Once a month I treat myself to a couple of Loveland Sweets (a local candy store) handmade caramels. My most favorites of favorites. I carefully untwist one end of the wax paper wrapper and take tiny bites to make it last.

I try not to snack while stitching, but when I "have" to have something, I usually go for pretzels -- not greasy, and the small ones are just a mouthful, so no crumbs. If I "require" a messy snack, I do stop stitching and wash my hands afterward.SharoninStLouishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14843065242588248125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36035632.post-76912412640853514422011-07-25T11:32:58.785-07:002011-07-25T11:32:58.785-07:00I don't snack & stitch ... but I do usuall...I don't snack & stitch ... but I do usually have something to drink.

Otherwise I have to stop, eat, wash my hands and start stitching again. Plus, I try not to keep open soda cans or coffee cups anywhere near my stitching.
