Question: Where can I get some Girl Scout cookies?

Look for cookie booths at malls, department stores, fairs, and expos. Also, check to see if any of your co-workers have daughters selling cookies at your work. But, always buy from the girl who comes to your door first. To find out when your council sells cookies, check out your local council website, or search for your zip code on the Girl Scout Cookie Website. The website also will help you find the closest cookie booth location, and give you information about how to buy cookies. Thank you for supporting your local Girl Scouts!

Question: How do I know if a recipe is safe, if I have a food allergy?

1. At the bottom of every recipe post, there should be food allergy information about the recipe's contents for your convenience. This information only includes the most common food allergies, including: wheat, soy, milk, coconut, flour, peanuts and other nuts, eggs, cocoa, marshmallow, lemons, cranberries, and banana. However, the information accounts only for the Girl Scout cookies' allergy information, and a few various other ingredients that are found in the ingredient list. So, make sure you check the contents of anything ingredients added that are processed, like cake mix, etc. 
2. It's important that you also check the contents (found under the Nutrition Facts on the side of the box) in each box of cookies you use, just in case, before you use them.
3. If you have a serious allergy or an allergy to something not listed above in #1, you can access the ABC Girl Scout cookies' complete Nutrition Facts on the ABC Bakers Nutrition Facts Pages. Little Brownie Bakers cookies' complete Nutrition Facts can be accessed on the Little Brownie Bakers Cookies Pages. 
4. If you have any other questions, feel free to email me at: gscookiebook@gmail.com
