Cooking instruction summary:

Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan and whisk while it heats over medium heat, until all sugar is dissolved. Continue to simmer for 7-9 minutes, until sugar has dissolved, strawberries have broken down a bit, and liquid has turned a deep, syrupy pink. Remove from heat and let cool for 15-20 minutes.When syrup has cooled, strain it into a medium sized bowl to remove all fruit chunks and thyme leaves. The recipe below is for 2 margaritas at a time, but you’ll have enough simple syrup to make around 6. Save any extra syrup in the fridge for up to a week!Run a citrus (lime, orange, lemon) wedge around the rim of each glass and dip the glass edges into sugar or salt (I used sugar). If you don’t have any citrus, you can run water around the glass with a finger – it works just as well. Fill glasses with ice and set aside.In a shaker, combine simple syrup, lime juice, and tequila. Shake over ice until chilled, then pour over ice into prepared glasses.Slice some strawberries in half until just below the stems, then slip them over the edge of each glass to garnish. Also add a sprig of thyme to each glass for garnish. Serve immediately.

Food Joke

The local courtroom was packed as testimony began in the sentencing hearing of a woman convicted of murdering her husband of 20 years by poisoning his coffee. The defense attorney knew he had his work cut out for him trying to make his client appear more sympathetic to the Judge, especially since she had been so "matter-of-fact" about the whole thing all during the trial. "Mrs. Roth," he began, "was there any point that morning where you felt pity for your husband?" "Well... yeah... I guess..." she replied. "And when was that?" pressed the attorney. "Well...," she replied, "when he asked for his third cup."
