It is that time of year when young female entrepreneurs converge on doorsteps and storefronts across the United States to sell sweet baked goods. Wednesday marks the start of Girl Scout cookie season, and in addition to the classics, Girl Scouts will also be selling a new cookie flavor. The new cookie is caramel chocolate chip. According to Girl Scouts of America, it consists of caramel, semisweet chocolate chips and a hint of sea salt in a chewy, gluten-free cookie. It is the first new cookie unveiled by the Girl Scouts since 2015. The number of cookie offerings from the Girl Scouts is now up to 12. Cookie prices vary nationally as proceeds stay with local scout groups."Through the Girl Scout Cookie Program, cookie customers help fund life-changing Girl Scout experiences while building the next generation of female entrepreneurs," said GSUSA CEO Sylvia Acevedo. "And because all Girl Scout Cookie proceeds stay local to power year-round troop projects and activities, when you buy Girl Scout Cookies you are making an investment in girls and in your local community. Although there is not a direct online ordering option, individual scouts and their groups can offer their supply through the Girl Scouts’ digital cookie program. For more info, click 1275

Late last Saturday night, Ethan Crispo had just left a friend's birthday party in Birmingham, Alabama, and walked into a Waffle House around midnight to grab a bite.Crispo told CNN only a single employee was working in the restaurant.He described the cook's face, as "awash in bewilderment," at finding he was by himself managing the night shift.More than 30 people were there eating, and there was just one man left to "fend off the incoming crowd of hungry, heavily imbibed customers," Crispo said.He became resigned to going home on an empty stomach.But a customer finished his meal, asked for an apron and stepped behind the counter to wash dishes."It was a smooth transition," Crispo, 24, said. "He just busted his butt and helped out."'It was one of my most memorable experiences'Crispo said he asked Ben, the lone associate working, who the man washing dishes was.Turns out he didn't work at the restaurant, nor did he work at a Waffle House anywhere.Another woman, wearing a dress and heels, also stepped up. She walked behind the counter to get a coffee pot."At first I thought it was out of necessity, like she just wanted coffee," Crispo said. But she was enlisting as a second member of the volunteer staff.The two worked together in a team, busing tables, stacking cups and washing dishes. Meanwhile, Ben, the actual employee, manned the cash register and cooked at the grill.The man washing dishes occasionally "had to ask Ben where stuff should go," Crispo said, but otherwise it was as though though two strangers, without even talking to each other, had spontaneously learned to run a restaurant in tandem.Pat Warner, a spokesman for Waffle House, told CNN the store had a miscommunication about the duty roster that night, and it had created "a little gap" in staffing."We're very appreciative and thankful, but we do prefer to have our associates behind the counter," Warner said.He added that Waffle House restaurants tend to have a special sense of community. He recalled a similar time in 2014 when diners volunteered to keep a restaurant running when paid staff couldn't get to work during Atlanta's notorious Snowmageddon storm.But, for Crispo it was the first time, and it'll stick out to him for years to come, as an example of humanity at its best."I've never seen anything like this ever happen, nor will I again, probably," Crispo said. "It was one of my most memorable experiences." 2424

It's a reality on health care that so many of us are living. A new survey released by West Health and Gallup finds 65 million adults had a health issue in the past year, but they didn't get treatment for it because of the cost. One of the biggest issues of health care costs is the surprise medical bills. The issue has become such a problem, Congress held its first-ever congressional hearing on surprise medical bills Tuesday. “If your kid gets hurt playing soccer and you go to an [emergency doctor], there's a really good chance you're gonna get a surprise medical bill,” says Frederick Isasi. Isasi is the executive director for Families USA, an advocacy group for health care consumers. “More people are scared of hospital bills and health care bills than getting sick,” Isasi says. “That's where we are as a nation. There's more harm happening in this country, in some ways psychologically, around the cost of health care than actually being scared about their health.” Isasi and others testified about the need for federal laws to protect patients, including making hospitals and doctors provide billing costs upfront and putting a cap on costs. A new survey found in the past year, Americans borrowed billion to pay for health care, because they couldn't afford it. “Almost half of Americans, they have less than 0 in saving, so a surprise medical bill for ,000 means, ‘I'm gonna have to miss my car payment, miss my mortgage payment. I'm gonna have to take out of my retirement account,’” Isasi says. But at Tuesday’s hearing, lawmakers openly admitted finding a real solution will be a challenge. “The problem is this whole process of health care is so complex,” Rep. Rick Allen (R-Georgia) relayed at the hearing. Rep. Susan Wild (D-Pennsylvania) agreed, stating “the solutions I’m hearing don't really sound very workable in the context of our present medical system, and that's where I really struggle to understand how we're gonna fix this.” Some states have passed legislation to try and protect patients from surprise bills, but about 60 percent of employer-based plans are governed by federal law, not state law. 2153
