I like them, even though they are expensive.

When I was a Leader the money we received from the sale was welcomed. It allowed the girls to have many fun experiences that they normaly might not have had.

I encourage all young girls to give Scouting a try.

That's either a glandular problem or child abuse!

Sheesh, all this could have been avoided if she had just soaked the cookies in gin then eaten them.

Ah!

Gin soaked girl scout cookies -- the Teresa Heinz Kerry snack of choice.

Thin Mints are benign supreme dictator and overlord of all other cookies. No other cookie is worthy of being in the same pantry. One should speak of the mighty Thin Mint only in reverent tones.

Guns don't kill people, Girl Scouts do.

What would you soak those in, Bacardi's Limon or Mint Gin?

It's been many, MANY, years, but back in the day my family used to buy Girl Scout cookies right on our own doorstep.

I liked the thin mints best and we always got at least 3 boxes of those.

I would pig out and go into a chocolate-mint coma.

I will be 50 this year and it hasn't killed me yet! :)

I just ate three Peanut Butter Patties so I can say with some authority that more cookies do indeed make the world a better place.

That would make a great title for a Grade-Z horror film.

Somehow I don't see "Girl Scout Sliced Carrots and Celery Sticks" reaching the $700 million mark.

You can’t trust anyone nowadays.

Last week I bought a .45 from a girl, who said that GS stood for Gun Sales, and this morning some Bombay from another, who assured me it meant Gin Service.

I couldn't imagine mixing mint cookies with tonic.

Hey, Mama! How many boxes of "Cold Death" do you & your Troop have left to sell?

ROFLMAO!

Sure hope "Enforcer Roth" doesn't find out I baked a "Queen of Sheba Torte" yesterday for husbands birthday today. It has as many calories as 10 or so boxes of those "diet" Girl Scout Cookies, LOL!

Take my cake pans? Out of my cold, dead hands, you Food Gnatzie!

But of course, more cookies do make the world a better place

It is my contention that the world would be a much more peaceful place if we all had a daily cookie and milk break.

How can you be upset with a plate of warm chocolate chip cookies in front of you?

I need Girl Scout Cookies like I need a hole in the head. What I do whenever I pass a troop selling cookies is to give them a $1 donation. It turns out that the troop gets to keep 100% of a donation, but gets just a few cents for every box of cookies they sell. So my $1 donation is cheaper for me, healthier for me, and helps the troop more. Win, win, win.

"She also hosts the Wedding Gown Challenge, which encourages women to do annual checks to make sure that they still fit into their wedding gowns..."

What a Target-Rich Environment this woman provides!

If you marry a man shallow enough to expect that you're always going to look as you do on your Wedding Day, you're going to have more problems with HIM, than with your Wedding Dress, Honey!

As if all of our husbands can still fit into their Prom Tuxes or Military Uniforms! ROFLMAO!
