thanks for the link, Tiffany!
The yellow and green is very Girl Scouts circa 1980. I'm looking at it, and I'm thinking, "Two peanut butter patties, one thin mints."
Which means, of course, you have to go with the yellow.

So uncruel, so unjust, so...so...wrong.
Annnnyway, the tshirt is cute and I must buy it asap.

it's all about the Tag-a-longs for me :). yum!
i did go with the yellow as it turns out. it'll be like my bat signal for other GG fans.

And yes, how awful is that? They're girl scouts they sell cookies that's just...how...its supposed to work!
Tag a longs used to be called something else. Caramel Delights?
Ever notice how small the box of peanut butter patties was. Easily covered in one sitting.

Thin Mints are particularly good when frozen btw.
Oh! I didn't realize they changed the name of PBP. Why mess with perfection? SAMOAS are awesome, too. When's cookie season?

i was just looking at wikipedia and apparently the name of the PB Patty is different depending where you live. wonder how they determine what to call it where.
THIN MINTS - THIN MINTS - THIN MINTS...
I was just chanting in hope that it would bring the girls around faster. Yum-yum-yum-yum-yum!!!
I enjoy them frozen or regular. Regular the flavor dissolves and multiplies in your mouth, whereas frozen it's more direct and, well, POW! If one way could cause me to slow down in my eating of them, I'd choose that way. They are the most addictive substance known to man, I'm telling you.

What are these do-si-do's, of which you speak? I don't think we changed the names down South. We like to keep things the way they always have been. It's in our blood. Or maybe it's just been a while since I bought GS cookies.
PBP/TA and a tall glass of cold milk. Now that's a snack. Michelle: Have you tried the Thin Mints?

Speaking of salivating and food, I had a dream Friday night about Chex Mix. How insane is that? All day Saturday I was working and doing stuff and miserably ill and just thinking 'hot damn I want some Chex Mix', I finally got some around 11pm and it was the happiest two moments of my day. How pathetic is that? And what's even worse, is that I actually really enjoyed my day...
I think I have an obsession with food. The end of pointless comment.
Haha. O.K., the Girl Scouts of America owe Good Reads a big one this year! I say we ask for free cookies.

Oh, and thanks for finding the t-shirt! So cute. I think she's looking, not at a book, however. I think she's eyeing a box of thin mints. Frozen ones.
Sniff.

Taking orders only though -- in-your-face booth sales start middle of February.
(Yeah, the nut sale happens in the fall. I'm a Troop Leader, and that's all we hear -- "But where are the COOKIES????" LOL)
I must get me some of this Reading Is Sexy shirt.
Woohoo! The Girl Scouts just came to my door! I'm such a happy campers. I told them to come back when my parents were about, though, as they'd sell much, much more than with me alone! They're coming back in about an hour. LOL
Quit bragging. (haha)
Seriously, my mouth is watering especially since I am on a "diet." Just do me a favor and have a peanut butter pattie or two with a glass of cold milk. And think of me.

Um. We only got the peanut butter sandwiches, not the patties. Sorry! Now I'm regretting it! But eleven boxes!

BTW, the Cinnaswirls are geared toward the diet set -- 5 100-calorie packs per box. But darn if they aren't extremely tasty too!
Thin mints... thin mints... thin mints...

Last night, I discovered the "Thank you" cookies, which are, I believe, supposed to be traditional English biscuits with Chocolate on one side. While the texture is not completely like the actual English biscuits, I love them. Love them. Love them. And had several while reading NA last night (read half box). So I may have to make a SECOND girl scout order this year. Nuts!
Haha. Love how you said healthy in regard to size rather than to actual "health." Did you really need to clarify with this group? (haha) :)
Ooooo! Courtney, I ordered the Thank yous! But they are supposed to be shortbread rather than the regular English biscuits. Which appeals to me all the more! Yea!
Great, now my mouth is watering. Sigh. What can I snack on at this hour??

They are totally yummy. I am going to order more from the woman in my office because they might be the only GS cookie I could eat a few of and stop. They are seriously delicious.
Half of my cookie order arrived today! (We ordered from two Scouts from the same troupe that were selling together.) Woo-hoo! I tried a Thank You, but wasn't all that impressed... Courtney, you are so right - not at all shortbread. They are alright, but the Lemonades are much more addicting! My favorites haven't arrived yet - THIN MINTS THIN MINTS THIN MINTS... Hee!

I saw a link to these a couple of months ago on USA Today's Pop Candy and it was talking about GG girls. I searched for it this morning and found it. I think they are so cute! BTW, I am not trying to solicit, because I have nothing to do with the sales of these. I just think they are super cute!
