At the grocery store today a small girl with a brown vest, pigtails, a smile with missing teeth, and a Brownie pin asks me, "Would you like to buy some Girl Scout Cookies?" Who can say no to such a question? So even though my cash was in the car and it was a dangerous windchill out there today, I walked back in the store with my twenty dollar bill and paid for a box of shortbread cookies. The Brownie was going to short me five dollars but the leader helped her make accurate change. I just can't resist the charms of a girl selling Girl Scout cookies.
