Oh...It's a cookie. I thought we were doing another darmachakra. very good.#2: Liz P (lizteach) on Jan 4, 2011 [SPOILER]
I prefer the Thin Mints. I earned a silver spoon ring for selling the most cookies in my troop, way back when. I still have that thing somewhere.#3: Kadou (Kadou) on Jan 4, 2011 [SPOILER]
Fun puzzle, and it does look like a Samoa!
So good, you can almost taste it!#4: bugaboo (bugaboo) on Jan 4, 2011
it might not have been necessary but i used edge logic on the far right 8 just because it was easier and i enjoy it#5: Gator (Gator) on Jan 5, 2011 [HINT]
great image and solve
Here are some hints if someone is having trouble:#6: Tom O'Connell (sensei69) on Jan 5, 2011
After some initial line solving, look at column 8. By analyzing possible ways this column can be filled in, you can see that R12C8 has to be a 1 clue (you just don't know which one). This gets you two dots.
You also need to look at column 6 to figure out that R11C6 has to be a dot no matter how column 6 is filled in.
The rest solves with easier line logic.
i like the thin mints also, thx Gator#7: Susan Duncan (medic25733) on Jan 5, 2011

My favorite Girl Scout cookie for my 6600th puzzle solved! Nice puzzle!#10: Nancy Kay (joyfulnancy) on Jan 6, 2011 [SPOILER]
Yum! I love Samoas! And thin mints... I need to find a Girl Scout!!#11: Teresa K (fasstar) on Jan 7, 2011
Yum! Really fun puzzle, Gator.#12: Jane Doe (telly) on Jan 8, 2011
ditto #10#13: Sarah Andrews (sarah) on Jan 15, 2011 [SPOILER]
great puzzle.#14: Gator (Gator) on Jan 15, 2011
oh yum -- a crossword puzzle cookie. lol
ditto #12. I thought girl scouts sold cookies in front of grocery stores but they don't here. When I was a girl scout, a box of cookies cost 60 cents.
Sarah - that was a long time ago. :)#15: Sarah Andrews (sarah) on Jan 15, 2011
Thanks.
Gator, I know it was so long ago. I'm surprised I could even remember. lol#16: Marie-Louise Ambrey (marz71) on Dec 5, 2011
Another fun one! Thanks Gator :)#17: Gator (gator) on Dec 5, 2011
Thanks!#18: Edith Clark (eclark) on Jan 21, 2012
It was a fun solve although I used edge logic/guess near the start and then line logic the rest of the way. It strained my brain but that is why I come here. Thanks, Gator.#19: Jan Wolter (jan) on Oct 10, 2013
Oh man, am I seeing spots after solving this puzzle.#20: Aurelian Ginkgo (AurelianGinkgo) on May 18, 2018
My daughter sells Girl Scout Cookies, but has never eaten one. There will apparently be a glutin-free Girl Scout cookie for the first time this year in some areas. I doesn't appear to be dairy-free, but my daughter seems to be able to tolerate some dairy these days.
This won't leave cookies on my web browser, will it? Maybe just some bytes. Overall, sweet puzzle!#21: Gator (gator) on May 21, 2018
Thanks Aurelian.
