I had two dates tonight

They were large, brown, and wrinkled. They were a week old or so, but they were still reasonably fresh, however fresh a dried date can be. They tasted soooooo very good, and the seeds (pits?) are sitting on the table. Have you ever noticed how large date seeds can get? Also that their shells are half-dark, half-light? It's really weird.

What's that look for? What did you think I was talking about when I had two dates?
