I eat cookies every day.  My morning workout is to lift my coffee mug for an accasional sip in between bites of cookies.  I don't like to get "in a rut", so I do vary the kind of cookie.   The last few years, I've increased my workout to twice a day, adding an evening session with a big glass of milk instead of the coffee.  When I'm feeling really energetic/ gung-ho I'll pass on the evening cookies and do a really serious workout on pie and ice cream.  works for me

other than that, I just stay active year round.  The best workout for canoeing is canoeing, so I try to do as much of that as I can - but it doesn't matter what activity it is, as long as I'm doing something (other than chores, that is).  Drove 160 miles thru a blizzard last Fri to do an overnight trip of about 29 miles with the club - Everyone else was doing the trip as a 3-day, but I only had the weekend, so I got to solo out, which meant I could set a good pace for the exercise - cranked out 14 river miles in 2 hr and 10 - that was a lot more fun than weight lifting - heck, it was even more fun than pie and ice cream!
