Sangria! Sangria!
Incredible! We loved this recipe! Used Trentare 33 red wine ($6/bottle @ Trader Joe's), which was perfectly dry for this recipe. Left out the sugar, cherries, and carbonated water. I didn't have frozen lemonade concentrate, so I used an extra 1/4 cup of fresh lemon juice. Served over ice. Delicious!

Dutch Apple Pie with Oatmeal Streusel
The topping is amazing, I would absolutely use it again. The filling isn't great because like so many other reviewers said, it's very runny. I doubled the amount of flour (so a total of 4 TB flour) and I added 2 TB of cornstarch to guarantee a thick syrupy filling. That didn't happen ... After a few pieces were cut, the liquid started leaking out so there was a layer of apple-cinnamon liquid on the bottom of the pan. It didn't affect the taste too much, but it wasn't pretty to look at. I would use the same topping for a different filling recipe next time.

Pie Crust IV
I usually don't have much luck with pie crusts, but I needed two for Thanksgiving, so I gave this recipe my best shot. I made a double recipe, and before starting I had the shortening in the freezer all day. Without a pastry cutter or food processor, I cut up the shortening in the flour using a pizza cutter. I put ice water in by the tablespoon, adding about 2/3 cup in total, and tossing the mixture with a fork after each addition. I put the dough in the freezer for about 30 minutes before I rolled it out.
