Girl Scout Cookies

It is Girl Scout Cookie time.  I do not eat a lot of sweets, although from time to time, I like something sweet, and a cookie fits the bill.

Earlier this week, I saw an announcement in the newspaper that it was Girl Scout Cookie sales time, and they would be at various businesses selling cookies. 

Today, when I left work, there was someone in the parking lot selling Girl Scout Cookies. Although I was in a rush to get a commitment after work, I did take the time to buy a couple of boxes.  That does not sound like much, but during Girl Scout Cookie sales time, I do not pass up an opportunity to buy cookies.

In this day and age, the Girl Scouts set up in front of businesses to sell cookies. I might go to two or three businesses in one day where there are Girl Scouts selling cookies. I stop and buy cookies at each place.

When I was a Girl Scout, we went door to door selling cookies. All of our neighbors were very generous and probably bought more cookies than they needed to buy. I can not repay them.  But I can honor them by purchasing cookies when I can.
