In a surer sign of Spring than cherry blossoms or robins, Girl Scout cookies are now available!

The Mrs. was out today and came back with a box of Thin Mints, Trefoils and (for reasons I don't understand) Samoas. So what's your favorite?

Sort of like a Orio but the cookie is a peanut butter and it had a peanut butter filling. Do-si-dos seems to be the replacement.

I, sadly, like most of them. Sadly, because I don't eat nearly as much now. It actually takes me weeks to get through a box of GS cookies. Even the best kind, Samoas (depending on which baker the troop uses, they might have a more generic name). Thin mints also good, and the shortbread kind. Never tried the lemon.

Samoas are my personal favorite, though they are more candy bar than cookie. I don't mind supporting GS, since my two daughters were doing the same thing, but Aldi's has "Caramel Delights" cookies identical to Samoas but more per package, and a heck of a lot cheaper to boot.

I wondered why the heck would Girl Scouts be cooking samosas?

Yeah, I need this to continue. I have had enough cold for this season. I have a hate-hate relationship with winter!

rocketwolf: OK Wife Sister and I got our first shot this morning at Walmart. They are kinda slow and spastic about getting it done but it got done for us. We had registered on online mine "disappeared" from the comp. I had the email copy to prove it. It took an hour. Feb 18, 2021 14:36:29 GMT -5

Sprightly: It is between 28-44 days max. I don't know that 44 days at the earliest is necessary. Having said that, we will know when a large number of people do or do not have a reaction at 44 days. Feb 11, 2021 9:33:36 GMT -5

Sprightly: Had my second vaccine this morning, WKDWZD. At 12 hours later I am feeling okay. My arm seems to be getting sorer as the day goes on. No fever thus far. Just really tired. We shall see what the overnight brings. Feb 10, 2021 21:25:52 GMT -5
