    My Girl Scout cookies are coming this weekend and when I ordered them I didn't even think about it because EVERY year we order tons of them. I think I am going to steal your idea. I am going to take a serving (or two) out of every box we ordered and put them in the freezer for me , myself and I because I know if I don't do this they will be gone before I get any. My kids and husband will eat at least one box or more by themselves in one sitting :frown:
    that is exactly like it was when I lived with my family. I think I developed poor eating habits because If I didn't get it when I first saw it, I didn't get it at all.

    I would just donate the full box value to the troop --this way they make more money, and you get less calories - LOL
    no way! I need a little treat every once in a while or I'll break big time.

    That is pretty good. Cookies (and so many other snack foods are my nemesis) are about the worst for me. I haven't bought any for a couple of weeks, that's one thing that I can't help binging on...

    And I'd watch out for those girl guides. They seem sneaky to me...
