﴿ Acknowledgments ﴾
Once again, I would like to recognize my loved ones, but this book is unusual in that recipes and meals are often shared experiences, and this book exists in large part because of the people with whom I have shared so much of life related to eating and drinking.
In the immediate context, certain specific people have been blithe to try my various cocktails, including my son Camrin, dottyr Natalie, brother Jeff, and partner in not-commiting-actual-crimes Stacy.
Many of these recipes I have received while participating in and with families that have their own rich histories, so those are not my inventions; however, in such cases I will remain intentionally vague to respect people’s desire for privacy (while acknowledging here my sincere debt of gratitude).
