Your hands were made for making bread
Everyone should make bread. If you haven't made bread yet, do it. It's satisfying in a way that cooking other things isn't. It feels primal, even though agriculture and then grinding grains into flour was probably one of the first hallmarks of civilization. You have to get your hands into it, it involves mysterious processes with yeast, and it magically changes from pale and raw to brown and perfect. And it's perfect as it is--all you need is a smear of Earth Balance or even hummus if you're into wanting actual nutrition with your carbs. You can make into baguette or focaccia or buns or good-old sandwich bread and enjoy it for days. If you've never made bread before it'll be a revelation, and even if it's the hundredth time it's still perfectly magical.
