Yeah…I thought that basket needed a little something too. So I added some flowers and leaves. Ahhh much better. And guess what? Those are the flowers and leaves from Block 1 of Mimi’s Bloomers. If you missed it you can find them here.
If you want to make this block here are the instructions etc:
Also, since I am so in love with that ruler from yesterday I thought I would give one away. To enter just leave a comment telling us FAVORITE Girl Scout cookie. If you don’t have Girl Scout cookies in your part of the world then just let us know your favorite cookie. See ya Monday!


Scouting was such a huge part of my life...back when the cookies were .25 & .50 cents a box!! Thin Mints were my favorite for years but I'm loving Tagalongs now too!! Great give away Erin....love that sweet basket!!

Always Thin Mints, but alas, we don't buy them anymore since my daughter now has food allergies. :-(

Definately Thin Mints!

I knew your basket couldn't stay empty for long!
Thin mints use to be mt favorites, remember when they had a thick layer of mint? Now I would have to say Samoas are. I come from a long line of girl scouts. My grandmother, at one time, was a leader for troop #1, the Juliette Low troop in Georgia. Girl Scout cookies have always been a part of my life.

Trefoils were my favorite. :) I love the basket and am feeling the need to make at least 4 of them. Thanks! :)

Thin mints have always been my favorite! Thank you for the cute basket pattern! The yellows and blues look great together. Reminds me that Spring is just around the corner!

Samoas - chocolate, coconut, caramel - what's not to love?
Posted by: Susan Torrens | 02/10/2012 at 07:49 AM
Sugar cookies all the way, then the mints. Look forward to ordering every year. Any of you remember camp fire girls and they sold mints, I so miss those!

Your basket is very cute! I love thin mints...they are my favorite.
Posted by: Estie | 02/10/2012 at 07:51 AM
Thin mints! No, wait. Samoas! No, definitely Thin Mints! Ah, heck. It's one of those two. :)
Posted by: Yvonne B | 02/10/2012 at 07:57 AM
Thin Mints are definitely my favorites.
Posted by: DebrafromMD | 02/10/2012 at 08:00 AM
While my pedigree doesn't go back to troop #1, my grandmother and mother were both leaders. My daughter is now a Junior Girl Scout. Thin mints are a seasonal must!

My favorite girl scout cookie are dosidos

Ahh, just love this time of the year. Girl Scouts everywhere with their cookies. Just can't look at their sweet little faces and say no. (good excuse to buy,huh?) Love the Trefoils first but the lemon ones are sure good too.
Posted by: Ellen | 02/10/2012 at 08:08 AM
Oh, gosh, it's been years since anyone has sold girl scout cookies in our area. But It was a carmel cookie I loved best.
Posted by: Rhonda L Gillette | 02/10/2012 at 08:17 AM
I love the "boring" Shortbread cookies. They're simple and rich and yummy! Even after surviving being a leader and a troop cookie mom I still have to have me a box of shortbreads every year.

i love thin mints. its like eating potato chips. you can't eat just one. my second favorite is the samoas.
Posted by: ilean | 02/10/2012 at 08:36 AM
of course it is thin mints. Who can resist!!??
Posted by: kathleen | 02/10/2012 at 08:56 AM
Samoas -- no contest at all. My DH loves the shortbread, so we buy enough to last all year of both.
Posted by: Myra Ungerman | 02/10/2012 at 09:14 AM
Always and forever thin mints, and the shortbread come in second. Thank you for your beautiful patterns and thoughtfulness.
