If you're ever in Stillwater, MN and want some caffeine, you should stop in at the Daily Grind Espresso Cafe. They offer up the finest coffee in town, AND a platform to do serious networking with entrepreneurs of all kinds. It's simply a hub for indie-business types, and it's where I met Barb Brandt and her daughter Molly.
Barb and Molly are two of the most adventurous people I've met: Barb is a travel-junkie and has been to so many places she could serve as U.S. ambassador to the world, and Molly has been to almost as many places, with a brief hiatus to become a fantastic chef and graduate from the CIA in record time. (By the way, that's Culinary Institute of America to all us laymen, not C.I.A. like spies and stuff.)
Well, I was sipping coffee when Barb and Molly told me about their latest project: setting up culinary-focused villa vacations in Tuscany. They needed a website and I was hooked. Hello people, we're talking about pampered vacations: Molly will cook for you, you'll have a personal English-speaking concierge named Giorgio, and Barb will make sure everything you need is taken care of on your stay.
I was thrilled when Barb and Molly asked me to do the writing for their site: when I was punching my computer keys, I literally traveled to Italy in my mind and took a virtual vacation (yes, I know I'm nuts). If you have time today, jump over to their site and take a mini-vacation as well. Better yet, book a real vacation: I know you won't be sorry!
