Tasteful Memory : Girl Scout Cookies



What is it about Girl Scout cookies that I love? First off, as a former Girl Scout myself, I feel a bond with these current scouts peddling their cookies outside of Kroger. I remember putting on my uniform (with a green beret) and walking around knocking on doors for cookies. I also remember earning my badge for selling 100 boxes. Thanks to the help of my mother who helped sell them at her work.

After doing TWO workouts yesterday (one was hot yoga and one was a three-mile run), I just felt spent and worn out. I put on my nightgown and decided to put two lemon chalet creme cookies on a small plate and poured myself a glass of milk. Yum, carbs, dairy and protein. I slowly ate my two cookies and enjoyed each bite.

It made for a great post-workout snack, and it was a nice reward for a physically demanding day. :)
