It's a conspiracy.

Do you know what this is?



It's the devil disguised as a cookie.
.
And - sadly it's that time of year again. The time of year when cute little girls dressed in green or brown smile sweetly up at me as I try to get in and out of the grocery store and ask if I'd like to support their troop.
.
Why not just say no? It's not possible. The Girl Scout Tagalong is my favorite cookie of all time. And I am weak.
.
Oh I try. But they are too smart for me.
.
I've walked in one door of the grocery store and say, "I'll buy on my way out -I promise!" And then try to exit through another door only to run into another group of girls.
.
If by chance I have managed to escape the grocery store without buying a single box, I will end up running into a daughter of someone I know who is selling my drug of choice. They were even camped out in front of Marshalls last year!
.
It's a damn conspiracy I tell you.
.
2 cookies = 150 calories.
.
I had 10 of them for breakfast this morning. (Yes - trust me it IS possible!)
.
10 cookies = 75% of my caloric intake for the day.
.
Basically I will be eating celery for lunch and dinner today.

I love you for admitting it. I ate a whole box of Caramel Delites this spring while sitting in my office and my only real regret was not having milk to wash them down with.

I have been working so hard on my "new way of life" - I won't say diet.
When those cute little girls come knocking on my door I'm just going to have to slam it in their cute little faces. Sorry, but they'll understand in 30 years.
