TQUAD64 9 Posted February 3, 2009 I know, I know, I can do this. After all, I survived Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years Eve, and the Super Bowl with my new Band. But when I saw the billboard today that said, "The Girls Scout Cookies are Coming" it freaked me out. :tongue: OMG, my favorites are coming back. :thumbup: You think I'm crazy don't you? But I love those darn cookies and they are only here once a year. It is going to take all my Band will power and the support of my LBT buddies to get me through this.

irishgal 0 Posted February 3, 2009 I used to buy the Trefoils, freeze them, then eat a sleeve of frozen Cookies. The Thin Mints are just as delicious frozen. Yum. This year, I purchased cookies and then checked the option to donate the cookies to the food bank. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are putting less cookies in each box this year so you will get less calories per box at least!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BillOh 13 Posted February 3, 2009 Well, I plan on making the thin mints I bought last several weeks in stead of finishing them off in days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TQUAD64 9 Posted February 3, 2009 sigh. I am a girlscout co-leader and I am about to be in cookie HELL OMG how will you ever do that? I love supporting Girl Scouts, their programs rock! Those Cookies rock! I just have to be strong and not consume a whole box in one sitting like my pre-band days. I don't think I can physically eat a whole box now that I am banded, but ohhhh the temptation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
luluc 6 Posted February 3, 2009 i bought the one box that i can do w/out (hubby's fav) - thin mints. in the freezer; he calls them his junior mint Cookies.< /p> i'm not a cookie person, but if the girl scouts got in the chip business - they have a customer for life!

CSBinABQ 0 Posted February 3, 2009 They are a killer, especially the classics, the thin mints and the plain sugar kind. I can't resist buying them from those cute little girls, but now have an outlet for eating them. I send them to the troops in Iraq or Afganistan. You wouldn't believe how well recieved the Cookies are by the troops AND the locals. It feels even better than eating them to give them away to a just cause!

I intend on eating a box of Cookies with my kiddos. One day of junk food wont hurt me at all. Might give me a tummy ache, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
