Hi Alton, First, very disappointed not to see you at the South Beach Wine & Food Festival, I was looking forward to the opportunity to meet you. Love your show - very creative and I can definately see how you've pulled a couple of different backgrounds into a career in culinary. I was just wondering if you'd have any advice for someone who's trying to break into this industry but doesn't want to be a chef? I'm just finishing my master's in public relations and marketing but don't want to do P.R. per se. I'm working in a wine and cheese shop now selling cheeses which I love but doesn't pay very well. Everyone else in this field seems to have a culinary background and I don't know if it's worth going back to school or if I could make it without the culinary degree. I'm having a bit of trouble thinking outside the box. Any suggestions? Books you can suggest? People I could talk to??? Thanks and keep up the great show!!! Laura
