The Danger of Girl Scout Cookies

This year my daughter is selling these. My wife took the job of picking them all up for the troop and distributing them. Which left us with about 20 cases for the girls to sell at tables outside of stores.
They will never make it. My wife and daughter are sneaks. They know I cannot resist Samoas. Been my favorite cookie since before time began. There are two cases, twenty four boxes of 14 cookies each. Just waiting to be brought to a table sale, or paid for by my wallet. I should just give in now and buy the two cases. No use in putting off the inevitable.

Been through the same thing years ago when my daughters were young and my wife was a girl scout leader. Last night my wife brought home 6 boxes. My favorites are the thin mints which I have in my brief case as we speak. Soon time for new belt shopping.

I just bought a box of the new cranberry girl scout cookies from our local troop. Expensive box of cookies but it is for a good cause. Ate the whole box in a couple of hours. They were very good and I would have bought more but I have to save so I can purchase this new game.

You do realise that you both now suport oranaized crime, in the 20s it was booze, now it's cookies.
Half the boxes are actual cookies, the rest are cocaine. they have secret signs, so when a guys makes the sign, the girlscouts give him the "special" cookies. he then gives the "cookies" to dealers in the bad neighborhoods.
So don't suport them, you only make criminals out of them
Today you bail them out by buying cookies, in 10 years you can't bail them out as the bail is set for $500 000 becasuse they have been indited on a dozen chagres of drug traficing and destribruating

They know I cannot resist Samoas
Which cookie are those? Are they the cookie that has chocolate, caramel, and coconut?
It's been a while since I've had one, and I can't remember what they are called.
They are my favorite Girl Scout cookie, Thin Mints are second.

After what I have had in my haversack between 1981 and 2008 I'd be afraid to put real food in there.

Recipe for Girl Scout cookie soup:
Ingredients:
One sleeve of Trefoils crunched up
Milk to taste
Add the crunched up cookies to a bowl. Add milk to taste.
Microwave until warm. Stir well but not too much.
Top with one scoop of vanilla ice cream, (optional).
Add strawberries/bananas/peaches/blueberries etc. if you feel the need to justify eating this dish. That should make you feel better about it.
Enjoy,
