This time of year always hits when I'm trying to get ready for the pool season!! I just can't say no because I was a girl scout for 10 years and I know how BAD it sucks to be standing outside those grocery stores!!!!

So what are you favorites??

    Thin mints, of course. I worked out tonight just so that I could have some! My plan is to send them in the kids lunches every day to get rid of them quicker and decrease my temptation.

    Those little Jezebels cornered me in the wal-mart parking lot. I was helpless. Like a little lamb. I couldn't defend myself...

    ... I left with a box of caramel delites, a box of thin mints, and a box of peanut butter sandwiches. BUT I took them to a party and only had one of each. So I was good.

    Samoas. Probably the worst ones for you. But soooooo good. Thin Mints are a close second. Gotta have both. I was a Girl Scout and I am a sucker for a good cause.

    Lol! I can't help but laugh. My friends daughter is a girl scout and every year we order like 10 boxes. My kids take them in there school lunches, but this week was rough and I wish I didn't have them in the house. I love the new Thank You Berry Much! And pretty much the rest of them as well.

    Yesterday, one of my friends said "the way into a girl's pants is a roll of thin mints." If he only knew how right he was! :laugh:



    I didn't even buy GS cookies this year because I know I can't resist them, but I'm usually all about the Samoas!

    I have 2 nieces that are girl scouts. Of course you have to buy the same amount from each.....so we have 20 boxes coming!!! My boyfriend is a mechanic at a dealership so the shop will have plenty to go around!

    my other half has the tag-a-longs (which are ALL gone BTW). i love the thin mints though and they are well hidden before he eats all of those too (not that I should complain about that).

    Oh man...I'm so excited but also dreading the day when my cookies come in. I think I bought 6 boxes this year: 2 Tag-A-Longs, 1 Lemon Chalet or whatever they're called, 1 Peanut butter sandwich cookie one, and 1 Thin Mint.

    I keep telling myself that I'm going to be good and only eat one every day. YEAH RIGHT! I'll just have to work out harder to accomodate my need. haha:happy:

    Last saturday right after my run I went to the grocery store to pick up some fruits and vegetables, and I saw the girl scouts set up and I was like OH NO!!! I knew I'd be buying cookies if they asked, b/c I used to be a girl scout, and I LOVE girl scout cookies. However, they didn't ask me if I wanted to buy any at all. Little did they know I would have probably bought some thin mints, peanut butter patties, and carmel delites! Yum. I guess they figured sweaty people in workout clothes didn't eat cookies!

    My wife always gets me a box of white fudge covered Oreo's for Christmas. I haven't even opened them yet. Talk about control!!! They are 100 calories per cookie.

    My son insisted on buying some the other day... I gave in and we came home with 4 boxes. I've had 2 cookies and I think there are 2 boxes left. So far so good! :smile:

    We always buy Caramel deLites, Thin Mints, and Peanut Butter Patties ~ the Caramel deLites are my personal favorites. I only bought one box of them this year & managed to ration them carefully. THAT is progress! :wink:

    I hate that they changed the names of the cookies. It kind of annoys me.....but I :heart: my do-si-do's and tag-a-longs. I resisted the samoas FOREVER until my BF made me try one and now I like those too which sucks because they totally are the worst ones for you!

    I Don't know but in my opinion. Nothing beats a good old homemade chocolate chip cookie. The girl scout cookies have nothing on those.

    I thought I was teh only one. My wodnerful Fiance brought home about 8 boxes the other day. I almost died!!! But so far so good. I have had some, but I always log the calories and try to keep it in moderation.
