Do you still have girl scout cookies in your freezer?
I do. Thin mints, to be exact, and probably two years old. They taste fine, which further bolsters my theory that they have no organic ingredients. Ironically, we've ordered another round of cookie-boxes from the gamut of acquaintences who have all guilted us into it. Cookie monster would be damn proud.

So, if they're so delectable, why don't we eat them all? Apparently we don't, and they remain as permanent leftovers in the dark corners of the icebox. Somehow when we throw out the freezer-burned tater tots or the 2-for-1 chicken breasts we bought back in June, the narrow green boxes just keep getting overlooked, neither eaten nor expelled.

I'm taking them out for christmas next year. I'll put a dollop of frosting on them and no one will know. Gotta get rid of them somehow.

2. What are thin mints doing in your house NOT being eaten?
Those things are better than sex.

10. That pretty well describes my sentiments
A box (or two) of thin mints, some vanilla ice cream, a good coffee, black. And either a good book, (much less likely) something decent to watch on TV. What more is there??

4. Wow! You have some willpower!
Those damned cookies wouldn't last a few days in my place. It feels weird having to avoid the girl scouts, but dammit, if I don't I'll be back at 300 lbs. again.

6. They have a new lemon cookie this year
It's low fat and low calorie. In moderation, it's all good. :D

9. Mmmmmmm....Thin mints!
I'm ashamed to admit that I once ate a whole box of thin mints on a trip from college to home. The trip was a little over one hour. What a pig. I couldn't stop myself. Does that make me a bad person? I think not.
