how to wrap the noodles around the chopsticks to get them to his mouth. Do I think that David is good with chopsticks because he's Asian? No. David's always had great fine motor skills. I trust the people watching had the same thought. :-)
