At this time of year my #readingsnack is Girl Guide Cookies all the way! I only let myself buy a couple of boxes from my niece once a year or else I'd eat nothing else and get scurvy (or something) #booktober @RealLifeReading

RealLifeReading Ooh what kind of cookies are they? 8y
Bibliogeekery @RealLifeReading - they are Oreo style but chocolate with chocolate cream filling and vanilla with vanilla cream filling and they are SO yummy! 🙂🍪 8y
brilliantglow I have discovered today that I follow a couple of fellow Canadians. I haven't seen too many of us on Litsy but maybe I just haven't found them yet. Lol 8y

cursetine I LOVE THESE COOKIES ❤️❤️❤️ 8y
Bibliogeekery @brilliantglow - there are a bunch of us Canadians on here! 🇨🇦 I'm in Toronto, where are you? 8y
Bibliogeekery @cursetine - right!?! Like it verges on unmanageable how good they are! 8y
brilliantglow @Bibliogeekery ohhh not too far from you. I'm in London. So about 2 hours from Toronto. I need to find more #canadianlittens 8y
rabbitprincess @brilliantglow Greetings from Ottawa 😉 8y
brilliantglow @Lindy @Tanner Yay for Canadians lol @rabbitprincess my husbands aunt/uncle live in Kanata. We come up that way every once in a while. 8y
rabbitprincess @brilliantglow 👍 Yay CanLit(tens)! 8y
quirkyreader When biscuit time came around my mum would buy a bunch of boxes and stick them in the freezer so that they would last a while. She would go crazy on the mint ones and I liked the peanut butter ones. Of course this was in the 1980's. 8y
Tanner @Bibliogeekery @brilliantglow @Lindy I'm north of Toronto, and have to admit I have 2 boxes of the Girl Guide mint cookies in my pantry. Mmmmm! #canadianlittens 8y
Zelma @quirkyreader mine too! She used to buy a case (which was about 40 boxes, if I recall correctly) of Thin Mints to freeze. And no one else in the family was allowed to have them. Don't get between my mom and her Thin Mints. 😂 8y
brilliantglow @Tanner I used to live north of Toronto. In Cobourg/Kingston area and much further north in Sudbury. I've also lived in Oshawa lol I've lived all over Ontario but no further north than Sudbury. 8y
Tanner @brilliantglow Oh wow, you have been all over! I've visited Sudbury and went to school in Kingston, but I live near Barrie now. 8y
brilliantglow @Tanner yes we moved a lot when I was a kid. Though I lived in Sudbury when I was going to school there. I have a couple friends in Barrie but I've never actually been there. Just driven by it lots lol 8y
LA_Mead Mmmm I love the thin mints. 8y
LA_Mead Also, yay for Canadian Litsy people! I live about an hour from Toronto. 8y
Bibliogeekery @LA_Mead - oh hey Canlit(ten). Where abouts do you live? I'm from Guelph originally. I also lived in Peterborough 8y
LA_Mead @Bibliogeekery I'm in Orangeville! 8y
Bibliogeekery @LA_Mead Ah, Orangeville is nice! 8y
LA_Mead @Bibliogeekery they have a great library :) 8y
Bibliogeekery @LA_Mead That is important! 8y
Jilanna Mint GG cookies always taste best straight from the freezer. I would start out with good intentions -- freeze them for later -- and then just have one...and and another...and another...SO good. The classic vanilla/chocolate will always be my favourites, though they aren't quite as good as they were when I was a kid and peddling them for myself. #nom 8y
quirkyreader I grew up in Michigan, so does that make me secretly Canadian? 8y
Bibliogeekery @Jilanna Yes!! To all of it. Just yes. 8y
Bibliogeekery @quirkyreader most definitely 😉 8y
