My favorite mint items in no particular order:
Girl Scout Thin Mints (duh!)
McDonald's shamrock shake (I made a date drive me to three different McD's looking for this on my birthday. It was sold out everywhere. Weird...I haven't heard from him since....)
Mrs. Cavanaugh's Mindy Mint truffles/egg with my name on it (can be purchased at Harmon's which is dangerously convenient.)
Mint Brownies (at Kneaders, Food for Thought, home made...I'm not picky.)
Utah mint truffle bar (I eat these like a candy bar)
Junior Mints (in a pinch)
Golden Spoon mint frozen yogurt.
If I were smart, I would be giving up mint for Lent each year (the six weeks before Easter)...then I would look smokin' in my Easter dress. But I'm not smart..I'm hungry. Bring me more mint!

That golden spoon looks Sooo good. It needs crushed Oreos though.
Meh, I'm not usually a mint fan, but ooh, those GS Thin Mints--you're speakin' my language!
Chuche is such a huge mint fan--he will love this post.
Brooke--this post made me think about this McDonald's commercial...

I'm with you on Thin Mints...the best Girl Scout cookies by far, but no one came by to sell any to us this year! Maybe it's a good thing though...I hear they're up to $4 a box!
I think I may go make some mint brownies right now...
Oh man. I could eat every one of these straight off the computer screen. And those Utah truffles ARE candy bars and should be eaten in one sitting. Do other people think otherwise?
Can't believe I only had one shamrock shake this year. I should've stocked up.
Greg - the cookies are still $3.50 BUT the boxes are smaller. Makes it even easier and faster to finish off a "sleeve."
I've got to get on those Shamrock shakes next year!
You just made me want to eat the rest of the thin mints in the cupboard. i LOVE mint! Mint and chocolate is a little piece of Heaven on Earth. I think it's what God gave us to get through this life (is that all way too dramatic???)
Linda--I read Ashley's post about your visit and my only comment is that you guys are welcome to come visit our house anytime! I'm sure that they were sad to see you leave! :(
All this talk of Thin Mints is making me hungry for some...if I get too desperate, I may have to try eBay.
I loathe mint ... but the brownies look very yummy!
Glad you had a good birthday.
I have my annual Shamrock shake every year. So goood. Oh, and I make a shamrock milk shake cupcake recipe with a Andes mint glaze on top. It's sinful.
