Good day

The Girl Scout Cookies have arrived. It’s time to work out this year’s incentive plan. Suggestions are welcome.

First, what are the cookies? (I usually buy thin mints, but Samoas have moved up the list.) My problem with the mints is that I can eat a half-tube in a sitting. I have less trouble controlling myself with the Samoas. Anyway, if I hide them from myself, self-control is better…out of sight, out of mind.

There are eight boxes: two each of trefoils, samoas, “Double Dutch” and thin mints. (Apparently the names change some regionally because of different bakeries used.)

I have to exert self-control in advance by “budgeting” the cookies, often as rewards. But last year I set mileage goals and the cookies ended up being colonized by ants.
