Our neighborhood is overrun with cookies sold by troops of Daisies, Brownies, Girl Scouts and Cadets all over the Hill. You’re likely only a block or so away from such a girl– but just in case you aren’t, we can point you in the right direction. Load up on Samoas, Thin Mint, Trefoils (12 varieties in all –and two gluten-free options!!) and cheer on these plucky young women by supporting their full range of empowering, confidence-boosting activities. And if you plan it right, you can pick up some milk on the way home. Protein and carbs: You can almost call it dinner!
