I think I've found the quote (from a text on buddhism... can't remember where I found it) from which you get your title, 'The Zen Cook'! 
"...As the therapists interacted with her it became evident that much of her day was spent fantasising and imagining to avoid the anxiety of her life..."
-- Hmm... sounds like me 
"...The habit of fantasising was discussed with her and she was then was asked to undertake a "psychological procedure". To her surprise she was asked to bake a cake. However, she had to do it extremely mindfully with minute attention to every detail..."
-- Zen cookery!
