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

Every lunch hour Barry picked up a can of dog food at the deli, went across the street to a park bench, and ate the whole can with evident gusto. A doctor who happened to pass through the park regularly couldn't help noticing Barry's behavior and finally couldn't resist offering some advice. "I'm an internist," he explained, "and I think you should know that stuff isn't a very healthy diet for a human. In fact, eating it could kill you." "Thanks for the advice, Doc," said Barry, wolfing down another forkful, "but I've been eating it for years now and I feel fine." The doctor shrugged and walked off. A few months later he noticed Barry was missing from his bench, and after a while he asked another park regular what had happened. "He's dead." The doctor shook his head, "I told him that dog food would kill him." "It wasn't the dog food that did it," the fellow reported. "He was sitting on the curb licking his balls when a truck backed over him."
