It's Girl Scout Cookie Time

One of the best times of year is among us -- The 2012 Girl Scout Cookie Sale has begun. Through mid-March, thousands of Girl Scouts will take orders for your favorite Girl Scout Cookie varieties, including Do-Si-Dos, Dulce de Leche, Samoas, Tagalongs, Thank You Berry Munch, Thin Mints, or Trefoils.

This year marks the launch of the newest Girl Scout Cookie -- Savannah Smiles, a lemon-flavored cookie dusted in powdered sugar.

Pre-orders are taken in-person by a Girl Scout. If you don't know one in your neighborhood, call The Girl Scouts of West Central Florida at: 813-281-4475.

Pre-ordered cookies will be delivered on Feb. 16. Cookie booth sales won't begin until Feb. 24.

Visit www.gswcf.org to find a cookie booth using your zip code.
