The food and drink thread

Cooking/Baking/Food has the power to bring people together. This a relaxed fun thread about food and drinks. Snack food is also included. What are you eating and drinking throughout the day? My main passion is photography but I also like to bake cakes, pies, cookies, etc. One day I will put them together... no i am not baking my camera. To start I made an 18" Reeses's peanut butter cup.
