nizo's Journal: Where did all the girl scout cookies go?

So I just realized that the box of thin mints sitting on my desk is empty. I kinda recall tossing a few in my mouth, but I realized that I simply scarfed them down without enjoying each and every bite. How very sad this is.

Now I may be forced to go door-to-door, hoping to find a girl scout willing to sell me more cookies.

Someone needs to make a game about this

Trapping Girl Scouts

Or you could set a trap, using a merit badge or cookie order form and a snare or pit. Works for me. ;)

Mmmm...

I can't wait until my shipment of 10 boxes arrives.

If I have them in 39.5 days when my Catholic stint is done, I can even have some then!

Just out of curiousity...which bakery made your cookies?

Re:Mmmm...

[nizo]

Little Brownie Bakers
Louisville, KY

I assumed they all came from the same place, but maybe not?

Re:Mmmm...

[Some Woman]

There are two: Little Brownie Bakers and ABC Bakers. If you have a crappy Girl Scout cookie, it came from ABC. People who say that ABC makes good cookies have never had a Little Brownie cookie.

Re:Mmmm...

Thats because they use real Brownies [girlscouts.org] in their cookies.

It seems

that sadly, since Roe v Wade the number of girl scouts available to make deliveries has dropped off substantially.

Every time my SO asks if I want some girl scout cookies I ask if they are made from real girl scouts. If I wear her down I know she will laugh at this eventually.

blah.

Is this why brownies are better?

I am the proud owner of 2 cases (24 boxes) of GS cookies. One case alone is JUST Thin Mints.

I got them 1 week ago Thursday, and am pleased to say that I have not finished ONE box yet! (Of course... let's just ignore the fact that I made chocolate cake Saturday night, shall we?)

Have you tried using crumbled thin mints as a cheesecake crust? It's gooooooood.

I feel sorta guilty thinking this...

[dexterpexter]

...but I have to admit that I have considered making knock-off Girl Scout cookies and offering them online. (And maybe a smaller version for office vending machines.)

But think of the poor Girl Scounts.

To keep from having to stalk girl scouts...

[IamBMETammy]

You could see if your local grocery store stocks these cookies [kelloggs.com]. You don't get the joy of helping a little girl but you do get a chocolate mint cookie.

From The Addams Family (the movie):

"That doesn't look like lemonade to *me* - is it made from *real* lemons?"

"Are your Girl Scout cookies made from real Girl Scouts?"

[nizo]

Heh, that is probably where my brain got all this from. I really need to go back and watch that movie again sometime.
