Girl Scout Cookie Time!

With the holidays over, a saddened nation turns its eyes to the Scouts.

A local Scout leader has posted that Girl Scouts will be at a local grocery store this weekend selling the awesome treats that help cure the post-holiday blahs.

Make no mistake, this nation is SERIOUSLY in love with Girl Scout cookies. A story posted on HuffPo announcing a new cookie attracted 706 comments. The Post is now inviting readers to vote for their favorites and learn each cookie's history.

Call me a populist, but I love me some Thin Mints. What's scary is that I always open the box intending to eat one or two...then just a few more...okay, just a few more...

And then it's off to the store before Tara realizes that they are gone.
