I love the Girl Scouts but when I was younger, I had to show up to my Mom's work and ask (beg) her co-workers to buy a box of cookies. Now, they don't even have to leave the house!
Most Girl Scouts bring their cookie order sheets to mom or dad's work, this Girl Scout in California decided to capitalize on the folks that would want a quick snack.
Not sure if you noticed or not, but I had to leave the morning show a little early yesterday because my beautiful, smart, funny, silly daughter Madelyn had a field trip.
She's a Girl Scout and they had a big celebration at the Capitol.
But while we were there we decided to see what other kinds of free fun we could get our hands on...
Some Girl Scouts dropped by WGNA to chat with Bethany about what things cost in the "real world."
Do you think they did okay? Wouldn't it be nice if most things were only a couple of bucks!
A new PSA is out, by Beyoncé, Sheryl Sandberg (Facebook COO and author of Lean In), Condoleezza Rice, Jane Lynch, Jennifer Garner, and many more strong women, and men. It's focus? Banning the word "Bossy"!
I personally can attest, being called "Bossy" is a buzz kill for strong girls everywhere...
Scouting was a part of my growing up, and, although I'm sure I resisted going to all of the meetings, I ended up enjoying learning how to do important things like CPR and tying knots (I still remember how to make a sheepshank---anybody?).
