No Girl Scout cookies to support the pro-abortion, pro-Planned Parenthood commie group. Never.

Not for many decades when my daughter was in the GC.

Girl scouts are the training grounds for gender studies majors and are now led by the same.

I can’t imagine ever pairing wine with cookies. IMO, that ranks right up there with the Oreo cookie/mustard pairing I read about earlier today.

Thin mints and cabernet. I know perfectly well that those little curly-haired demons are packing them with heroin...

Walmart has good knock-offs of the thin mints and the coconut ones. :)
