Don't let the innocent looking child on the box fool you... she knows what she is doing... she is exploiting my weakness in order to earn..what? an extra badge on her vest?!
Ok ok i'm sure the girl scouts use the proceeds from thier cookies to promote something akin to womens right or awesome camping trips- which i am thankful to give to....but i'm not sure my hips will be thanking those little girls anytime soon...
As i stated in my last post my husband (being from another country) had never heard of girl scout cookies...my husband, forgetting that I, myself ordered 5 boxes from a co-workers daughter, comes back from Huey's with a surprise... actually 4 boxes of surprises...the little girls clad in uniforms were "innocently" selling in front of the restaurant and tez couldn't resist he HAD to try the cookies i was telling him about.
I must admit, I LOVE experiencing things vicariously through people- going so far as wanting to watch a movie (that i have already seen) with a friend or my parents or whoever i think will enjoy the movie just to see if they like it like i think they will... which leads to me renting the movie for them and creepily spending the whole movie pretty much watching how that person reacts to the movie more than actually watching the movie itself...
So i admit the glee i had in opening the small (but deadly) box of cookies. Seeing Tezar embellish in his first Thin Mint and tell me that I was right about them WAS worth it.... UNTIL we practically consumed all 4 boxes within that one hour....
ok...i kidd... but the truth is I'm not sure the boxes made it through the week... upon the consumption of those four boxes i get a text saying that the 5 boxes i had previously ordered were ready for pickup....
heaven help us all....
you could freeze them!!
ReplyDeleteoooor eat them all immediately.
I see your dilemma. Best of luck ;)
