Why is it that drawings of food make us so happy? Maybe it's similar to how real books are so much better than the movie adaptations -- we get to use our imagination. Imagine our delight when we stumbled upon Mary MacNaughton's illustrations of famous authors and their go-to snacks as posted on the New York Times' web site.
Nuh-uh. So so awesome.
For some of us, it's Peanut M&Ms. That wouldn't look as distinguished as a cold old fashioned cocktail or dainty crudite, but hey, it's how we roll.
What do you snack on while you work?

Support the independent voice of Phoenix and help keep the future of New Times free.
Keep Phoenix New Times Free... Since we started Phoenix New Times, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Phoenix, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Phoenix with no paywalls.
