One good thing about being pregnant is that I don't worry about how many cookies (or ice cream or candy bars...) I eat. And being pregnant when the Girl Scout Cookies come out for sale? Ohhhhh, it's very good timing!
My only real problem is that I bought the amount I normally would buy, and that's not enough for me while pregnant. Not nearly enough!
So this week's question of the week is:
Which is your favorite Girl Scout Cookie? If you don't get Girl Scout Cookies, than what is your favorite packaged cookies?
I actually don't usually like packaged cookies. Any of them, even when they are stuffed with icing or have chocolate in them or fruit flavors. But for some reason, the Girl Scout Cookies are an exception. In fact, I've loved two of them for as long as I can remember.
Since childhood, I've had a tie for my favorites: Tagalongs and Samoas. I love them both so very much, and I could never pick one over the other. Until this year. Maybe it's just due to pregnancy, but I think I was leaning this way last year. No matter way, my absolute favorite is now Tagalongs!
Though I love the coconut and caramel goodness of Samoas, there is nothing better to me than the chocolate and peanut butter with a bit of a crunch. Mmmmm.
Unfortunately, I've only got one last, single Tangalong cookie. I'm saving it, savoring it, trying to make it last. I want it sooooo bad. But then I'll have no more, and what will I look forward to in the realm of packaged cookies?
How about you? Do you have a favorite that you can't get enough of? And do you know where I can get another box (or five) of Tagalongs?

My absolute favorite Girl Scout Cookies are the Thin Mints! I try not to buy any, but got two boxes this weekend. I have been good though, I've only eaten 2 cookies so far.
Girl Scouts are always selling their cookies right outside the grocery stores after school. You might try grocery shopping around 4 or 5pm on the weekdays. They were outside of the Amish Market this past Saturday morning, I bet they will be there again this weekend.
not to be a party pooper but I used to love those things. I came home to a beautiful box of Thin Mints and Shortbreads-- gave them a shovel (into my mouth) and they tasted like cardboard to me. wtf? after 5 years of missing them.. cardboard?!?!
Not a big cookie fan. . . I'm more of a cracker and chip guy.
I firmly believe that Thin Mints have crack in them. The other flavors... *shrug*
Of course, my all-time favorite packaged cookie is the Lu chocolate wafer cookies, the ones not dipped in chocolate (although those are yummy, too). I haven't been seeing them in the stores recently, though.
Looking for cookies?
Try the cookie finder:

Just type in your zip code!
If the other link doesn't work for your zip code, try this one:

I like this one because it links you to a calendar, which is very easy to read. :)
i USED to love tagalongs. i would eat a whole box in one sitting. i stopped buying them when i realized that the price was increasing, and the number and size of the cookies was decreasing.
how many are in the box now? used to be 16, then 14. the amount listed on the outside always said "approx. 15" LOL
It's been so long since I've had girl scout cookies! My mom used to by a ton of them every year. My fave are the tagalongs! Yummo!
