I just had my first dried date ever (granted i've had a lot of "dry dates"...[insert elbow nudge-elbow nudge] [insert dodgy eye glance around the room seeking for verbal affirmation that everyone gets the joke] [insert future kids rolling eyes]).
one word: gross.
Like i just sucked on an old man's face that has been using tanning oil gross.
i now have another question to my list of great life questions to ask on the other side:"WHY WOULD ANYONE MAKE DRIED DATES?! WHY?!"
and then i will ask how many spoonfulls of sugar it really does take to get to china.
And THEN i'll ask if the pope really is catholic (i seem to get people asking me that a lot...like the other day when i said, "Do you think i should stop wearing my eurosuit" and my date responded, "Is the pope catholic?"...i didn't quite get it, but now i'm super curious)
Main point of this post--to prove that i write about things other than dates...like, for example--dates.

Figs, too. Figs are niz-asty. Fig Newtons and the four Gospels are the saving grace of figs. I guess the Gospels save everyone, though. But Fig Newtons do not save everyone. Probably because they contain figs.
ReplyDeleteAre those pictures of real dates? They look like donut holes. Just a little misshapen. And Josh, the Gospels only save everyone if they realize that "and here's the rest of the story" is in the Book of Mormon. :P
ReplyDelete:O you have no idea how wrong you are. Did you know that there are different kinds of dates (Medjool, Halwai, Deglet Noor, etc.)? They have different textures and flavors...
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry, but this is unacceptable. Go and try them again!!! :P
