Birth of the idea!
Erica and I were having lunch at the Boca Resort when the lack of good bread came up agian. I told her, I always wanted to learn the craft of baking good bread. She replied, "why don't we open a bakery?" and just like that, the idea was born.
Erica made the trip back to Stockholm and within a week she was in contact with a local mill that started the sour dough trend in Sweden. They referred her to their Master Baker, Manfred, who was interested in meeting to discuss possibly teaching me the art of baking.
Not just any baking...ecologolical baking.
After Erica and Manfred met, she told me, "Manfred is open to you tagging along with him for 2 weeks and you will learn from the 'best'." The best eh? If he's the best, why would he want to spend his time teaching a realtor who has never baked a day in his life?! I decided to google Mr. Manfred and find out, he is the Best. This guy has traveled the globe teaching top bakers how to bake ecologically. He tells Erica, "if Nick is serious, he can come the first week in September." Wow, what an opportunity!
Sweden...here I come!!!
