Here in Saudi Arabia we're waiting for summer not because missing boiling heat but the time of our favourite fruit: dates. From July to September , stores , roads , supermarkets ..etc you see ripe dates everywhere . They 're in  two t coloures : yellow and red. How taste? all sweet. There are more than 30 kinds of dates  and in different regions and cities : Khulas ( it's in Ahssa city first place and you will find it in Kharj city ) Hulwah ( this is the most dilicious dates to me it's in Joaf region) . Mabroom ( it's known that comes from Madinah city but it's originally plants in Al-ULA city) .

 

Some of dates need to remain on the tree ( it's called : palm ) until they ripen and others it's ok if you pick them before ,  they will conutinue to ripen
