Strawberries in January?

Well, I am back home now. I was supposed to arrive on Sunday night, but I didn't manage to get back until Monday afternoon. And my luggage didn't arrive until late Tuesday night! But despite the flight troubles, I did get home eventually, which is really the main point in the long run.

Today I was at the grocery store looking at the fruits, and they had strawberries! I was quite surprised to see them so early. These strawberries were grown in Florida. The only reasoning that makes sense to me is that the recent cold temperatures forced the growers to pick the berries earlier than expected to prevent them from dying. Still, it is pretty weird to be eating fresh strawberries in January. I guess it fits with the 75 degree weather we have now though.
