What Writers Snack On

Today is a writing day for me. Yesterday was a teaching day at the university. Not yet sure what tomorrow holds - likely more writing. But here's the thing, I'm having trouble staying on it today because I'm so hungry. I keep wandering into the kitchen and staring into the fridge. Ever have days like that?

In an effort to find the perfect fuel for writing, I sought to learn what famous writers ate.

Help me out, what do you think would make a good snack on a writing day? What's your favorite snack?

    My homemade spicy oatmeal, cranberry, and chocolate chip cookies with a fresh brewed cup of coffee. Believe it or not, they are uber healthy and SO delicious!

    Let's see... chocolate, chocolate, and chocolate. :) If it doesn't get the creative juices flowing for me, nothing will!

    Right now I am working on my dissertation and I try and always have a nice cup of green tea by my side. I try not to snack too much while I write but when I do I go for popcorn or salted pumpkin seeds.

    Chocolate is always a good choice.

    But k's salted pumpkin seeds and green tea sounds like a great combo. Healthy too.

    Believe me, if they did, I'd send a whole box to the P31 office!! Everything is fresh, so they only last a few days. I make a batch and freeze them all. Whenever I want a couple, I stick 'em in the microwave for 30seconds and they taste like they just came out of the oven. {Pardon me as I mop up my drool over here...}

    Ok, I'll email you the recipe when I get a chance :).

    You won't be impressed. Frozen grapes and pecans. Sadly, they do NOT help my writing!! Miss you sweet friend.
