| March 9, 2017 12:00 AM

Cookie lovers, the wait is just about over.

Girl Scout cookies are once again for sale. Returning are the favorite flavors of Thin Mints, Samoas, Tagalongs, DoSiDos, Trefoils and Savannah Smiles for $5 a box. The S'mores Girl Scout Cookies are making their delicious debut at $6 a box and the gluten-free Toffee Tastics are also $6 each.

Cookie sale proceeds directly benefit local troops. For those who want to support the Girl Scouts of Eastern Washington and Northern Idaho but don't care to indulge, cookies can be purchased and donated to military organizations through the Troop to Troop program. This sends a sweet taste of home to active military men and women and veterans, stateside and deployed.

To find a local cookie booth, visit www.gsewni.org and click on "find cookies" or call (509) 747-8091.

The sale will be from March 24 to April 16.
