penfieldWho do you think would win in a gang fight: the Keebler Elves or the Girl Scouts? I think the Elves would have superior organization, guile and technology, while Girl Scouts would have the advantage of size and sheer ruthlessness.
Yes, it's Girl Scout Cookie season again. The Girl Scout Cookie program is designed to teach young women the value of teamwork, entrepreneurship and using your cuteness to sucker money out of people. This is why the cookies are not available for online orders 365 days per year; the scouts are forced to put forth the effort and promotion and we are forced to interact with the little vendors.
Which means I have to stock up now for the lean summer and autumn months. I have probably mentioned in this space that my favorite ice cream combination is vanilla with mashed-up Thin Mints. For more traditional cookie usage, however, I am all about the All-Abouts.
D.C.-area cookie lovers can search for their next and nearest sales venue here.
