Wilson,

Do you have an e-mail address I could contact you at to further discuss product idea?

I've never had any formal training or experience but I have a pretty good knack for cooking and I definately have a passion for food. I looked into "The Natural Gourmet" Institute because they specialize in vegetarian/vegan an basically whole food, but I like the fact that FCI is acclerated (6 mos.) yet seems to be very thourough at the same time - I think they would give me a good foundation to work from and then maybe specialize after that to vegetarian cooking/macrobiotics. I'll be moving to Northern Cali. next month and will be living there for about 8 months then I'll be heading to NY to start school. I'm looking at getting a place in Brooklyn and ommuting in everyday, maybe Park Slope, B Heights around that area - any tips/suggestions as far as renting goes?

Wilson,
Welcome to the network, and thanks for the comments left on the discussion - Start up Costs, they were very helpful and encouraging. I would love to "pitch" my product idea your way just to get your initial thoughts, can I pm you? Also, I see you have a culinary background. I am currently employed w/ the Government but will be making a career change in 09’; anyhow I am considering attending the French Culinary Institute in NYC ... any thoughts about that school? Good to meet you and thanks again.
