My unmentionables are always bunched.

dulce de leche means candy of milk?
I once saw a girl wearing a very tight T shirt with dulce de leche printed large right across her breasts and I asked her why she had italian for “two of milk” on her boobs.
She got mad and said it doesn’t mean “two of milk”, it means “very sweet”.
I just laughed at her and said, “no, it doesn’t”. But apparently, I had it wrong too.
“as long as they continue to sell Thin MInts I don’t care what they call them!”
Those and Tagalogs, or whatever they call them now.
God forbid we’d eat food that doesn’t have an english name.
Excuse me, but that would be "Healthily-sized Mints" and "Stout Pacific-Islanders"...
I think it’s italian, not spanish. And It’s a very popular ice cream flavor.
I wish Spanish had been offered back when I was in school (the 70’s).
German (what little I retained) helps me personally very little. Even here in PA Dutch country.
If these girls learn a second language through the Scouting program, good on ‘em!
The word for that is "prejudice" or "bias."
I was having my cappuccino and a croissant wondering whether or not to have some french toast or an omelet. I decided to pass and wait until the luncheon special of a taco and burrito was available, being mindful that my wife was making penne arrabiata and a caesar for dinner.

Wes Luger: “No wonder I couldn’t eat just one.”

One cookie, one sign, one hero, one tradition till you wake up one day and wonder where all our culture and heritage went.
I still think that studying another language is part of any well-rounded education and it’s required for admission by virtually every college out there. Why shouldn’t Girl Scouts learn a little Spanish?
I had 2 weeks of german. Couldn’t make sense of any of it. I can read german and figure out the basic idea. But the spoken german language might as well be martian to me.
3 years of french. French is way easier to pick up.
Learning languages is excellent for the brain. ;-)
That's why I stay away from the fudge striped ones.
Give me your Thin Mints, your Samoas,
Your Do-si-dos yearning to be eaten,
The Dulce de Leche of your teeming shore.
Send these, the Tagalongs, milk-dunk to me,
I lift my plate beside the pantry door!
If only they could learn math, English, reading, geography and history, I'd be a happy camper. I'm sick of the ignorance I find myself surrounded by in any trip to the grocery store.
Yeah, that what this is all about a”well rounded education” Might as well have the Girl Scouts do ti cause Lord knows the schools aren’t. Hey we can get Home Depot and Lowe’s and almost every store in the country to help as well. Our schools can join in and hey even government documents. Maybe get our TV & radio stations and hell why not just change over to Spanish anyway as most of of consumers,workers & voters speak it anyway.
A well rounded education indeed! Sounds like you can use one.
