So the first thing I have to tell you is that our Cookie Season is full throttle right now! In Middle Tennessee we have a couple of bragging rights. I have been told that we are the ONLY council in the nation that still sells cookies for $3.50/box for the traditional flavors and $5.00 for our special all natural S'mores & Gluten Free Toffee Tastic! Every other council (including the 2 others in Tennessee) cost more! The second is that we have the better tasting cookies (Little Brownie Bakers) of the two Girl Scout cookie bakers according to some random cookie tasters in this Youtube video:
Little Brownie Bakers vs. ABC Bakers
See for yourself! Also a pastry chef critiqued our cookies as well here:
And I saved the coolest video for last! Here is how the magic happens!
What is your favorite Cookie?
Okay enough bragging and drooling over videos and pictures! How can you get your own cookies? It's simple. Here in middle Tennessee we start taking orders every year the day after Christmas. These pre-orders are the only way to ensure you get exactly how many of what cookies you want.
When we place these orders in the third week of January, we are guessing (yes I said guessing) at how many more we need to order to sell at our cookie booths at storefronts, so you are at our mercy for what we have on hand and supply can run short quickly! Everyone loves Girl Scout cookies!
We receive our stockpile of cookies to deliver and booth cookies to sell the first weekend in February and almost immediately begin selling at booths throughout the month of February and sometimes into the first two days of March for those who still have cookies left to sell then. (Don't bet on getting your favorite flavors at this time.)
So if you need to find cookies close to you, just download the Little Brownie Bakers, Cookie Locator App. It will tune you in to booths closest to you! And remember if you can't eat our cookies you can always contribute to whatever non-profit we are sending cookies to or donate directly to Troop. Any support is greatly appreciated and enables our girls to be more equipped to make a difference in our community.
