I don’t snack a lot. When I do, it’s usually chocolate or nuts, or better yet chocolate with nuts. Chocolate almonds are my Kryptonite, a weakness I can’t overcome. If we have a bag of chocolate almonds in the cupboard, I get drawn to them and I end up making several trips to ‘visit them’ in a night. “Last handful,” I repeatedly say to myself on my second and third time to the cupboard.

That said, most days I don’t treat myself. I have dinner and that’s the last food I have for the day. No desert, no treats.

However, every now and again I like to treat myself. I like to indulge in a little snack, or buy myself an apple fritter, or dig into a cinnamon bun. I don’t view it as a reward for anything, it’s not a special occasion, it’s just a simple indulgence.

As long as it’s not chocolate almonds, it’s something I don’t overdo. I think because I don’t do it often, it makes a simple treat seem special.

How do you treat yourself?
