One Drunk Night - Totally Easy Rhubarb Strawberry Crumble



















You know those boxes of wine you can buy? The ones that are the equivalent to four bottles of wine, and cost about $12? The boxes you pick up and scoff at, turning to your friends you say, I could drink this - easy! The box whose label claims it will stay fresh for up to six weeks after opening, (srsly, six weeks? Who has wine that lasts that long?) and again, you scoff, I can drink this tonight, easy!  You say.
I know that wine. And trust me, no one should want to or attempt to drink that much bad wine in one night. Think about it, you just paid $3 a bottle, you don't srsly expect it to be good, do you? 
In any case, if you do decide drinking a box of wine while listening to classic 80's rock is a great idea (it's truly fun that night, the next morning - not so much) then I suggest doing what I did. Make this (before too much wine) and eat it warm out of the oven with vanilla ice cream while swaying happily to Hootie and the Blowfish. Good times. 

3 cups sliced fresh strawberries
2 cups sliced fresh rhubarb 
1 cup flour
1/2 cup sugar 
1/2 cup oats (I panicked and used an instant oatmeal package, worked just fine) 
1 teaspoon salt 
2/3 cup melted butter

Preheat oven to 375degrees F. 
Arrange fruit in a 9x9 baking dish. 
In a separate bowl, mix all other ingredients together.
Sprinkle over fruit. 
Bake for about 20 mins, or until bubbly. 

I added a Tablespoon of Silk Road's Vanilla Sugar with Lavender. It was excellent!
