I discovered that if you offer a lady frozen thin mints you can seal the deal
within an hour.

Frozen Caramel Delights (sometimes called Samoas), and you're looking at
lifetime commitment. No lie.

The thin mint thing worked for me, she was cute, but I never got to try the
caramel delights.

I'm back to serious low carbing too, so GS cookies are out for the time

So are Lindt's truffles.

I've switched back to small lettuce leaves in place of crackers for
snacking. Just had some boston butter lettuce leaves with a smidgin of
mayo, mozarella cheese and a pickle slice.

Sounds like a plan. Any chance we'll be seeing you in that other
newsgroup?

Oh I'm there, just mostly lurking.
I started that vitamin B-2 thread.
I really, really hate that stuff, but I take it anyway.
I gag it down right before going to sleep after eating
a light meal so it'll sit ok.

It makes a noticable difference in my eyesight. It helps
with Astigmatism. (sp?)

I love the texture and flavor of Boston Butter lettuce! ;-d

That's okay. Girl Scouts are pretty scarce around here, so temptation
isn't an issue. Cookies are one of my worst vices.

There is always that line from Adams Family:

"Are they made with real Girl Scouts?"

You evil bitch! LOL!

I love the ones with caramel, coconut, and chocolate, all piled on top
of a cookie base.

Those are my favorites, too. Not only are your brownies banned from
my home, those particular cookies are, too. I'm glad I don't work at my
old job anymore, the boss' little girls sold cookies and were were
pressured into buying them. Of course, I bought the low fat cookies...
AND the coconut chocolate ones.
I don't remember what they were called, probably because the box never
lasted too long around the house. Hours, tops.

Sorry, just pointed out the irony. I wasn't revelling in it.


Oh I know you weren't, apologies if it seemed like I was implying it.
My parents lost 2 children. 1 before I was born at 4 months of age from
SIDS, and a second one when I was 8. She was 10. Car wreck.

One of my teachers back in the 8th grade lost their son when he was
participating in a McDonalds bike-a-thon. He swerved and got hit by a
car. Why they have those bike thingies out on a major highway like that
is beyond me.

Yeah, but the goal is to teach boys how to be men, not sheep, which is
what
some of the leaders believe.

Keep the parents involved.
The majority of that crap can be prevented that way?

I was there the whole time. But, there were a lot of kids from households
with missing fathers. They were either alone at the meetings, or with their
mothers, and the moms were not inclined to **** on the troop leader. If it
hadn't been for me and one other dad, there never would've been a knot-tying
night. The leader thought rope was dangerous. A-hole.



Ugh. What a wuss!

You could always become a scout troop leader! :-)

Is it a brand name, putting out several varieties of cookies, or are
Peek Freans a particular variety?

It is a brand name. They make a variety of biscuits like Digestive,
Shortbread, Tea biscuits, Nice. My favourites are the round ones with
currants in them. They also have layers biscuits, like Bourbon Cream
(chocolate) , cream filled, jam filled.

Thanks!

My perference in Peak Freans is their plain shortbread cookie

I can't respect any group that chooses to dump on a religion (Unitarianism)

I don't understand the religious badges that Boy Scouts give out. I
don't remember my years as a Brownie too well but I know I was told I
couldn't get into Girl Scouts since my family didn't go to church.
That's all I know. What happens to kids in the Boy Scouts who don't
have a religion, then? Is being religious a requirement?

Those are pretty good. Their chocolate digestives are pretty good too.
One thing puzzles me about the way they market them. You can get the variety
packs of the biscuits and the variety packs of the layered biscuits with
filling. You can buy packages of the shortbread, Digestives, Chocolate
Digestives (milk and dark chocolate), Nice, Social Teas, Bourbon Creams, the
custard cream ?, the cream and jam filled.

My favourites are the round biscuits with the currant and the round cream
filled that are sort of like a digestive. I have never been able to find
packages of them. I can only get them in the variety packs, and that means
too few of my favourites and too many of the others.
