It's like when they demoted Pluto. Sure Pluto is still out there, but suddenly my childhood associations have been rearranged like a bad purple and pink room on Trading Spaces.<br /><br />I mean, if you're going to change a dearly beloved name, you'd better come up with something provocative and enticing. Caramel Delight doesn't cut it.Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12972859225531865477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5504088444439406952.post-40842490160963185102010-02-03T20:13:42.367-08:002010-02-03T20:13:42.367-08:00Troy Polamalu is at the door, and he would like to...Troy Polamalu is at the door, and he would like to have a word about your snack choices.Jim 7https://www.blogger.com/profile/00334319627974293725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5504088444439406952.post-18045311050252603682010-02-03T07:37:08.658-08:002010-02-03T07:37:08.658-08:00They are my favorite girl scout cookie.

Apparently, the girl scouts switched baking facilities a few years back. The one that they had been using had copyrighted the name "Samoas" so the girls scouts couldn't legally use it once they switched to a different bakery. I say the girl scouts, if anyone, deserve a free pass. They're the girl scouts for crying out loud! Down with corporate baking facilities!!! Big virtual hugs to dLo! :)<br /><br />P.S. If you guys would like to order cookies, I have a source! :)Rosemary Brennanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03443172136203359953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5504088444439406952.post-78130818566772801732010-02-02T15:35:42.471-08:002010-02-02T15:35:42.471-08:00So am i now supposed to decorate my living room wi...So am i now supposed to decorate my living room with Samoans?
