Oh, hey, guys! Isn’t this world beautiful?
Isn’t sunshine amazing? Aren’t trees incredible? And the sky and the clouds, aren’t they just unbelievable?
Oh, and the air! Isn’t the air awesome? When you can actually breathe it?
You’re talking to someone who spent a good part of this week completely stuffed up, unable to breathe, here. So, pardon my excitement. My over-excitement!
But as you know, when you do get healthy again, after being sick, you start to appreciate the little things in life. You feel the world is a miraculous place and you’re happy to be in it.
And by the way, speaking of not being able to breathe, when that happens, you might as well forget eating, right? They go together. Smelling and tasting.
So, since I wasn’t eating much when I wasn’t feeling well, I’m now famished. Bring me things to eat, guys! Let’s fiesta!
First, Features!
Chicken Katsu Sushi Burger from Dini @ The Flavor Bender
“Dini always brings one of the most enticing, mouth-watering foods! I always catch myself drooling whenever she arrives at the party with all the deliciousness. I love Japanese food and this Chicken Katsu Sushi Burger is something I know I’d really enjoy.” — Jhuls
Manicotti from Suzanne @ a pug in the kitchen
“How good does that look?! Freshly made manicotti, crepe-style! It sounds so special, like something that should be reserved for the holidays.” — Angie
Mexican Shrimp Cocktail from Melody @ Meals with Mel
“When I saw those pretty shrimp cocktails, the first thing I asked myself was “Can I fit one serving in my mouth all at once?” Then I realized that I don’t think that’s possible and most importantly, I have to eat slowly to savor every bite. They are just so good – the shrimps with the winner cocktail sauce! Deliciously awesome for a shrimp lover like me!” — Jhuls
Pomegranate Mojito from Naina @ Spice in the City
“I have a slight obsession with pomegranates. I can never resist them. And mojito is one of my most favorite cocktails. So this one is begging to be tried asap! Good thing I have lots of this weed called “mint” in my backyard.” — Angie

Hi, Shaheen! Welcome to Fiesta Friday! Have fun! 😀
Glad to know that you are well, Angie. I brought Selma’s cake for you and others to enjoy. 😛 Happy Fiesta Friday! x
Thanks, Jhuls, and how very thoughtful of you to bring us a cake! Selma’s cake no less ??
So exciting that I don’t have to enjoy the cake alone. 🙂

Glad you are feeling better! Happy FF!! 🙂
Thanks, Arlene! Have a great weekend! ?
Glad you are feeling better. Allergies are booming around here also. Have a great weekend!
Thanks, Quinn. You have a great weekend, too! ??
I hear ya, Angie! Stuffed nose and a horrid cough, I feel like I’m dying a slow death! Glad that you are better! Thank you so much for featuring my mojitos!! Happy Fiesta Friday xx
Oh no, are you sick? Make sure you get plenty of liquid and rest. It’s not easy to rest, I know, but you must! I LOVE your pomegranate mojito and will be making it for sure, yum! Feel better soon! XOXO
The world is beautiful!!!! I’m loving the Spring sunshine (inbetween the showers!!).
Good to hear you’re feeling better xxxx
Thanks, hon! Now let’s hope there won’t be anymore freezing rain. I think that was what got me. Plus being with kids all day ? But the world is beautiful, totally agreed, and I’m healthy so what more can you ask, right?! ?
Nothing more at all!!! (Except of course, to remain healthy and the sun to keep shining..!!) ?
Some lovely food already! I’m looking forward to a browse and to get some inspiration too!
Me, too, Corina! I saw several already that I know I want to try ? Have a great weekend!
Glad you’re feeling better 🙂 Happy FF!!!
Thanks, Sarah! Happy weekend to you, too! XOXO
I know what you mean – I have my parents visiting just now just as the weather has settled into being nice an sunny, if still cool, and it’s been so nice to take long walks and enjoy the sunshine. Glad ou are feeling better, it’s never nice being ill!
It was terrible being sick since I had so much going on. But the sun always makes me happy and keeps me healthy. I can’t wait to soak it all up this weekend. So nice to have your mom & dad with you. Enjoy your time with them! And the kids, too! ?
It’s the yo-yo weather that is getting so many people ill. I hope you are able to feel all well again. Great weather coming up this weekend. I know where I’ll be the happiest…..*digging in the dirt*
That sounds like a good remedy for me, too! I’ve already bought all kinds of plants and seeds. I’m so excited! Have fun, Loretta! ?
Thank you Angie for featuring my manicotti. Something really weird is going on, I don’t get notifications from FF anymore. I checked in settings and I am subscribed to instant notifications. I don’t know why this is happening. Any idea’s?
Try to unsubscribe, then subscribe again, see if that works. When I tried to subscribe you manually, I got a message that the email address has opted out of notifications. I can also bring it up with WP and see if they can help. Your manicotti made me hungry!! ??
Something is going on. I un subscribed and re subscribed and I didn’t see the confirmation email I decided to check junk and there it was along with hundreds of
Emails that were not delivered to my inbox. I am horrified and don’t know what to do as they are not junk.
Check your privacy setting and see if anything has changed. It happens sometimes. But at least we found out what went wrong.
i love the look of that super healthy looking burger. You know what I made a recent discovery to help colds, I took horseradish and garlic tablets. Normally my colds last 1 – 2 months and I get them twice a year, this time it was gone within a week, hey presto, bingo, can’t complain. i hope your’e feeling better now? xx
I do feel better, but the cough lingers and at night I feel so tired, so I might give those tablets a try. Thanks, Justine! I spent my entire day today shopping for clothes, then shopping for food, now I’m pooped ??
Sounds exhausting. I think the horseradish and garlic work for early stages when it’s at the top end ie sinus etc. When it gets further down on not sure that’s the bit that always gets me. Rest and some sea air! Though you can’t buy that in a bottle x
I love spring time, staying with our son in Guernsey again and enjoying a little paddle in the freezing cold sea. Glad to hear you’re feeling better Angie xx
I’m glad you are feeling better Angie! I am really enjoying Fiesta Friday. So many inspiring people and recipes. 🙂
Everything looks delicious! Glad you are feeling better 😀
Thanks, Antonia! 🙂
This is coming a week late but THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE FEATURE!! 😀 I’ve been sick and finally catching up with everything 🙂 So great that you’re feeling better now!
I hate being sick, don’t you?! I’m glad you’re feeling better. And you’re welcome! That “burger” is amazing, just like your other sushi burger. I have them both in my list to try 😀
Angie, I’m so glad to hear that you’re feeling better! (I’ve been reading your posts, but I’ve had trouble commenting from my mobile. It’s probably my reception, not the phone itself.) Love the features as always!
Oh hi, Kaila! I’m just now trying to finish my FF post and your comment came on 🙂 You must be in some remote area. Btw, I’ve put you down as a cohost for May 6. Let me know if that’s ok.
