To the loves of my life: Eric and our baby Alia, who was born three months before the manuscript was due! Thank you for your patience, support and hard work to help me finish this book.
To my teachers: Kevin Kelley, master meadmaker; Jeff Spurlin, beer brewer and punster extraordinaire; and Margo “Owl” Crim, and her rich, sweet wines.
To Colleen Codekas, for helping to connect me to Page Street Publishing, and for being a wonderful creative ally in the herbal community.
To Jen CK Jacobs, for her amazing photography and food styling skills, and for being a breeze to work with. A dream come true!
To Page Street Publishing, for having a vision for what we could create together and offering me this amazing opportunity. Sarah (congratulations!), Karen, Meg and everyone involved has been a delight.
