Happy Hour Girl Scout Cookies

Categories
Lifestyle

My friend’s daughter Allison calls me “Uncle Fred” and she’s in her last year of Girl Scouts and she’s got it in her head that she wants to go out in a flourish and what better way than to set the record for Girl Scout Cookie sales!

 

Being a good “Uncle”, I’m all in and, of course, gave her an order, but then last Friday her dad was on our weekly 5:00 Happy Hour Zoom and I had the inspiration to ask him to put her on screen so I could promote her quest.  

 

Talk about “A Star Is Born”, Allison was so composed, articulate, engaging, single minded…she took over!

 

And, of course, the orders rolled in and she approaches the record.  If you would like to contribute to her success, her order link (pictured) is digitalcookie.girlscouts.org

 

Happy Hour was Magical!

You never know what will crop up.  You too might have a Star Turn!  Join us and add to the Happy Hour Magic every Friday at 5:00 :)

Happy Hour has been a friendship incubator unlike any other. And Allison was truly delighful.

There's an option on the order form to send the cookies to soldiers serving overseas. That's this former Girl Scout's go-to.

I concur, Allison was most impressive and charismatic! Looking forward to receiving my 12 box order and trying their S'mores for the first time, Bravissima Allison!

Can’t wait to eat mine!

I think it was the most fun I had at HH and they are always fun! I can’t wait for my order to arrive!

I echo Jane - you can send them to our troops serving away from their families. A great option -especially if you don’t want to eat them all in one day (which is a real danger in my house!)

I was the first to order and set the bar at a minimum of 10 boxes per person. Most of the happy hourites followed suit. great fun.

Once I give in, there’s no stopping me :)

Juliet Gordon Low, founder of the Girl Scouts, would be thrilled with Gotham. In her own words, “Ours is a circle of friendships united by ideals.”
Cookie Monster is happy too.

Alison was truly impressive! But not being from here, I find the idea of girl scouts selling cookies quite strange. I was in the Polish (communist) version of scouts (coed) and we just did some outdoor things.

I have to look. Girl Scout cookies are the best. And, now wait until you see my blog on Monday!!!
