LOL. X bakes brownies - double and quadruple batches.
I don't find that sewing really provides relief from stress or anxiety, but then I make tailored things, suits and such ... I'm learning to knit, have only made a few scarves and a hat so far, but it seemed good for keeping hands moving. OTOH last week I was very nerved up and sewed a scarf from a piece of cashmere fabric, basically just straight seams around the edges and then fringed them, then sewed on a 'custom cashmere blend' label, and that was a quick-accomplishment project that made me feel really good, or at least less irritated at things I couldn't control.
