So let me tell you what I’ve been doing lately.
Slothing.
Sleeping.
Slothing and sleeping.
Or are they the same thing?
But! It’s going to change, starting from today! I swear!
Okay, I won’t swear. But I promise.
Okay, I won’t promise. But I’ll just do.
I’ll bring something to the fiesta later. Okay? I think I should at least attend my own party sometimes. With a contribution in hand. Don’t worry, I’ll have something special for all of you.
Here’s a sneak peek:
But that’s not the star of the fiesta, of course.
These are the stars!
Chocolate Stout Cake With Stout Ganache
from Hannah @ Domestic Gothess
“This sounds very different and intriguing…stout and yeast and chocolate, oh my. Pictures made my mouth water.” — Liz
“This looks like such a serious sort of cake – not fluffy – but complex, thoughtful- the kind you’d look forward all day to having a slice of after dinner at night.” — Lindy
Bacon, Caramelized Onion, 3 Cheese Grilled Cheese Sandwich
from Justine @ Born And Bred In Brooklyn
“Because, BACON” — Lindy
“These look sooo good, OMG! It’s after 11pm now and I want one of these sandwiches, desperately! NOW! STAT! I guess I know what I’ll be making tomorrow.” — Angie
Bahn Mi-Style Soft Shell Crab Sandwich
from Caroline @ Caroline’s Cooking
“I could feel the crunch in these sandwiches. Soft shelled crabs have such a short season and should be highlighted.” — Liz
Meyer Lemon Ricotta Pancakes
from Andrea @ Cooking with a Wallflower
“I love anything with lemon, combine it with ricotta in a pancake and I will eat these for breakfast any Sunday.” — Liz

Angie says
June 24, 2016 at 8:20 amLol, Deb! Yes, haha… cherry on top. In fact that’s what I name the photo, just cherry on top. I hope I can finish the post today and link to my own fiesta! ?

Angie says
June 24, 2016 at 8:26 amHi, cohost! So glad to have your approval! Though last night I couldn’t sleep until very late. Was glued to the TV watching Brexit results. Quite stunning!
Elaine @ foodbod says

Angie says
June 24, 2016 at 9:41 amYup! You’re absolutely right! I do have a garden that’s threatening to transform into a jungle, though, lol. So I will have to move sometimes, boo…
Sarah James @ Tales From The Kitchen Shed says
June 24, 2016 at 10:06 amSounds like you’re having a well earned rest Angie. What a fab round up, feeling like a sandwich now. Thanks for hosting a wonderful party, have a fab weekend x
Angie says
June 24, 2016 at 10:48 amThat sandwich, omgz! Am I right? I better get started on it right now before the kids take control of the menu. Happy FF!

Love the features and your cherry image is just to die for! Wow!
Thanks for another lovely Fiesta Friday party, no week is the same without it! Have a lovely weekend. 🙂 x
Angie says
June 24, 2016 at 2:08 pmGlad you like the cherry on top image, Petra. I’ve been playing a little with my camera settings ? No fiesta is the same without you, darling! ??
Sarah 'n Spice says
June 24, 2016 at 12:47 pmStarting tomorrow I need to catch up on my sleep! I’m going to relax ALL weekend and not leave the couch or change out of my PJ’s. Sometimes you just need it, right? Happy FF and great features as always 🙂
Angie says
June 24, 2016 at 2:10 pmGo for it! I highly recommend and approve, Sarah! Why bother changing if you’re going to nap every couple of hours, anyway, lol… Happy FF and weekend! ?

June 24, 2016 at 1:39 pmStruggled to stay up until 9:00 last night and went to bed before it was dark – that rarely happens. Guess I needed my zzzzzzzz’s – you too obviously. Sleep and even relaxing is a good thing Angie 🙂
Angie says
June 24, 2016 at 2:14 pmI’ve had those nights, Judi! In fact it happened on Wednesday. Probably coz I went out with my girlfriend to a BYOB and she brought some yummy peach wine, lol. I went home and hit the sack pronto ?
cookingwithauntjuju.com says
June 24, 2016 at 2:42 pmThat would put me to sleep too lol – wine always does it! This time I was tired – long week with my large stone patio being redone, air went out at the same time and problems with Windows 10/WordPress and uploading pictures. Patio is finished, air is back on and my computer is still a problem.
Angie says
June 25, 2016 at 9:29 amPhew, sounds like you had your hands full. Yay for the air is back on! That would be my #1 headache ??

