My BF brought home a box of Thin Mints yesterday....mmmmm...
I was a Girl Scout for 7 years. I always though cookie season was in the fall, but maybe that's just the Northeast? Or have things changed? I miss selling tons and tons of cookies to myself.

There is a new flavor of ice cream out by Edy's (I think that's the name)--it's samoa girl scout cookie flavor--limited edition. I had some last night and it's really good. If you like the GS samoa's cookies, you should check it out. They also had another flavor of girl scout cookies but I didn't recognize it. I was looking for one with thin mints but I'm not sure there is such a thing. Anyway, the samoa flavor is really yummy!

AHHH!! The ice cream is evil!! I can eat a whole carton. They have the Samoas, the Thin Mints (light and full fat), and they have the Peanut Butter ones (I forgot the name of the cookie). I just press my nose against the freezer door and drool, but if I bought one, that whole carton would be gone in 2 days....
oh man ice cream! I wanna try some!! I've been in an ice cream mood lately. Went to Wendy's twice last tuesday for a frostee. Getting Gelatto this weekend... yumm...
Mmmm...Girl Scout ice cream. I remember when I first saw the Thin Mint ice cream and I begged and begged my mom to buy it. My brother and I ate the carton within three days. And then we moved on to Samoas ice cream and then the Peanut Butter Patties ice cream...oh my gosh...I now have a sick craving for ice cream.
Mar. 19 (ABC7) — It's that time of year when Girl Scouts in the Bay Area and across America raise money by selling cookies. But the tradition is coming under fire because of health concerns over obesity.
Critics say the cookies are made with trans fats, which can elevate bad cholesterol and increase the risk of heart disease.
Michael Jacobson, Center For Science in the Public Interest: "Ideally, the girls would be selling products that don't undermine their customers' health, the kids' health; whether it's healthier foods, or key chains, or whatever."
Kathy Cloninger, CEO, Girl Scouts of America: "Balanced, healthy living is not about denial. If occasionally, a girl wants to have a treat, or our public wants to have a treat, we believe that the Girl Scout cookie is one of the most delicious."
Scout leaders say the cookie sales teach girls about marketing and money management.

Nooooo!!!! They cannot stop selling girl scout cookies! Sure they are fattening, but they are loved by everyone and only come around a couple times a year! You can't even buy them in the store. Can't they just make an Atkins-friendly cookie for dieters to buy and call it a day? Does every little thing have to be protested against and made into some huge, miserable issue? Is nothing sacred?
