On the weekends, I read while I eat breakfast.

No, it's too distracting.

I'll have something to drink while reading, but I try not to eat while I'm reading because it is a little distracting and I tend to just mindlessly eat.

If I'm able to snack while I'm reading then I'm probably not immersed in the story. In fact I have to remember to stay hydrated when I'm really into a book!

I like reading quietly"..i don't eat or drink" because if it is a good book" it would be hard for me to put the book down. :)

Eating and reading go hand in hand. It is Like popcorn and movie, you can't have one without the other. I always have finger foods or snacks beside me while reading. I find that if get to a high suspense part or a really exciting part of the book i reach for fingers foods more frequently. Grapes, cheese cubes, chocolate bits, and crackers(any kind) works great for me. What are some foods you eat or snack on while reading?

No, am usually fully absorbed in what I'm reading. Tea or coffee would only go cold if I did that - I have to schedule breaks for that!
