I have three sons.
One day, I hope to have three daughters-in-law. And I would hope that those daughters-in-law would have been Girl Scouts.
So it seems reasonable that I would be a person who would gladly buy Girl Scout cookies, doesn't it?
Ten boxes seems pretty reasonable, don't you think?
That's a great opening line when you meet your future daughter-in-law. "So, were you a Girl Scout?" ;) I love the Samoas!!! Soooo glad no one has tried to sell me any this year. (PS. My mom made me be a GS, and I HATED selling the cookies b/c I was so painfully shy. I made my little sister--3 years younger than me--do all the talking) :s
ReplyDeleteI love Thin Mints but can no longer bring them into the house or else I will eat them all!!! This is a dangerous time of year!
ReplyDeleteThin Mints are my favorite! I am not buying any this year though because I've been known to polish off a whole box in one sitting. That's awful. haha
ReplyDeleteoh yes, i think that ten is reasonable. but what does that make my 12? laura sold cookies for years and years... but is no longer a girl scout. but our neighbors are!
ReplyDeletei have a strict rule about girl scout cookies :) the girl has to ask me (not the mom!) and i will buy at least one box. i had to start this rule when i was working at the elementary school... i can't bear to say no to one of them who has the courage to ask, and that first year i ended up with far more than the reasonable number! i'm not sure i even have a favorite...
Yum yum. I will be over this afternoon. :)
ReplyDeleteVery reasonable. But I don't have any kids yet, so I can't use the daughter-in-law card just yet. Do you have any other ideas how I can explain a reasonable contribution of say 5 or 50 boxes of Thin MInts?
ReplyDeleteThose are EXACTLY the ones our family chooses as well! Reasonable indeed!
ReplyDeleteIs it that time of year already? Oh yum!
ReplyDeleteI once went through a whole box of Samoas in one sitting. I didn't know I had it in me, kind of just happened. That was back in my college days when I also ate icing for fun. I miss those eat what I want and not gain a pound days. Still though, Samoas are my fave.
ReplyDelete:)) 10 Boxes reasonable?? Well, it depends on if the recipients/consumers will notice and/or be content with 2 boxes each....or if they will 'notice' that they've been eaten during the 6 weeks that Will is tenting and can't get to them. :)) And it might be a good ice breaker when you meet those future daughters-in-law. Funny! Eat a thin mint for me...we ate ours already!
ReplyDeleteI'll take 20! Of the thin mints, that is ...
ReplyDeleteThe mints are my fav ...hands down....Enjoyed my visit to your blog tonight while doing a little blog hopping. Hope you will stop by mine. This is my ONE YEAR Blog Anniversary and prizes everyday....
