Look at those faces. Aren't they adorable?!

It's cookies season for the Girl Scouts and girls are out in force hawking Thin Mints, Samoas, Tagalongs and more.   But Girl Scouts is about a whole lot more than baked goods, as this story from NPR's Tovia Smith explains.


Vestavia Troops 27 and 145 still have nearly 500 boxes of cookies to sell and nearly as many ways to use them.  Um, let's see: 
  1. Straight out of the box one Thin Mint sleeve at a time!
  2. Not Yo Mama's Banana Pudding (with Trefoils) 
  3. Bourbon Samoa Bars (bourbon. need I say more?)
  4. Thin Mint Chocolate Cheesecake
And that's just a sample. Check the links for even more recipes.

Need some cookies to do your recipe sampling?  Troops 27 and 145 are holding a cookie booth tomorrow (3/10) from 10 a.m. to ?? at the Hoover WalMart on 150. Come out, say "Hi!" and get your sugar on...
