I've really got to learn to just do the damage and get out of town. It's the 'stay and gloat' that gets me every time.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, because I am a crazy person, I just went to check out the two bakeries and make sure my local is the one I thought, and it looks like Shout Outs were just for last year, and this year's new one is Mango Cremes with Nutrifusion (!?!?!). [link]

I say NO to that. That sounds.... awful. But I can still samoa you if you would like.

Thanks, but I think I can get by with Caramel DeLites. My coworker has a sign up, so I should buy from her.

The "wrong" names make me irrationally angry. I'm going to go up to some Girl Scouts on the street and yell "Two Samoas and one Trefoil!!!"

...and then I'll go to Starbucks and order a medium coffee.

HA! You should still buy from her. I was just going to send them because god knows I'll have them.

I can't believe ABC bakeries has two non-box cookies! Amazing!

The samoas can't be called samoas because it's trademarked by Little Brownie (which might be owned by a big corporation, maybe kelllog?)

Apparently I just think GS cookies should be a monopoly, like it was in the Good Old Days.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Oh MAN! There are two bakeries that bake Girl Scout cookies. The one that doesn't supply LA has Shout Outs, which taste like Biscoff, I've heard. Nom nom nom.

Yep. One of the bakeries has a few vegan flavors, and the other doesn't. Last year, I checked with something like five different friends with daughters in different parts of the country, and all of them were selling the non-vegan ones.

I can get the vegan ones if you want, Hil.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Also, girl scout cookie time is coming. FYI, if you want a girl scout fix, you can go download the cookie locater app and it will tell you where there is a cookie booth in your area. Nuts, right?

That is terrible information for me to have. Their peanut butter patties are unto crack for me. And I'm not a big peanut butter and chocolate kind of woman. But those just taste so good to me.
