TiaScout 10 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Anybody? I've not been able to find any explanations of the MICE acronym (mentioned in the council's own IPs for Outdoor Cooking in GS Central Texas and GS Central Maryland). Link to post Share on other sites
scoutldr 732 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 I checked several acronym websites and the closest I can come is "Money, Ideology, Coercion and Ego" (reasons people become spies...or cooks, maybe)?? Don't have a clue. Also found several sites on how to properly cook a mouse. Link to post Share on other sites
Hal_Crawford 15 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 More Ice Cream for Everyone. No? Well it sounded like a good idea. Link to post Share on other sites
momma_bee 10 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 If it helps the rest of us, the requirement reads "Review what M.I.C.E. stands for and how you should follow it when cooking and cleaning up." And, I will admit reading it this summer and since I was clueless, deciding it was a requirement that we would skip. (yes, that option exists in Girl Scouts, sometimes, sort of) I found the mouse cooking tips too. Scary. Measure Ingredients Carefully and Efficently???? Link to post Share on other sites
Hal_Crawford 15 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Given the context (...when cooking and cleaning up) I would guess that it has something to do with sanitation. What it stands for is beyond me. Link to post Share on other sites
momma_bee 10 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 It is fun to try and guess. If Tia doesn't beat me too it, I may call and ask. M____ I__________ Contaminated Environment? Link to post Share on other sites
shortridge 184 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 ____ ______ Camping Experience? Link to post Share on other sites
AlFansome 10 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Browsing my wife's leader and SafetyWise books, I found "minimal impact camping". Connect that with something I found on Yahoo! Answers and you get: Minimal Impact Camping Experience Link to post Share on other sites
momma_bee 10 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 That works It also would mean that Girl Scout's renamed Leave No Trace for their own use, but hey... Link to post Share on other sites
Hal_Crawford 15 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 There was discussion in another thread of merging the BSA and GSUSA. If that happened you could use EDGE to teach MICE. Hal Link to post Share on other sites

Nachamawat 10 Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Could this be used as a lesson in the Gern Badge? Link to post Share on other sites
SSScout 1615 Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 Acronymically speaking, KISMIF (Cub Scout mantra) LSMFT (Little Scouts Make Fine Tentpegs) This from my days as a Scout... my mom was a smoker. Don't know why the PTB (powers that be) did away with OWLETS (Outdoor Webelos Leader Extra Training Session) and made it something else. Link to post Share on other sites
Hal_Crawford 15 Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 I've always liked "BFO": Blinding Flash of the Obvious. Link to post Share on other sites