June 25, 2016 at 12:20 pm🙂 🙂 🙂
Sherry says
June 24, 2016 at 8:52 pmThanks so much for hosting the party!
Angie says
June 25, 2016 at 9:27 amNo problem, Sherry. Thanks for joining! ?
apuginthekitchen says
June 24, 2016 at 10:06 pmHappy FF Angie, all features are drool worthy and looking forward to your contribution.
Angie says
June 25, 2016 at 9:26 amPost written, Suzanne, but I can’t seem to take good photos anymore. So not satisfied with what I’ve got. Or maybe I’m just way too critical. Anyway, I’ll try to post asap.
Antonia says
June 25, 2016 at 10:18 amWow, that cake looks amazing! Great features this week Angie! I can’t wait to see what you are planning 😀
Angie says
June 27, 2016 at 10:55 pmI haven’t posted ‘coz I wasn’t happy with the pictures, even though the recipe was solid, but I think I’m now persuaded to just publish the post anyway. Tomorrow, ok? ?
Justine @ Born and Bred in Brooklyn says
June 25, 2016 at 11:25 amAh! Such an honor to be featured!! Thanks so much for choosing my recipe, my weekend has been made! 😀
Angie says
June 27, 2016 at 10:53 pmYou’re welcome, Justine! I did make grilled cheese sandwiches but didn’t have the chance to make caramelized onions to go with them, so there’ll be take 2 SOON!! ??
Liz @ spades, spatulas, and spoons says
June 25, 2016 at 11:50 amIt sounds like an idilic way to spend the early part of summer! You have earned a break.
Angie says
June 27, 2016 at 10:49 pmThanks, Liz! I desperately need to clean my garden, though. Maybe tomorrow. Right now I’m busy. Busy slothing, lol!
eclecticoddsnsods says
June 25, 2016 at 3:16 pmit sounds like you need to take a break Angie. Sleeping and slothing sounds very godo and seriously how can you make a cherry look sooooo good? x
Angie says
June 27, 2016 at 10:47 pmHmm, that cherry picture? You’re the second person to say you like it. Maybe it’s not so bad after all. Maybe I’ll publish the post. Was thinking pictures weren’t good enough; that’s why I haven’t posted. I’ll give it a second thought, I guess. But tomorrow. Right now I’m busy slothing ?
eclecticoddsnsods says
June 28, 2016 at 3:46 amIt’s gorgeous and yes sloth away you deserve it, ….snore snore 🙂 x
Caroline @ Caroline's Cooking says
June 25, 2016 at 6:05 pmSorry for being late to the party, I am in the UK visiting family, but what a lovely surprise to find I have been featured! Thank you, thank you. Enjoy your slothing and seeping – I am so jealous!
Angie says
June 27, 2016 at 10:42 pmOh, you’re in the thick of Brexit, aren’t you?! It’s been on the news all day long over here! My goodness, it’s really stunning! I guess we have to wait and see now what’ll happen. Have fun with your family. At least you can say you’re there when history is being made ?
Patty Nguyen says
June 26, 2016 at 7:15 pmSlothing and sleeping are the best summer activities. Hands down. 😀
Angie says
June 27, 2016 at 10:34 pmI hope you’re doing a lot of both, too, Patty! Let’s sloth together! ??
Patty Nguyen says
June 27, 2016 at 10:40 pmSlothing is better with company! ?
Angie says
June 27, 2016 at 10:44 pmLawl, Patty! I thought you were going to say you sloth in private, haha ?
Patty Nguyen says
June 27, 2016 at 10:49 pm???

nusrat2010 says
July 1, 2016 at 2:57 amQuite a fun party going on here 🙂 Every time I think of you, I’m like, “I’m gonna join the party this Friday”….but it never happened! Either I get swamped with this and that chores or I forget …you know how it goes with dealing with a toddler and a newborn!
Came here to say Hello <3
Angie says
July 1, 2016 at 8:11 amHi, Nusrat! Glad you came to say hello. You can always stop by and say hello even if you can’t join 🙂 We’d be very happy to chat with you! How are the kids? I hope everyone is doing well. We’ve been enjoying our summer. Maybe a little too much 😀
