This weekend marked a very important event at our house. We picked up the 240 boxes of Girl Scout cookies that Emma and Mary sold. We are now trying to decide whether to deliver the cookies or just eat all 240 boxes. For those of you who did not purchase cookies from our girls or any other girls a box of cookies now costs $3.50. For those of you who like math this means we have $840 worth of cookies in our bedroom right now. This is equivillent to one month's mortgage, about 5 car payments, 8.4 American Girl dolls, 70 piano lessons, 67.2 dance lessons, or 280 trips (with three girls) to the Dollar Store. These are just a few of the things we base our financial decisions on at this point. Based on these calculations, and the fact that we don't want to get violently sick, I guess we will go ahead and deliver the cookies instead of eat them all. Having said that we would like to report our favorite Girl Scout cookies to you all,
- Jeff is a Thin Mint man through-and-through.
- Karen is enamored with the carmel and coconut of Samoas.
- Emma loves her Thin Mints (with Do-si-dos a close second.)
- Mary prefers the peanut butter goodness of Tagalongs.
- Miia sticks with her mom and her Samoas.
What are your favorites?

Definitely thin mints.
Researchers recently found out that the Samoas contain an addictive substance that requires the consumer to eat 2 or even 3 in one sitting. Eating just one is out of the question.
I LOVE COOKIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Period.
