TFC Admission: Chick E Doesn’t Like……….

Once a year, probably around February I would guess, I am forced to make this admission to my closest friends and family.  Or to my closest friends, family, ex-co-workers, current co-workers, friends of friends, people I barely know, via Facebook.  I feel a huge weight lifted off my shoulders every time I say it, so I will now admit this here, for all of our faithful followers.

I don’t like Girl Scout cookies.

Phew.  There.  I said it.  Hopefully you are all still reading and didn’t immediately throw your computer/iPad/smart phone in anger and disgust.  Don’t do that.  That stuff’s expensive.

I just don’t get it.  They’re not even that good!  They’re sort of small. And dry.  And expensive!  Those things are like $19 a cookie.  I would so much rather have a pack of Mega-Stuffed Oreos than a box of any flavor of Girl Scout cookies.  Have we discussed Mega-Stuffed Oreos?  They’re like Double-Stuffeds on steroids.  They are insanely amazing.  I bought some this weekend and cannot stop eating them.  It’s a miracle I don’t eat the entire pack in one day.

On the other hand, I have an unopened box of Samoas and an unopened box of Thin Mints that have been in my pantry since February.  I couldn’t give two craps about those.   But every year I am forced to buy them because some sweet little girl in a green uniform comes by the house and I can’t say no.  Maybe next year I’ll see if I can just pay them to go to the store to get me Oreos.  I’d pay a hefty sum for that delivery service.

So there it is.  All out there for the world to read.  I hope we’re still friends.  If you are one of these people:

Can you tell me what it is?  What makes them so crazy good to you?  I think it’s that whole “you can’t always get what you want” thing.  I bet if they were available year-round people wouldn’t care as much.

Or maybe they would.  But I still won’t care at all.  Sorry.  😦
