That's right folks, it's that time of year again. You know...It's been just long enough for everyone to give up on their New Years resolution to lose weight, What does that mean? Oh yeah baby- it's Girl Scout cookie time! (You will never convince me that they don't do that on purpose.)I will openly admit that I have ZERO willpower to resist a Thin Mint. My only hope is to simply NOT buy them. No problem, right? Wrong! Why? Because I'm a sucker for other peoples kids begging for money. That look when you tell them "No thanks" gets me EVERY time!! It's the same look that cashiers give you when you don't want to buy a $1 Children's Miracle Network balloon at Wal-Mart...The "What if it were your child, you selfish woman" look.
Last year we ate so many girl scout cookies that I couldn't eat anything with mint in it for about 6 months. This year, I swore that I was just going to take a hard line and not buy any!! No such luck. Chris came home for lunch today with 6 freaking boxes!!! I told him that he was going to have to take them back to work and ration them out to me. He said, "Hey! I almost ordered a whole case for you. Consider yourself lucky."
