apropos of John Lennon

I recently read an excerpt from the last interview that John Lennon gave to writer David Sheff in 1980 for Playboy magazine.. He just started by asking John what he’d been doing.
LENNON: I’ve been baking bread

PLAYBOY: bread?

LENNON: After I made the loaves, I felt like I had conquered something. But as I watched the bread being eaten, I thought, “Well Jesus! Don’t I get a gold record or knighted or nothing?”

so this being the anniversary month of Lennon’s passing… I thought this was apropos of something.. anyway I love John Lennon and I love to know that he had discovered baking bread the last years of his life..
