i'm not the one you need

I have some sangria chilling in the fridge (I was never going to drink that bottle of wine as is, and I haven't made sauce in forever), I have the butter and cream cheese getting to room temperature so I can make lemon poppyseed cream cheese cookies, and I was planning on oven risotto for dinner, and then either fried risotto cakes or a frittata

Thanks for the link--those cookies look amazing!! I hope they turn out well!

They taste great! Though mine are a little flatter than the ones in her pictures. Hmm...

Agh! You are making me hungry! You're worse than tumblr.

What kind of red wine do you make sangria with?

[musesfool]

Hee! I will take that as a compliment!

I used the bottle of cabernet sauvignon someone gave me for Secretaries Day. You're supposed to use dry red wine, I guess. Also, I suggest upping the amount of sugar suggested in the recipe I linked, because wow, it is not sweet at all. I think the lemon has overpowered everything. (Yes, I only let it sit three hours before I tried it, rather than overnight, but I don't think it's going to get sweeter!)

I love this risotto. For serious. It is perfect no matter what I mix into it.

Isn't it great? And no standing and stirring. I especially like that part of it. *g*
