Fiesta Friday #109

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
 

***

Now, let’s party! Join Fiesta Friday #109 by adding your link. Don’t forget to link your post to FiestaFriday.net and the co-hosts’ blogs. Your co-hosts this week are Josette @ thebrookcook and Lily @ little sweet baker.

If you’re new to Fiesta Friday, please read the guidelines

    OMG 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!

        I’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!

    Great 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!

      I 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 ?

    I’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.

      But 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!

    I’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

      What?! 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! ??

        Shhhh! 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. 🙁

      One book is probably not even enough to hold all these first-rate recipes. We would need several volumes, lol!
