Girl Scout Cookies

What is the deal?!  Seriously.  Is it not obvious to all who encounter me that I most definitely need to be on a strict diet and soliciting my purchase of amazing cookies that conjure up annual memories of sweetness is “not really helpful”?  To add salt (or sugar as the case may be) to the wound, the proprietors of these treats are sweet little girls who go out of their way and take the time to knock on my door to peddle their wares.  This makes refusal downright cruel, if not impossible.  I too remember being on the other side of that doorbell and hating that horrible fear of door-slamming rejection.  Ugh.  So yeah, Girl Scouts worldwide, this Mom of the Year is most definitely an easy target.  She will buy your cookies, albeit with a hateful desire for vengeance for destroying her diet aspirations.  Sell with caution.
