Fandom Snowflake Challenge: Day 5, a non-fannish thing

Today's challenge is about sharing something non-fannish with my f-list.  Usually I'm not one to share personal details with my f-list because I'm paranoid that someone will do a Google search and figure out who I am IRL.  But I have to share something I do that isn't fannish, and here it is: I bake.

Without delving deep into information I've put elsewhere on the internet, initially I thought I was a cook.  But cooking (professionally) taxed me out.  It was too stressful and I turned into an emotionless shell.  I had to leave.  

Now that I'm far away from the world of professional cookery, I've discovered that I can make damn good pastries.  I don't have any photos to show you all, but I've made things as simple as pizza dough and as complex (not really) as pies and cheesecakes.  I regret possibly making pastries for about 1/3 of the day a career.  Then again, maybe not.
