Cookie Time

It's started. It is finally here. Girl Scout Cookies.

We pressure the girls to go out and sell these wonderful tasting cookies, nevermind that we don't want to eat them becuase the are just too good to have only one, I mean really I can't just have an open box at the house, it will be gone before you can say Girl Scouts.

So this year we have a new council. 18 counties worth of scouts all trying for cookie booths in the same 18 counties at the same time. Add to this the fact that there are no booths at the local mall this year and you get very slim pickings for our county!!

My troop averages 12 booths a year. It's how most of the girls get their boxes sold. This year I have us signed up for 10, probably won't get them all, which is fine if I can still do the booth during voting day and the Lent fish fry. Ya know it's getting harder to sell these things with so few places allowing booths and the price going up.

Oh well what can you do....
