If you open a fortune cookie and find a fortune like this, here’s a tip:
Don’t eat the cookie.

And don't forget to circle your mints. :)

Growing up on a farm in New Zealand, most of my days were spent exploring with my sisters and little brother; crawling under the shearing sheds, playing in abandoned farm vehicles we'd found, making forts out of hay bales, teasing the pigs, using ladders to climb from shed to shed, swimming in the creek, and racing our bikes through the mud. As long as we stuck together, were home in time for Tea, and didn't drag mud through the house, we could pretty much go were we pleased. One of our favorite pastimes was building dams across some of the smaller rivers, much to the downstream farmer's annoyance.

In winter we would collect pinecones while standing on the running boards of Dad's Model A truck. Dad would get me to drive the Nissan while he feed the sheep hay from the back of the truck. At school we would build massive snow forts and the lower school would take on the upper (who we out numbered).

When we moved to town, the best thing to do on a hot day was to have massive street-wide waterfight. There were guy on roofs with buckets, people running around with hoses (at least until they reached the end of them) and all the while our parents were yelling "take the fight outside!"
