Description from Karokat: This pick is based on the colors and textures of the Chinese restaurant where my high school boyfriend took me on our very first date. It was a sort of upscale establishment, with a wonderful old-fashioned Chinese exterior, and lots of Chinese artifacts and decor elements that the owner had brought from Hong Kong and Taiwan. Too bad the restaurant is gone now.

Happy Chick aka Harriet says:Very pretty pick!!! I’m glad you have this nice memory.
Kind of sad so many of the old small family businesses are gone now to make room for more strip malls. We end up missing the individuality.
