girl scout cookies

I was going to be good today, and brought no snacks to work except an apple.  Then my coworker brought me the two boxes of girl scout cookies I had ordered from his daughter... oh man.  I can't decide between the peanut butter patties or the peanut butter sandwiches (what happened to tagalongs and do-si-dos???)

Re: girl scout cookies

  • One of the benefits of not having been in an office for a while is not ordering GS cookies this year.... (benefit? curse? I can't decide!)
    I'd rather be rock climbing or playing volleyball

    Definitely a curse!

    So, I opened both and the tagalongs are winning.  What's weird is that we also ordered cookies from one of my H's coworkers, and he brought them home last night, and the do-si-dos from my H were way better than the ones I have here today.  Disappointing. 

  • You're deciding between chocolate or not. That shouldn't even be a question.

    Tagalongs!!

    With a side of Thin Mints of course.

  • My favorite are the caramel delites/samoas.

    Some girls have been at the T station. It's very hard to walk by. Thankfully I hardly ever have cash.

    Agreed! Man, now I want some girl scout cookies. And am I weird or does anyone else freeze their's?

  • Love Carmel Delights!  My H likes to freeze the thin mints.

    I just stuck a sleeve of thin mints in the freezer last night!  I think those freeze the best, although I think I have done it with the other types too.  It's nice to find them on a random day when you are digging for a snack.

    DH freezes his Reece's cups.

    I ordered 4 boxes from my students.  (I was a bad wifey and only thought of myself. I forgot to buy any thin mints or samoas for dh.)

    I don't freeze mine but I do put them in the fridge.

    I freeze almond M&M's too.

  • I bought a box this weekend from some little girls at the grocery store and they looked at me like I was nuts when I asked for tagalongs. One of the moms there told me they were the same but with a new name but I swear the peanut butter is not nearly as good :)

     I freeze mine! Really just the thin mints though. Have you ever tried them crumbled up in vanilla ice cream? MMMMM. Samoas are my second fav. Oh I need to hunt down some girls haha.

  • They always come in the week one starts a diet, don't they? 

    My faves are the thin mints and samoas (or whatever they're calling them these days).  There's one girl here with a girl scout and somehow the sign-up list got by me this year, which is fine with me...but one of my co-workers gave me a box of thin mints...so I've been limiting myself to 2 per day or none at all...they're 38 calories a piece, which isn't bad compared to the other cookies.  I had one peanut butter one last week and that was good, but they're all gone now...don't know how many calories that was because I just started counting...

  • Frozen thin mints and tagalongs are the bees knees.

    My DH would definitely agree with you, but he freezes almost all his candy.

    There were some girl scouts in the Student Union today, even though its Ash Wednesday I couldn't turn them down, I brought them into the office.
