Links: Strawberries, Maple Syrup Grading, and a Winner

It took the better part of a week, but life is finally settling down into a normal rhythm again. It’s been a pleasure to cook regular food (I love jam, but after weeks of demos, it’s nice to make savory things), walk around my neighborhood, and sleep in my own bed. I do have a number of events coming up this week and next, but they’re all within driving distance of home, which is so nice. Now, links!
