This is turning out to be one hectic Summer for me, phew! I thought I’d have more time to myself and to blog, but it hasn’t exactly panned out.
I just came back last night, folks. Late, late night. And already I’ll have to repack my suitcase for another trip.
This time to take my son to his new student orientation.
But at least I’ll be driving. I’m just not a fan of airports. More accurately, sitting and waiting at airports.
Anyway, I’m bringing back voting for features, folks. I just simply didn’t have the time to organize for cohosts this week. I lost track of time completely. Traveling will do that to you.
But voting was fun, wasn’t it? And to those who missed it the last time, here’s your chance to participate.
I’m looking for volunteers to cohost next week, though. Please let me know. The first two people to do so will be it! So who’s it gonna be?
Now, Features!
Graham Tiramisu
from Jhuls @ The Not So Creative Cook
“I love the substitution of graham crackers for lady fingers here. The combination of the graham cracker flavor with strong coffee sounds just AMAZING.” — Jess
“A winner! Need I say more?” — Angie
Churma Laadoo
from Sandhya @ Indfused
“I love this recipe. I call it the Indian answer to cake pops. A delicious snack for kids and adults alike. Sandhya has given us a wonderful take on a classic Indian treat.” — Suzanne
“This is so unusual. In a wonderful way. Easy, nutritious, and delicious! What more can you ask?” — Angie
Ottolenghi’s Tomato & Pomegranate Salad
from Josette @ thebrookcook
“I love everything from Ottolenghi and Josette’s adaptation of this great salad makes for a delicious and beautiful seasonal salad. I love everything about it but especially impressive is Josette’s Za’atar. Amazing.” — Suzanne
Sweet Potato Bhajji (Chickpea Flour Battered Sweet Potato Fritters)
from Anjana @ Happy and Harried
“I love sweet potatoes and I love a good fritter. These are both. FTW.” — Jess

I volunteer! I volunteer! I am saying it the way Katniss Everdeen did at The Hunger Games movie. Hahaha. I am available next week, Angie. 🙂 And yes, voting is fun. 😀
Thanks for the feature, pretty ladies! x
You’re it, Jhuls!! Hurray!! May the odds be ever in your favor, haha… Thanks, darlin! XOXO
Haha! It’s my pleasure, Angie! Now, you have a relax before your next trip. 🙂
🙂 🙂
to relax*
It happens when you are excited! 😀 x
Oh gosh… I’m starving after looking at all these delights! And lunchtime is so far away! LOL. Safe journey, Angie. Hugs
Lol, Tegan! I’m with you! And nothing in my fridge at all, since I just came back last night! I have a box of chocolate, though, hehe…
Lovely features as always! 🙂
Thanks!! So glad you like! 🙂
Cohosting sounds fun…but I”m not sure what it entails? And that salad is practically screaming to be made this weekend!!!
I’ll email you the cohosting guidelines, Colleen. What’s your address? Thanks for volunteering! XOXO
Sounds great! faithhopeloveandluck@yahoo.com
Thanks! Will email you as soon as I have the chance.
Fantastic features this week!
Glad you approve, Antonia! Happy FF!
I’m glad you know when too much is too much and won’t let hosting get you stressed out. Smart to ask for volunteers. Another beautiful line up! Happy FF!
Thanks, Deb! And if you ever feel like cohosting, please let me know. You haven’t done it, have you? It’s easy but does require time, but most tell me it’s fun to do ? Just holler if you want to, ok? ?
I would like to, but not sure I have the time… sometimes it’s all I can do to post a recipe. I think it would be fun and if I get a spare minute I’d love to!
Love the features as always! Happy FF 🙂
Thank you much, Sarah! Hope you’re enjoying your summer! XOXO
Awesome features, Angie!! Sounds like you are having a whirlwind summer! Never feel guilty about not having enough time to blog, because we all know how much time ti really takes!! You just enjoy your summer and your family, and voting is an excellent way to pick features! Cheers! Have a great trip! 😀
Thanks for that! I do sometimes feel guilty for not updating the blog as much I would like, so it feels good to have someone who understands ? I’m hoping by next week I’ll have some free time, though, but then of course we’ll be at the height of summer when it’s so hot you won’t feel like cooking! Can’t win, lol! I’ll figure it out some day, Julianna! XOXO
beautiful features, they look absolutely delicious! It sounds like you are busy! I actually love airports, somehow I see it as me time and it is a given place to actually read a book! But this was when I travelled alone most of the time for business! Let me know if you need another co host for next week! 🙂 xx
I enjoyed traveling much more when I was younger; I must be getting old, boo hoo… But I do want to expose my kids to different places, cultures, etc. My parents did that to me and it’s made me open-minded. At least I think I am ? If you can, I would love to have you cohost FF130 July 29 with Judi. Not next Friday, but the week after. Please let me know. XOXO
Great features – not sure which one to try first. It has been a couple of months and I would be happy to co-host when you need one. I love driving trips more than flying – for me it is relaxing and a good way to see the sites. Enjoy your weekend – your son must be off to college this fall 🙂
The son will be off to college next month; I’m not sure he’s ready. By that I mean I’M NOT ready, lol! They all grow up so fast! So, can you take FF130 July 29? Not next Friday, but the week after? Most likely with Petra. Please let me know and thanks for volunteering! XOXO
You can count on me for the 29th Angie. I would love to co-host with Petra or anyone! I know what you mean about the kids growing up too fast – one minute they’re babies and the next… 🙂
Happy Fiesta Friday! Thank you so much for the feature- you made my day! <3 I'm in such good company too. 🙂 Voting for features sounds like fun- I missed it last time somehow. Enjoy your travels!
Love that salad!! I’ve made it a couple of times. So good, isn’t it? Okay now, make sure you don’t forget to vote this time. Come back on Tuesday to cast your vote! ?
Hi Angie, lovely selection of delicious-ness as usual. I’d love to co-host some time soon – keen to get across what it involves – can you email me at feastwisely@gmail.com? Thanks! Laura
Thanks, Laura! And I can definitely use your help in cohosting. I will let you know which week and email you the guidelines as soon as I figure out the schedule, ok? ?
Laura, would you do FF131 August 5? Let me know!
Hi Angie – sounds great – just send me across the guidelines and I’ll have a read but yes pencil me in for 5 August! Laura
Angie, I am still doing my happy dance for the Churma laadoo being featured on Fiesta Friday! Thank you so much!
Do let me know if you need help co-hosting. I am a novice so would need guidance but am willing to help. My e-mail is sandhya_nadkarni@hotmail.com
You’re welcome! I love that recipe. Would love to have you as a cohost. Can you do FF132 August 12? Let me know and I’ll put you down and send you the guidelines ?
Thanks Angie. Yes I can do FF132 August 12. Do send me the guidelines please. I am a newbie at this 🙂
