As we transition from summer to fall, it's the perfect time to pair prime vegetables from each season.

And these zucchini, potato and scallion pancakes from Rec(ession)ipes beautifully capture the colors of autumn, while sneaking in the last tastes of summer. Pan-fried and topped with a dollop of chive sour cream, a glimpse at these almost makes up for the fact that we'll be seeing a lot less of the sun for a while. Almost.

Times are tough, but that doesn't mean we should stop sipping on drinks like this stylish sangria. In fact, an uncomfortable economic climate might be just the reason to sit down with a lavish-looking cocktail or two.

This sangria from REC(ession)IPES is made using rosé, crème de cassis, strawberries, raspberries and pineapple, and sparkles with seltzer. It's even somewhat nutritious, thanks to all of that beautiful fruit. Best of all: It costs less than a dollar per serving to make. We'll have three!
