The Girl Scout Cookies are here! The Girl Scout Cookies are here! Our office is all atwitter.
Two people here sold cookies – one of the attorneys and one of the staff. My cookies were brought in on Monday by the attorney. Everyone who ordered from the staff person got theirs today. I exercised self-restraint this year (some may recall the year I bought an entire case of cookies). I bought three boxes from the attorney – 1 box of thin mints, 2 boxes of samoas. This weekend when I was out grocery shopping I also bought a box of samoas because I didn’t know then that the attorney’s cookies had arrived. And over the weekend I also bought a box of do-si-dos for Denis, who made the claim he’d give them another shot if the TransFats (all that tasty goodness) was still in the cookie.
He found some article that implied that TransFat was still there, which is why I bought the box. But upon further reading, he believes that the TransFat is still in the cookies, but in extremely low quantities. Effectively rendering the cookies horrible (last year we realized that the no-transfat was NOT the way GSCs should go if they wanted to keep us as customers). However, the samoas and thin mints were not adversely affected like every other kind of GSC out there in the world. So YAY for Girl Scout Cookies!
I remember that case of cookies!
I love your title! I wonder if anyone else caught the reference? I sure did! One of my favorites!

Oh.my.goodness! Samoas!!!! I so love them, but didn’t order any this year. I can’t be reasonable about them. One year I actually ate an entire box on the way home from work.
