What’s up, peeps?!
I’m a little preoccupied this week. Family matters, mom duties, that sort of thing. I didn’t spend much time in the kitchen. So, pardon the absence of recipe posts this week.
But it’s not like there’s a lack of recipes around here. Just look at all the Fiesta Friday links. Many, many of them are of five-star quality.
That’s precisely why, except for the two I received as gifts, I haven’t bought any new cookbook since Fiesta Friday started.
Hey, maybe we can all get together and publish our own Fiesta Friday Cookbook. Wouldn’t that be something?
We dream big dreams here at Fiesta Friday, peeps!
Now, Features!
Roasted Carrot, Golden Beet And Goat Cheese Tart With Dukkah from Suzanne @ apuginthekitchen
“This is just so beautiful! I know Suzanne was one of the co-hosts, but hey, I can’t help but notice when something catches my eye. And this tart really does! Gorgeous!” — Angie
Nougat de Montélimar from Ginger @ Ginger&Bread
“This looked magical…like a mesmerizing tower of dreams. I am sure I could not pull this off but Ginger made this perfection look easy. She even make it sound a bit healthier by adding extra nuts and cranberries” — Zeba
Celebrating Black History Month from Loretta @ Safari of the mind
“This is such a beautiful post, poignant, touching and so well written. Loretta takes us on an emotional journey, her photographs and narrative are so beautiful. This gorgeous post, IMHO, deserves to be featured.” — Suzanne
Samosa Galette from Shelly @ Sweet & Savory
“This wins in the creative category! Turning a samosa into a galette is just a brilliant idea!” — Angie

March 4, 2016 at 8:15 amEverything looks so yummy!!! So many ideas 😀
Angie says
March 4, 2016 at 8:29 amExactly! Who needs to buy a cookbook, am I right? ?
TaleOfTwoRuns says
March 4, 2016 at 8:31 amTotally right 😀
Angie says
March 4, 2016 at 8:33 am??
Ginger says
March 4, 2016 at 8:19 amOMG I am so honoured! I’ve been such a party poop lately, so I’ll take your generosity as a kick in the backside to get out more … Glad I’m not the only one who is busy, though – I have a lovely dessert in the pipeline, all I need to do is write up the post.
Have a great week, Angie!
Angie says
March 4, 2016 at 8:30 amLooking forward to the lovely dessert! I’m going to see if I can get reacquainted with my kitchen this weekend ?
Ginger says
March 4, 2016 at 8:39 amI’m ok with the kitchen part of it, it’s the getting the time to take pictures, edit them and write up the recipe bit that’s at times hard to find the time for. And I’ve been trying to refine a particular recipe to the point that I actually like the end result … give me an extra 2 hours each day and I’ll be flying!
Angie says
March 4, 2016 at 8:48 amI know exactly what you mean! Except I think I need 3 more hours. One full hour for napping! ??
Suchitra says
March 4, 2016 at 8:27 amA cookbook from Fiesta Friday people sounds wonderful! After all what are dreams for? To turn them into a reality! Happy FF!
Angie says
March 4, 2016 at 8:33 amThat’s a lovely sentiment, Su. One of these days, I’ll have all the time in the world to make all my dreams come true ??
Suchitra says
March 8, 2016 at 11:17 amAll great things started with a dream.:)
Mandi says
March 4, 2016 at 8:36 amDon’t mind me, just dreaming of a Fiesta Friday cookbook (little dancing dinner plates in my eyes!!!) Happy Fiesta Friday, Angie!
Angie says
March 4, 2016 at 8:37 amYou’ll never know, Mandi, you’ll never know! Happy FF to you, too! XOXO
Elaine @ foodbod says
March 4, 2016 at 8:41 amWonderful! All my favourite posts from last week, a perfect selection 🙂 and I completely agree, who needs cookbook when we’ve got this great resource??
Have a great weekend xxx
Angie says
March 4, 2016 at 8:49 amGreat minds think alike, Elaine! Yours and Zeba’s and Suzanne’s ??
Elaine @ foodbod says
March 4, 2016 at 8:55 amYay!!! ????
carolinescookingblog says
March 4, 2016 at 9:26 amGreat features as always! I’ve been given the odd cookbook recently but apart from one and ones I’ve had for years, I hardly look at them, I agree I get most of my inspiration from blogs these days. A FF cookbook would be great, though, so many great things could go in it!
Angie says
March 4, 2016 at 9:47 pmI did once talk to the late Selma about an FF recipe book. She had some great ideas but then we never really followed through. It’s something I still think about every now and then ?
Loretta says
March 4, 2016 at 10:46 amI’m humbled dear Fiesta Friday friends, thanks so much for featuring my post (nothing delicious in that post for sure) so thanks so much Suzanne for giving it a spotlight as one of last week’s features! Love the rest of the features too. One day I’m going to buy a rectangular tart pan like Suzanne’s – whatever she bakes in it, is just awesome, I saw that same post of hers featured elsewhere, I forget where.
Angie says
March 5, 2016 at 11:55 amBut you deserve the spotlight, Loretta. You always give us thought-provoking posts. History is important to remember. I love history so much I almost majored in it! And I’m not surprised Suzanne’s post is featured elsewhere. That tart is gorgeous!
Jhuls says
March 4, 2016 at 10:57 amI’ve been too busy this week, too. I am glad that I have managed to join this week’s FF! I missed those times where I can blog at my workplace. 😀
Amazing features, Angie! I am off to see what other have brought. Yay! Have a lovely weekend and happy FF! x
Angie says
March 5, 2016 at 11:52 amWhat?! You used to blog from work?! Now that’s what I call killing two birds with one stone! My workplace is a fortress, I get no reception unless I go out of the building! ??
Jhuls says
March 5, 2016 at 12:00 pmShhhh! My boss might hear you. Hahaha! I am sitting in front of the computer for 8 hours and I steal a time to blog when not too busy or if I finish the assigned job. But since last year, I could barely do that. 🙁
Angie says
March 5, 2016 at 12:40 pmOh that sounds like a difficult job, so you deserve the breaks! Tell your boss it’s the law to give you time to blog, lol! ??
Jhuls says
March 7, 2016 at 2:24 amMy backbone is slowly breaking, haha! I deserve to blog, yes! 😀
Josette@thebrookcook says
March 4, 2016 at 11:00 amThanks for having me co-host this week, Angie. 🙂 I agree with you… I have to remind myself to use my new cookbooks! I have lists of recipes I want to try just from Fiesta Fridays!
Angie says
March 5, 2016 at 11:46 amThanks for co-hosting!! I love it when you share recipes from your cookbooks. You pick the best to share with us, so you’re saving us all money since we don’t have to buy the books, lol!
Dad Whats 4 Dinner says
March 4, 2016 at 2:53 pmIt sure would be easy to find material for the new FF Cookbook! Have a great weekend and Happy FF!
Angie says
March 5, 2016 at 11:42 amOne book is probably not even enough to hold all these first-rate recipes. We would need several volumes, lol!
aiming4simple says
March 4, 2016 at 3:22 pmI am also so appreciative of the quality recipes shared each week! You have set a high bar, Angie!
Angie says
March 5, 2016 at 11:40 am? I’m not sure I have anything to do with it, but yes, I agree totally that many of these recipes are top-notch, best of the best!!

March 10, 2016 at 7:39 amThank you so much for featuring my samosa galette … I never thought this galette will come out soo good ..
Angie says
March 10, 2016 at 8:29 amI love your samosa galette. I’ve bookmarked it so I can make later 🙂
