Okay, this may be the lamest post ever, but I am putting it out there: Girl Scout Lemon Chalet Cremes are worth the $3.50 per box. I know, I KNOW! It's a ridiculous to price to pay when it's CHOCOLATE, why would anyone risk that kinda cash on a cookie? Well. I don't blame you. The lemon cremes look like the cheapie wafer cookies in the big cellophane no-name bags at the store. The ones where you get 100 for $1.99.
But I was delivering some to a lady who said, "These are HUGE in Texas - I can't believe I'm one of the only ones to buy some. TRY ONE!" Well, for one, it's got the sissiest name EVER. Lemon Chalet. Who was in charge of naming, and what was the alternate?
So, with these low expectations, I took a bite. Oh, my. The cookie has spices like cinnamon and ginger, and the creme has lemon zest or SOMETHING that makes it so incredibly lemony and tasty that you KNOW you are not eating a cheap cookie. OH, my, yum. Go, try, enjoy. Worth every calorie. I do NOT feel like I am swishing down the Swiss Alps. I do NOT feel like I am on vacation at a "chalet", but I DO love the lemony taste of these cookies! Recommend. Highly. I should start an Oprah list.
And our number one fan? Baby Sam. He can't get enough of them. He can be lured away from anything if you just dangle a lemon creme where he can see it. So, if you get a chance, get a box. Open it right there. Try one. Then buy two more boxes, because you will be craving these babies just as soon as you've swallowed one. YUM. Then give me a call. I like to know I've made a change in someone's life. Even if it's a new addiction. ;D

I'm dying for some GSC. I ordered 2 boxes, but everyone else seems to have theirs already. Where are mine, dammit?!?!
But now I'm upset I didn't order those lemon ditties. They sound amazing. Chalet INDEED!! I need to go get some right now.
AURGH!!! All the girl scouts seem to have disappeared in our area and we have yet to get our supply of girl scout cookies. They used to be in the T station calling out to everyone and now it's like the Boy Scouts cracked down or something because you can't find them anywhere. If I see them, I'm getting these though!
Lucky you...ours are $4 a box! I will have to try these. Kevin is a HUGE lemon fan. Someone should tell the girl scouts that good marketing would be giving samples (like they do at Costco) of all the new & different cookies...
Steve was in charge of buying cookies this year (because He did it before I had a chance) and I guarantee that he did not buy any cookie with lemon in the name. :(
