For Christie Brown and Co., makers makers of Girl Guide cookies since 1961, the creation of a new cookie presented presented an interesting challenge. "Girl Guide cookies are an institution in Canada and we are very proud of that. With our new cookie, we were looking for a flavour that would give consumers a taste of the Girl Guide adventure in the 90's. We wanted this new cookie to be completely unique to Girl Guides, one that was not commonly commonly available on grocery store shelves," said Maureen Lawrence, Provincial Commissioner,' Girl Guides of Canada, Ontario Council." After much cookie tasting, we found our Chocolatey Mint cookie and we're confident that it won't let our thousands of Girl Guide cookie lovers lovers down."

Within every woman there is a powerful force, filled with good instincts, passionate creativity, and ageless knowing - Wild Woman, an endangered species. The gifts of wildish nature come to us at birth, but society 'civilizes' us into rigid roles, muffling the deep life-giving messages of our own souls. We become fearful, uncreative and trapped. Telling stories as a way of teaching, entertaining and healing is a universal and ancient art-form. Dr. Estes heals by her writing. The reader is healed in the reading, as she awakens memories of long suppressed ways of being.
