GSA.....Girl Scouts Annonymous anyone?

Do you know anyone who needs to join? I do! I don't think I ever wrote about our stories in the Trefoil hunts. Every year when girl scout cookies are for sale, I end up buying a ton and putting them in the freezer. Everyone always laughs at how many I buy, but they are good and the girls eat them. So this year, after finding out what a Girl Scout cookie freak Chris was and actually witnessing Chris and Allison, literally, chase each other around the house fighting over trefoils, I knew I hadn't ordered enough.

I had gotten a ton from Shellie but she didn't have any extra. I had sent Chris to Wal-Mart and he found another 4 boxes. I knew that wasn't going to be enough, so off I went to my Wal-Mart looking for the Girl Scout cookie tent. I had to pick up some things in Wally World and upon leaving ran into 3 girl scouts. One asked "would you like to buy some girl scout cookies?" I responded, 'thats the main reason why I came, how many boxes of trefoils do you have?'. She asked 'how many do you want?' for which I responded, ' no, how many do you have?'. We walked over to the tent and her mom looked and had 24 boxes left. I bought them all. The mom then proceeded to tell me that she had more at home if I needed more. I laughed.
So we continue to fill up the cookie jar with shortbread cookies. Everytime Chris or Allison gets in there, I can hear the glass. And I hear every excuse in the book. "There are broken ones here", "My hand couldn't help it", "If I don't eat some, Chris will eat them all" the list goes on. Its kind of funny. So again, I have filled up the cookie jar.....we'll just see how long it lasts...but wait till next year.... I think I may need a tractor trailer load delivered.
