Girl Scouts: A pregnant woman's dealer

LiveNLove44

Holy smokes. This is my second time through this (DD is 18 months), and those Girl Scouts and their delicious cookies get me every damn time! DH and I are really active and live a healthy lifestyle. SO I eat well and exercise regularly, but those delectable morsels are my achilles heel! If I were alone long enough with a box of Thin Mints, I'm fairly certain I could manage to take down the whole lot of 'em. Does anyone else have a guilty pleasure they've given into once or twice...? I hope someone will be raising a glass of milk (and cookies) with me!

Reading this cracked me up! If only the girl guides would venture out to my house, I'd be happy to devour some mint thins!

Oh sweet cookies. I shamefully have a box of thin mints in my freezer still from last year. But they are still delicious!!!

My husband managed to down two whole boxes this weekend. Better him than me!

Mannnnnnn I got suckered too, but I got sense enough to eat a few every now and then. #funnypost

You guys: emergency. My friend who has two little girls in Girl Scouts said- and I kid you not- that there is a NATIONAL shortage of Girl Scout cookies this year. They are literally baking around the clock to try and keep up. I guess it's because this is the first year they did online sales... Anyway the point is- I'm gonna buy more cookies the next time I see the table set up at the grocery store- and start hoarding!!!

I ordered girl scout cookies over a month ago, way before I knew I was pregnant. I now have one of my boxes of thin mints in the freezer so in a couple months when I am really craving them they are there. Haha.

@lanaloulittle, good call on the freezer. I think I'll have to keep a box in my neighbor's freezer if I'm being honest with myself.

C'mon people, we all know samoas are where it's at, not thin mints.
I order five boxes from my coworker a while back and I should be getting them soon! 3 samoas, 1 PB cookie and 1 thin mint for my mom. I can't wait to get them!!

We already went through the Samoas... But I am not a big coconut fan. I am all about the trefoils.

Do-so-dos (the peanut butter sandwiches) are a great morning sickness cure! I ate one or two at work every few hours until I ran out.

Omg I have been looking for some for the past 2 weeks I want Samoas, thin mints, and the peanut butter ones too. I want two of each and I don't want to share.

Why haven't I seen any girl scouts! I keep hearing about how this is the cookie season and I have YET to see a single girl scout, let alone a box of cookies... or 10. Maybe that's for the best. Ever seen Despicable Me? Vector? With the cookie order? Yup, that would be me about now... But seriously, this prego mama just wants some Samoas and frozen Thin Mints. You heard me-- Frozen. Thin. Mints. 

LiveNLove44

You people and your frozen Thin Mints. Wild women. Just wild. I am pretty sure that Samoas and Caramel DeLites are the same thing, so I am on board with those, too! I restrained myself and only have one box of TMs and one of CDs, but now that you mention it, those peanut butter patties are sounding pretty good...

@dchiapella @ganab3 If you use this link you can put in your zip code to find where cookies are in your area

This post made me laugh.

And here to settle any further debate is the 'definitive' ranking of GS Cookies:

@CaitLewis15, I knew I had good taste! haha, I love that link! Thanks! Ever since I was a Girl Scout, I have ALWAYS preferred Thin Mints, Caramel DeLights (Samoas), and Peanut Butter Patties (Tagalongs). I don't know how the shortbread cookies are able to sneak in to that number three spot, but I'll assume it's all of the dads who'd order so they'd have something to dip in their coffee. At least that's what my dad did! I am still toying with the idea of freezing a Thin Mint just to see what all the hubub is about. We'll see if they make it to the freezer...

Lol! This is hilarious!!

amandagrider

I'm a troop leader and have access to them 24/7!!! Ahhhh not good X_X

JennyH78

Oh, Tagalongs! Lol...

The new cookie, Rah Rah Raisin, is the only thing I can tolerate first thing in the morning these days. I recently ordered another box from a friend at work. I justify it by saying that I'm at least eating breakfast!

I downloaded the app to find your local girl scout locations yesterday, and sent hubby on an adventure....we just missed them! So we went back to Lowe's today to get some, hubby said the excitement on my face was priceless when I saw they were there. I'm with you, thin mints all the way!

This just in: a new delicious way to eat Caramel Delights (or Samoas, for those of you in whatever area where that's what they're called)!

Place the delicious, caramel, chocolate, and coconut goodness on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave for about 10 seconds (you're better off erring on the side of under- than over-doing it!).

ENJOY! (with a fork, for heaven's sake, we aren't animals)
