Cook to soothe the spirit

Cooking "is a very calming ritual. Its a different kind of stress relief than I get doing anything else," said the creator/star during a break from taping the show. "Slicing, dicing and chopping — the rhythm of that is something I enjoy and find relaxing. But I also really, really, really like to knead dough. I like the physical action of getting my hands into it. … I find that physically rewarding."Whether its biscuit making or "throwing something together" for dinner in 30 minutes, he finds "the labor of the kitchen, the doing of cooking and things in the kitchen to be amazingly stress reducing," Brown said. via Cook to soothe the spirit - chicagotribune.com.
