Damn Cookies

posted almost 2 years ago | Report

My daughter's in her second year of brownies ... these damn cookies are killing me.
Too much temptation.

  • I think that 13 years of working as a volunteer in GS (my youngest daughter was in from Daisies to Seniors (I was one of the Troop Leaders from Cadettes to Seniors)) was one of the sources of the far too many pounds I carried around.

    Thin mints were/are my downfall... the Samoas are not my favorite (but Caramel Delights are pretty good). Another I like is Animal Treasures, much better than "All Abouts".

    Ah... those were fun days...

  • Good morning, Thanks Bo & Nicole -
    I know what we can do w/ these cookies ... let's start something similar to the Krispy Kreme Challenge (www.krispykremechallenge.com) in Raleigh.
    lol ... can you imagine the mess on the course after the half-way point?

    Great Idea. I would race the 5k, and run it backwards as my cool down to always get an extra box of cookies, lol. God Bless "You and You-Family" is My Prayer...+ JJ. ( =

  • Yup...it takes all of my willpower not to yell "LEAVE ME ALONE" at the sweet girl scouts selling outside my grocery store! Once, they were even offering samples...darn them...

  • What gets me is I think "It's only once a year." But did you know they freeze really well? You can buys lots of boxes and freeze them for months. I love Thin Mints and Tagalongs.
