Girl Scout Cookies On Your Lips

Julie GersteinNovember 9, 2011 //

God love Girl Scout Cookies, but they’re sadly only available a few months out of the year. If you don’t stock up, or just have no self-control, then your GS cookie intake is pretty limited. To satiate Thin Mint fans year round, Girls Scouts have partnered with Lip Smacker to make a series of cookie-flavored lip balms. The balms come in Chocolate Peanut Butter, Peanut Butter, Thin Mints, Trefoils and Coconut Caramel Stripes (which used to be called Samoas, ahem). Delicious, you say? Yes. But oh, such a tease. (Currently available in stores at Walmart and Claire’s Boutique.)

Thin Mints Get All The Love

Ami AngelowiczSeptember 6, 2011 //

Sometimes when I have sugar cravings I like to watch “To Chef: Just Desserts” and pretend like I’m a judge who gets to try everything. I did that last night. Today, I am Googling news items about cookies. I stumbled upon this delicious infographic that shows Girl Scout cookie varietals by percentage of sales. As usual, Thin Mints (which I personally find unimpressive) are hogging the spotlight. Where my Samoas lovers at? Holla! Crap, now I want to eat cookies. [The High Definite] Keep reading »

Give Me Back My Girl Scout Cookies … Or Else!

Ami AngelowiczFebruary 24, 2011 //

A 31-year-old Florida woman loves her Girl Scout cookies so much that she’s willing to fight for them. Hersha Howard was charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. The cause of the dispute? A box of Thin Mints. Hersha stormed into her roommate’s bedroom in the middle of the night when she discovered her box of Thin Mints had gone missing. The roommate ‘fessed up to the Thin Mint theft and offered to give the pissed cookie monster $10 for the stolen snack, but Hersha wasn’t having it. She attacked the woman with a pair of scissors until the police showed up and arrested her. I, too, get violently upset when someone steals my cookies, but Thin Mints? Come on! I can only imagine pulling a pair of scissors on someone if they ate my Somoas. [Naples News] Keep reading »

Don’t Tell Cookie Monster There Will Be Only 6 Kinds Of Girl Scout Cookies This Year

Unlike most of the girls I knew, I wasn’t that into being a Brownie. I thought the uniform was ugly (really, of all the colors in the world—brown?) and didn’t want to learn how to crochet in order to get a weird patch to sew onto a sash (really, sashes?). But there was one part of being a Brownie I liked—selling Girl Scout cookies. I remember walking up and down the aisles of my dad’s office bringing the promise of cookie deliciousness to his co-workers. I remember that people would take forever to study the order form before making their final selections.

Well, the decisions for Girl Scout cookie buyers this year will be much easier. There will only be six varieties of cookies to choose from in 2011. Keep reading »

Girl Scouts Host First Ever Duct Tape Fashion Show

Ali JawinJune 25, 2009 //

As a born and bred New Yorker, I never had the inclination to join the Girl Scouts and learn the necessary wilderness skills to survive the jungle otherwise known as Central Park. Just because I can’t figure out how to start a fire by rubbing rocks together and lack the super cute uniform does not mean I can’t appreciate Girl Scout Cookies. My addiction to thin mints is a real problem. If the cookies didn’t already earn my undying devotion for the Girl Scouts, then their first ever duct tape fashion show did. More info, after the jump… Keep reading »
