Girl Scout Cookie Time!

It’s Girl Scout Cookie Time again! I’ve bought mine. No kids come to the door anymore. It’s all done through family and friends and/or the Girl Scouts sell the cookies outside the market or Wal-mart or someplace locally.

They’re $4 a box now. When I sold them, they were 50 cents. Now that’s a hip hop person. Thought I’d throw that in even if it has nothing to do with cookies.

I loved being a Girl Scout. I lived on an Air Force base which was in the middle of nowhere. We got to escape occasionally by going on overnighters or to camp each summer. I’m still dear friends with many of my former troop. And, I still have my badge sash with the 24 badges I earned on it. There are four that are just pinned. I must have gotten them when my interest in scouting was waning, and I had probably discovered boys and could care less about badges. I was going to fix it but I think having the badges pinned instead of sewn was part of the history of the sash. I don’t even know if they have the sashes … or for that matter, the badges, anymore.

If you haven’t bought any Girl Scout cookies yet, don’t miss out. It’s a great organization.
