Breadmaking as a therapeutic exercise

Reposted from a comment elsewhere:

If you buy a pack of yeast there's a recipe printed on the side. 1 lb flour, 1 tsp yeast, 1 tsp sugar, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 pint warm water. Beat the living daylights out of it, abandon it to its miserable fate and see how it likes it, beat the living daylights out of it again, let it recover, and just as it thinks it's safe, tip it head-first into the fucking oven. HA. That'll show it.

I really enjoyed reading this aloud to sinboy, though I'm not sure it increased his interest in bread-baking. *)
