Omg. It’s almost the weekend! I’m soo ready for it!
A couple weekends ago, I went to the farmer’s market looking for fresh produce. On my way to the farmer’s market, I stumbled across a little Girl Scouts’ stand selling not cookies but so many other snacks. Mixed nuts, dried fruits, trail mix, chocolates.
Um, what?! As if I don’t spend enough money on Girl Scout cookies during the spring. Now, they come out with chocolates and nuts during the fall? I’m so doomed…
But the girls were soo cute, and when they asked me if I wanted to buy some, how could I resist? Especially when it’s chocolate?
I finally got around to opening the box I bought. I tried to take my time because I know I wouldn’t be able to stop at one.
Are these dark chocolate mint penguins cute or what?
In this week’s finds…

I had no idea the Girl Scouts had these. My daughter loves everything penguin and will be super excited for this. Thanks for sharing!
I hope you’ll be able to find it!
Oh those are so cute!
But yup definitely dangerous for the girl scouts to be getting into the chocolate business too, i can’t resist myself.
I know, right?
Ironically my boyfriend just got the peanut butter bear girl scout chocolates as an early Christmas present. It’s fascinating that they’re expanding out to other products. Makes me wonder if they’re losing business and are doing this to stay competitive.
I’m not sure. But it does get kind of expensive, and it makes me have second thoughts about buying the cookies when it’s cookie season.
Who ever came up with that design should get an award for cuteness.
Can you imagine if the white part was marshmellow? Oo-la-la.

That would be amazing. lol
Oh, baby! Chocolate-mint penguins! I want some.
I know, right?
They are adorable! Although prezzies of a chocolate variety in my family are a no go. Some plain don’t like it, the rest are lactose intolerant. More for me I suppose…
Definitely more for us!
Such a shame eh? 😉
