I had the great honor of being asked by the council of the Girl Scouts of the Green and White Mountains to do a Girl Scout Cookie Segment for them on WMUR, Channel 9 news on Cooks Corner here in New Hampshire on Friday, February 12th, 2010. The Girl Scout mission is to "build girls of courage, confidence and character who make the world a better place". To think that there are 17,000 girl scouts with 5,600 trained volunteers in that council is just amazing! As a Girl Scout leader for the past 3 years, it was such a thrill! I was asked to promote the Girl Scout mission and the Cookie Booth Sales promotions while showing how to make a recipe made out of Girl Scout cookies! I came up with a recipe of "Girl Scout Cookie Ice Cream Pie" using my favorite girl scout cookie, Thin Mints. In 2009, over 1.5 million Girl Scout cookies were sold - that's incredible! I did the segment LIVE on the 12pm news with Erin Fehlau, who is so sweet! Thank you to Girl Scouts and WMUR for making this a day to remember! My hubby and baby girl were also with me - so it was extra special!
The above picture is when I was in the WMUR News Studio behind the News Desk! Not bad for a day, huh? I think I like how I look behind that desk, heheheheeee ~ HINT HINT! Maybe if WMUR ever needs an "extra" person on the set to fill in - they can call on me to broadcast stories on exceptional volunteers in our state! Thank you ~ I had the best time EVER!!

With the beautiful and lovely Erin Fehlau of WMUR! We did the Cooks Corner Girl Scout segment together and she was so sweet and calmed my nerves too! Thanks for letting me share a moment of your spotlight and for being so kind! It was a blast! Wow - it's Kevin Skarupa! I had the opportunity to watch him do his Weather Broadcast LIVE - it was so cool! Thanks so letting me into your weather world! With Mary Ellen Hettinger, Public Relations Manager from the Girl Scouts of Green and White Mountains before the Girl Scouts Cookie Segment! Thanks so much for the opportunity to represent the Girl Scouts! With my baby girl behind the Cooks Corner Set, showing that "Everything made by Girl Scouts is made with lOVE"! With my baby girl behind the Storm Watch Weather News Desk - she was so excited - I think she even had a prediction on the weather to share!
