Girl Scout cookies just arrived in my town yesterday and I now have 90 cases of cookies being dispersed throughout my daughter’s troop. I am the “cookie mom” and in charge of ordering all the cookies and getting them all distributed to the girls so they can then deliver them to the people who bought cookies from them. Problem is, I ordered 17 boxes of cookies so my daughter whould make the level where she could earn a T-shirt!
Now I have 17 boxes of cookies in my cupboard. Here is my plan to NOT EAT THEM ALL!
I will donate most of them to the Troops at Hanscom AFB. Every year the Girl Scouts do this amazing cookie drive and donate thousands of cases of cookies to the troops and they then send them overseas and wherever the troops are. Isn’t that wonderful?! So I just have to remember that I am donating them to a very worthy cause and that should take the sting out of me not eating them!
The other hard thing that I will have to deal with is Valentines Day. Hopefully I will NOT get any chocolate candies or heart shapes Hershey Kisses! I love chocolate and for me I am lucky because if I don;t go near it I am fine but if I have one then it’s all over. So I will simply avoid it and be fine.
I love my husband but if he gets me any fattening food for V Day we may not make it to Year 11!
