Girl Scout Cookies

The samoa. All that caramel and coconut.
It's my favorite. What's yours?

I am always a sucker when people come selling girl scout cookies at the door. I never like to say "no" to the people that you know and Girl Scout Cookies are also really good! I got my usual order of samoas, thin mints, and lemon creams, and I also thought that I would try out the new dulce de leche's. Once I had placed my order of 5 boxes the little girl across the street came over too asking for orders. Not wanting to turn her away I ended up ordering another 2 boxes.
 I feel like I have spent every night since they have been delivered watching TV and eating a cookie (or 2 or 3!) I can't wait until they are gone so I can get back to a healthier lifestyle. Have you seen how many calories are in each one?!

The classic thin mint

I wish I lived in your neighborhood. I sometimes feel like Baltimore doesn't have any girl scouts, because I have been deprived for 5 years! I definitely agree with you, samoas are the greatest. Let me know how the new dulce de leches are!

Do we have to pick just one favorite?? I can't. It really depends on the day. I love samoas as well, and those thin mints are so tasty. But tagalongs have always been a favorite of mine. And then there's the trefoil -- do they even sell those anymore? So sappy but I always felt they didn't get the credit they deserved...when I was a girl scout I used to order anywhere between 5-10 boxes and hide them in my room...

Oh, I noticed your friend Serena Cherry making mention of Baltimore...if she's LDS she's in my parent's ward. (Ask her if she knows the Clovers...)

Um so it is embarrassing to admit because I think I'm just a fat person at heart but LOVE LOVE the thin mints. And have you tried thin mint ice cream? The pictures from school were fab.
