Dates

 I have never in my life liked dates. Ever. And if you had offered me a platter full of, what looks like colossal roach egg sacs, I would have politely declined. And I consider myself an open minded eater. I'll try just about anything. Hello, I'm married to an Asian man who eats chicken feet and moving squid. Exactly. So when I opened my beautiful tin full of...these, I almost thought it was a joke. But I tried one. And LET ME TELL YOU. They are DELICIOUS! Like unbelievably delicious. I thought the only way I could eat dates were dried in my mueslix. Well no longer sister! 

You know you're getting old when you eat and like beets and dates. The end is near.
