Andy's piece illustrates a memory submitted by Angela.
"Massive Chinese banquets punctuated my childhood in LA Chinatown in the 70’s.
I will never forget the sheer abundance of sights & sounds that comes to mind.
For a child, the word abundance wasn’t what I thought, I used to think it was a magic genie in the kitchen of these Chinatown restaurants, a cavernous din of lights, Cantopop music and chattering. Abundance of smells and fancy banquet dishes - everything gleaming, from shiny slicked back hair of older gentlemen to the sparkle of ice cubes in glasses.
Seen from my view (imagine 3 little girls all dressed alike b/c my mom sewed the dresses from fabric gleaned from the sewing factory) and my older sibs escaping from this b/c one was a boy and the eldest already a high schooler who could escape the tyranny of being dressed alike. The magic kitchen genie offered platter upon platter of food!"
From the artist:
I love imaginative stories with characters that exist beyond the realms of reality. After reading this story, I was immediately inspired by the magic kitchen genie that offered platter upon platter of food.
