Does this count as fossil-esque?

Some geodes (not this one though) actually are fossilized crinoid heads. They're found in southern Indiana.

Geodes crystallizing for an infinite amount of time will eventually want cookies

The scientific way of writing "heh, looks like cookie monster lol"

I think the bottom pic must have had some special coockies considering the eyes.

I'll never be as happy as these two halves of geode

@Flocklesscrow @fossilesque or they have a crush for cookies, if you prefer.

This is how many years old? Not sure why it's being treated like news.

According to a combination of webpages, geodes can take anywhere from thousand to millions of years to form ... So you're right, this new isn't just old, it's geological.
