Two newsy bits on Girl Scout cookies (yes, it's that time of year again!):
If you want to support the scouts but don't want cookies around the house you can pay for boxes that will be sent to troops overseas. That would be a nice taste of home for soldiers far away. Just a thought.
The first Girl Scouts cookies were baked in Philadelphia. From the inbox:
The Girl Scout Cookie Program began right here in Philadelphia in 1932 when Girl Scouts demonstrated their cooking skills in the windows of the Philadelphia Gas Company. This led to the Girl Scouts of Greater Philadelphia's first commercial cookie program in 1934, making this the 75th anniversary. The Cookie Program went national with the Girl Scouts of the U.S.A. in 1936.
