I'm sitting here making some cards while the rest of the house sleeps and snacking on some caramel coconut haystacks. Ugh. I shouldn't be but alas I am. I think there's something about the tv and scrapping that makes me want something. Do you snack and scrap? If so, what do you snack on?

Nope, I have a super strict "no food near the craft area" rule. Most of the time I just prefer to have music and a beverage.

I like to have some non-messy snacks at hand like M&M's. However I find I don't actually dip in all that often because my hands are busy. Now sit me in front of a TV or movie screen and that's a different story!!

Nope.
I'm not even a drinker scrapper.
Too worried about spilling on my layouts.
Or making smudgey chocolate marks all over them.

No. I'd never trust myself not to spill. Only allow Diet Coke in my scrap room. Lol

No for me, too. From time to time, if I can get in there early, a travel mug full of coffee. But that's all that's allowed in my scrap room.

Not me...no food or drink around. I am the messiest eater I know. I could make a mess eating flippin' Pez. Yet I persist in wearing white jeans, white shorts, white skirts....

I have something to drink like water or perhaps coffee or a diet coke. I try to put it in a spill proof cup or bottle because I am very clumsy. I do not have food because in addition to being clumsy I can also get messy (think glue or ink or whatever scrappy thing that can get stuck to your hands).

I don't allow food or drink outside of the kitchen except water. My kids can't seem to wrap their brains around my reasoning, they complain about how disgusting their dads carpet is while mine still smells new 3 years after being laid.
So water only in my craft room!

I used to. I used to eat mini peanut butter cups and the sugar high would keep me scrapping into the wee hours of the morning. If I tried that now I'd have sugar hangover the next day. There's no bouncing back these days now that I'm 10 years older. I keep some ice water or if I plan ahead some cucumber water nearby. That's about it. I'd like to have snacks but I hate to have to constantly wipe my hands if I eat anything sticky or chips.
If it's a chilly day I'll have tea but those are few and far between for me.

I try not to because of finger marks. But I do take snack breaks

Thankfully I'm not! It's probably the only time I'm not even thinking of food/snacks! I get way too caught up in what I'm doing... No time to have messy hands from snacks... My hands are messy with inks, glue, glitter... everything non-snack related. Gee, as I write this I think I've found the perfect diet! Scrapping!!

Not normally while scrapping other than a drink. I don't like the icky fingers from snacks. But I will break and have a snack, especially if I'm watching a movie (during the good part).

I cannot have a drink or food in the room because it usually ends badly. Doesn't stop me from going in the kitchen and snacking there. I'll snack on just about everything.

I have a hard enough time keeping ink smudges off my cards. Adding chocolate to the mix is just asking for trouble. I only take a water bottle in my craft room.

I don't snack while I'm making cards. I'm so paranoid I'll mess something up, so I keep all the food away from my crafting supplies.

I don't snack while scrapping but I have a horrible habit of snacking while reading a book.

scrapping at home, I don't eat anything and I always have something to drink around, but nowhere near my scrap desk.
if I'm scrapping with others (which I'm pretty sure hasn't been since 2008) I always eat and drink. weird!

I will drink bottled water so it can't spill if I accidentally knock it over otherwise my hands are usually to dirty to eat. I'm a bit of a germaphobe.

No, but only because I don't want to get my hands dirty with something that would transfer onto my layout. Plus I absolutely hate fingerprints on photos and even something like M&Ms leaves just enough grease behind on your fingers to put a print on the pictures.

Only neat snacks that won't get my fingers greasy or messy, and only drinks in covered containers. But that doesn't stop me from eating that stuff AWAY from my work area!

I don't snack at home, but will at a crop. Citrus flavored jelly bellies are my favs.

No, but I scrap on the dining room table, so snacks and beverages are only a few feet away if I need a break.

I generally don't but on the very rare occasion I do mix snacks and scrapping I eat Maltesers straight from the bag.

I stopped to snack while scrapping when I started my weight loss journey.

No, not at all. I do have my ice water with me wherever I go though. I have 3 desks so it's never sitting on a desk where I am creating.
