The First Kit

On 12/22/2008 I dove into infusing vodka. I had a very flimsy grasp on what I was doing. But I knew I needed a kit.

I started with a dozen 1-pint mason jars and additional lids.

I also grabbed two 1.75 litres of Seagram's vodka and a variety of ingredients.

Finally, amidst the confusion, I grabbed a nearly empty, leather-bound journal to record this mess.

Catching Up

So far, this blog is a recitation of the past.

I am trying to catch up to the present by telling my story.

Meanwhile, I thought this photo captured this early stage very well.
