Once upon a time, in the far back 1960s the idea of combining a coffee cafe and a bakery was not such a common idea…but in the small bustling town of Willowbrook, there lived a young and ambitious baker named Preston. Preston had a passion for creating delectable treats that made people's taste buds dance with delight. He also loved coffee in all sorts of blends and liked to experiment with new coffee drinks.He dreamt of opening his own bakery, where he could share his baked goods and coffee with the world.
In the nineteen sixty’s young people were becoming tuned in and turned on. Music festals like Woodstock opened the world to the youth quake of flower power, and rock music. Along with the British Invasion of the Beatles and Rolling Stones and the model Twiggy and Carnaby Street and Kings Road fashion! And the sexual revolution was happening, including even the idea of same sex couples! Young Preston was aware of all these changes through Life Magazine and watching TV. Even Willowbrook saw hints of things changing, the dream of change Preston had as he worked as Elston’s Barkery was of his own new kind of place, where the old and new could meet and eat…
Preston baked and thought and planed and sought out assorts of guidance in starting his business even in some unorthodox places…
One evening, as rumors spread through the town about a renowned medium named Madame Leclair and her extraordinary abilities, Preston's curiosity got the better of him. Eager to explore the unknown, he decided to attend one of Madame Leclair's seances.
