Good night, all.

Today, I received a couple of packages in the mail from Amazon.

Fortunately, I ordered things from Amazon, so I was supposed to get them.

George · « **Reply #154 on:** September 18, 2023, 11:39:18 PM »

One box contained one item.

George · « **Reply #155 on:** September 18, 2023, 11:41:33 PM »

The one item was a box of Rip Van Lemon Wafer Cookies:

These are really good.

George · « **Reply #157 on:** September 18, 2023, 11:42:53 PM »

I actually have them shipped automatically every three months.

George · « **Reply #158 on:** September 18, 2023, 11:43:11 PM »

With the automatic shipping, you get a discount.

I get one a month, cycling through each of those three flavors.

George · « **Reply #162 on:** September 18, 2023, 11:47:47 PM »

They do have other flavors, but there is such a thing a too much of a good thing.

George · « **Reply #163 on:** September 18, 2023, 11:47:59 PM »

George · « **Reply #164 on:** September 18, 2023, 11:48:07 PM »

So I just get those three.

George · « **Reply #165 on:** September 18, 2023, 11:48:32 PM »

I don't always go through a whole box in a month, but they stay good for quite a while.

George · « **Reply #166 on:** September 18, 2023, 11:48:53 PM »

And I have given some to my friend Shelly.

George · « **Reply #167 on:** September 18, 2023, 11:49:15 PM »

She likes them too, but mostly the lemon flavor.

George · « **Reply #168 on:** September 18, 2023, 11:49:28 PM »

Those are good, but I like all three flavors.

A few months ago, I tried the Rip Van AM YUM Strawberry Yogurt wafers:

George · « **Reply #170 on:** September 18, 2023, 11:53:29 PM »

They tasted good, but they don't have as much of the cream within the wafers as the square ones.

George · « **Reply #171 on:** September 18, 2023, 11:53:51 PM »

I really like the cream and the other shape has a lot of cream between the wafers.

George · « **Reply #172 on:** September 18, 2023, 11:55:07 PM »

And these strawberry yogurt flavored wafers seem to be no longer available...which is fine.

George · « **Reply #173 on:** September 18, 2023, 11:57:05 PM »

Someday, I might try the square Strawberry Rip Van Keto Wafer Cookies:

George · « **Reply #174 on:** September 18, 2023, 11:57:58 PM »

I don't know that I'd add them to the rotation.

George · « **Reply #175 on:** September 18, 2023, 11:59:05 PM »

If I did, I'd update the schedule and have each flavor once every four months.

George · « **Reply #176 on:** September 19, 2023, 12:01:19 AM »

Right now (I'm assuming it's a seasonal flavor

), they do have a Pumpkin Spice wafer:

George · « **Reply #177 on:** September 19, 2023, 12:01:52 AM »

There is such a thing as too much of a good thing.

George · « **Reply #178 on:** September 19, 2023, 12:01:58 AM »

George · « **Reply #179 on:** September 19, 2023, 12:02:12 AM »

So, I'll just stick with the three flavors that I'm getting right now.
