Damn Their Delicious Cookies!
6x6 oil on panel, black floater frame
I was in the Brownies, but I absolutely hated having to wear the dress. I still hate wearing dresses. I can’t support an organization that forces every girl to wear a dress! What is this, the Taliban?
I also hated all their cheery optimism. (I don’t do cheery … or optimism).
By the time I was old enough to join the Girl Scouts, I was like, “They can take their stupid badges and merry campfire songs and shove them in their cookie-eating pie-holes.”
Oh, except that I do love their cookies. Like Michael Corleone in The God Father: “Just when you think you’re out, they draw you back in with their caramel delights!” Or that’s what he would have said if he was the reluctant leader of a cookie crime syndicate run by a bunch of annoying pre-teen girls.
Many thanks to @anonymousphotoproject for allowing me to use their photo as a reference!
