My once a year vice.....

[locolorenzo24]

I don't know about you all, but I have to have some girl scout cookies when they start selling them around work. I set aside x dollars for the year when it comes to buying or supporting things around work and 8.00 for two boxes is a good deal to me...plus I LOVE thin mints!! Anyone else have a weak spot?

I buy a couple of boxes but the list of ingredients show them to be something you should eat only once in a while!

I love fudge, but if I make it, I eat it all. I allow myself to buy a small amount when I go to Gatlinburg a few times a year.

Dd has been involved in Guides for 5 years...we sell a lot of cookies. We eat a lot of them, too. It's a good thing they're only sold twice a year!

I love brownies. I say I'm making them for the kids, but I could eat a whole pan myself.

Re: My once a year vice.....

I have a total aversion to Girl Sscout cookies. Too expensive, and to me not that super. I would rather make a flat donation to the Girl scouts, then get those darn cookies. And I do give a straight donation. The cookies don't ring any of my bells. I feel the same way about almost any item sold like that for fundraisers. Co-workers are used to it-I'll give the $5 for the Band trip to wherever, but I will *not* buy a tin of nuts. Last time I gave $40 to the GS, so it's not a cheap thing. My boyfriend loves the cookies, but I don't provide them! Another pet peeve , I suppose.

Yeah, I understand that. I actually spent $15 on a coworkers football team cookie mix fundraiser, and wound up throwing out the dang dough! (It was easier to eat than make cookies!!)

Re: My once a year vice.....

I don't buy them either, my husband and I are both on diets.

Keebler "Grasshopper" cookies are about the same as the GS thin mints. Love them!

I crave chocolate iced donuts. I have not have any in 2 years.

Re: My once a year vice.....

I've got more than I dare to list but I will agree I love grasshoppers, brownies, ect. SO I try not to buy them because if I do I know I'll eat them like others have said before anyone else gets a chance. But basically any thing chocolate will due

My dh's is chips.

Re: My once a year vice.....

There is no way I could make something like a cake or brownies cause I would want to eat it all. I satisfy myself with those sugar free m and m candies. But I love anything with icing. I used to buy canned icing and ice shortbread cookies and eat them. Yum!!
