in Goal: Maintaining Weight
One of the nice things about maintaining after all this time is that always seem to have a bunch of extra calories left at the end of the day. I usually have ice cream around 9PM, but that's only 100 or so calories for 1/4 cup and I don't want more that that. I'm usually looking for 200 or so.

Lately I've been going for brie or Stilton on Ryvita crackers or homemade bread. Any other suggestions? I'm looking for something savory, not sweet. What's your favorite splurge?

    A few slices of bacon and cabbage fried together. Simple and so good.

    My favorite savory splurge is buttered toast dipped in a sunny side up egg. Sooooo good!

    Red wine (I like Shiraz, Lambrusco, a Rose called Santa Digna ... just to name a few) and cheese ... Naked Goat (Mucia Curado), Petit Basque, Drunken Goat, and Manchego, are some of my favorites ... All kinds of nuts ... Dried dates and figs (Turkish) are yummy too ...

    Hot buttered toast - hopefully homemade bread, either a nice seedy granary loaf, or a white sourdough, (or maybe an English muffin or a bagel or a crumpet) generously spread with real butter. Sometimes jam or marmalade on it, although that's making it sweet.

    Or, cheese of some kind. Something tasty. A strong gouda, or mature cheddar, or manchego, or Stilton.

    Or, a couple of spoonfuls of peanut/almond/cashew/hazelnut butter.

    Or, some salted roasted pistachios.

    Occasionally, marinated green olives with capers and/or cheese and/or anchovies.

    Favorite splurge is rewarding myself once a week with frozen yogurt topped with any/all the toppings I feel like that day! Yum!
